Something is off but I can't put my finger on it.

Could you switch the chairs and see if that makes a difference.

I would paint that coffee table an off which to go with the other tables.

Can it be returned?

I like it. Is it comfortable?

IMO the 2 things fight eachother and since I love the rug I would have done a nice dark gray/ blue fabric with a bit of texture for the chair. Please get some nice barstools in that space those just do not work IMO If that is a reliner sofa the coffee table is pretty useles so maybe a bit more info. I also do not think the 2 rugs work together and from what I see the DR one is not big enough to allow chairs to sit fully on the rug when pulled out , you need the rug to be at 3’ bigger than the table on all sides.

My vote is “go”. The rug really overpowers it, and the scale seems off with your other furniture ... as well as the tones of white between the new chair and leather not playing well (although that might be my monitor).

I’m all for mixing patterns, but these just don’t work in my eyes. I think you need a chair with a stronger presence, and not too match-y with the blues.

The chair is classic/traditional while the rug is contemporary/modern -- they are fighting each other. One of them needs to go.

Go solid. Diss the aqua and soft blues in the room.

IMO, the chair and rug both need to go. Maybe the chair wouldn't be so bad with a different rug. I guess what it comes down to is, do you love the chair and the rug ? It's your home, and you're the one who needs to live with your things and be comfortable with them.

Thank you all. I love the rug it stays. The chair goes. I’ll do a solid as suggested I’m pretty sure that is the answer! I love the one pictured. I My just shop for that one. Enjoy your day😎

I also think the tog and chair fight each other.
How about a gray chair fabric and stead.

yes, the rug is lovely. Glad you can return the chair.

Sorry...it's the rug. It is so distracting. Love the chair.

For me, the the TV stand is too glaring white. It could be the picture on my monitor.

There is so much visual motion in that rug, that everything else in the room needs to be subdued so that it can take center stage and not have anything else to compete with. For that reason, I'd ditch the chair (I'm actually surprised a designer suggested it), and I'd also find another rug for the dining space - or go without one there completely.

I like the rug with the other furniture and the coffee table color looks fine. You'll probably be happier with a solid or textured fabric chair.

You're probably working your way to other things, but I'd also think about a rug in the dining room that is more subtle to let the living room rug be the star.

I am not surprised a designer chose that chair. I like it with that rug. The striped throw shown on the blue chair would look better than the pale blue one on the sofa. The coffee table is a little small. An oval a little longer than the diameter of the present one would echo the curves in the rug.

I love both the rug and the chair. The issue IMO is that the rest of the room is not complete. You require accessories that carry through that unique Violet Blue Color. Also the dining room rug competes and should be changed to a gray and white/beige pattern in a plaid that carries through the pattern of the chair.

Possible rugs for the dining room area.

Art to continue the color scheme.

meh, the chair is too busy there. I love the rug though. I'm a big fan of furniture being solid colors, and using a pattern in the rug to mask the inevitable wear & tear.

that rug is attention grabbing though. honestly, I'd ditch the dining table rug because of it.

Can you identify the label on the rug? It is stunning, and your designer is ahead of the curve in terms of design trends, as more patterns, wallpaper, and patterned drapery are all on the way back after a decade of minimalism.

I love the rug too, but agree you need a solid fabric on the chair to go with it.
