Hey Guys and Gals,
I just restored it in two colors......
Let me know what you think.

Good and bad criticism accepted. My ego files bad criticism as sarcasm:)

Thanks!

awesome!
I know it's not original Knoll colors but it's my "modern interpretation of an MCM icon." *cheesy*

Two colors
Orleans,
As an individual chair in that setting it appeals to me. Usage in an entry hall type description (short periods of time) seems correct.

Do come in orange.
It's an interesting look.

My 3 kids all
went to Clemson, so it could have only been better if you had painted the top half purple.
It's cute, real, and not too far off standard. Love it!

Nice,but...
IMO,the upper half would be more harmonious,yet visually arresting if it were Yellow instead of White.Nothing wrong with the white,though-Just a thought.

you're right
I tried the yellow seat with orange base and it was "visually arresting". I like that phrase:)
I guess it all depends on the space. If I would design a space for children with some type visual element being a large mural as literal as that of the sun, I'd definitely go with yellow/orange......but I wouldn't let the kids sit on the chairs without adult supervision:) ha!

I vote present
I vote present (parliamentary procedure) on these five chairs. Distressed pieces (I can only hope that they were not in good original condition) painted a multitude of bright colors is tedious. The original photo of the single example dual color (yellow and white) chair is an exceptable experiment.

The two-toned version...
The two-toned version smokes. It appears to be pretty tight work.
Good job.
Best,
Mark

condition
don't worry Ark, the condition of the chairs when first acquired was really unacceptable.....very active indoor / outdoor food court in a downtown highrise for about 40 years.
thanks guys and gals....i thought you'd like to see a bunch of colorful restored Bertoias!....and a couple quintessential/overly seen MCM fiberglass chairs.
