The conventional wisdom around dining chairs is that they should be the same, maybe even purchased as part of a set. Luckily, Venus Williams has never been scared to throw the rule book out the window.
She rejects dogma in favor of a mismatched approach to dining table seating for a stunning result in her sister Serena Williams's dining room, which she shared on her design firm's Instagram. In 2021, Venus's firm, VStarr, worked with Serena to transform her Florida Spanish-style home into a modern masterpiece, including the unique dining room. In addition to the dozens of pendant lights hanging from the ceiling, the most interesting feature is that rather than sticking only to wooden chairs, Venus uses both wooden and gray sherpa chairs (like these from Wayfair) around Serena's farmhouse dining table.
