How do you feel about chairs that look like hands? Do you want one of your very own or do you shy away from this kind of furniture?

    It depends how strong of a statement it makes. In a way its bold and striking, but thats exactly what some spaces need. In the photo above, the chair does a great job balancing the white space, however, it feels a little bit ominous and scary. I would go with black, but perhaps use something that calls for less attention. The coffee table makes a statement and so do the two "funky" chairs. Perhaps too many items that have eclectic things going on?

    I think if I was into Marvel and DC comic book art, Roy Lichtenstein's pop paintings, and other similar types of work and colors and had an all modern-decor house, a hand chair would fit perfectly. It seems out of place in the picture above.

    I agree -- only in the proper setting, LOL...otherwise, mostly a no.

    I like the idea of pulling black in the room since you have printed black curtains in the adjacent area. I would remove the hand chair looks a little strange to me. Maybe you like the interesting shape and solid color of the chair. Would you consider removing or recovering the fabric chairs...you could select a fabric to pull a hint of black into the space. You could also get a rug with a more vibrant color to pull the room and bold red and blue painting together.

    I could see this in décor with a very modern flair. The chair would not look right in my home, but I could see it in a very contemporary home.

    On first sight amusing - on second sight boring - on third sight annoying! Not a good investment.

    In this setting, no. In another application, with less going on, I think it might really work! - Janis, GKB

    I agree. I think it belongs in a home or office that is contemporary modern, with minimal accessories.

    I say do what makes you feel good; you only live once and if you want a hand on your behind everytime you sit down....go for it.

    No way, it does not even look nice in the picture. But I agree that in a more minimalist setting, maybe, but that is a big maybe.

    I think there is a place for them where they can add a whimsical accent or a statement. Think of someone in the art world using it in their home office, or in a playroom as a fun and playful accent piece. There is definitely a space where they work and in turn spaces that should avoid them at all cost!

    Yes, I am chair crazy. I would buy every designer chair possible if I had the money & the room. Well, if I had the money, I would buy them all & rotate them out of & into storage.

    For me NO, maybe in a kids room or a man cave.

    @River Valley Cabinet Works: You summed up my thoughts perfectly. I kind of reminds of Another Cinderella Story and the white hand chair in the living room.
