Refined black-and-white seating proves to be anything but boring.

Slim Down

Clean modernism prevails with the handwoven Steelheart Dining Chairs, made from cotton cord and powder- coated stainless steel in the Brooklyn studio of Peg Woodworking. Unique patterns decorate each piece, which can be customized for a mix and match effect. pegwoodworking.com

ROUND ABOUT

A sculptural, arc-shaped back is the focal point of Dmitriy & Co’s substantial Arp Chair shown upholstered in Pierre Frey’s Bridget fabric. The pursuit of form, silhouette and comfort drives the exquisite design. dmitriyco.com

LINEAR EFFECT

The Newson Aluminum Chair by Marc Newson for Knoll is defined by a single uninterrupted line and pays homage to the designs of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. This chic, contemporary interpretation features a mesh seat and back for added ergonomic support. knoll.com

BLACK OUT

A true object of art, the Ala Chair by Alexander Diaz Andersson for Atra is crafted from mahogany wood that is dyed a rich, black charcoal hue. Angular, aerodynamic lines create a sinuous shape that hints to the name Ala—or wing in Spanish. atraform.com

BETTER TOGETHER

French furniture company Liaigre is known for its masterful use of black and white in creating furnishings that are both functional and beautiful. The Robinson Dining Chair and Armchair, originally made for yachts, as well as the wood back Toiras Armchair are all done in oak with a wire-brushed finish. liaigre.com

DOUBLE TROUBLE

Jazz up your space with these playful metal Twiggy Chairs from Noir. The continuous cantilever creations seem to defy gravity while also adding a touch of whimsy to a room as side or accent seating. noirfurniturela.com
