This seating ensemble from Trexta Inc. is a study in color, form, and simplicity. Covered in no-frills foam and fabric, these green and yellow stools pop against their exhibit's stark-white background. Meanwhile, the repetition of circular forms adds another eye-catching element.

A bit of pattern and some variations in size can elevate mere stools to the level of fashionable furniture. These fabriccovered finds crank up the exhibit's modern aesthetic, while the entire grouping offers ample room for both single occupants and small groups traveling en masse.

Please meet Ernest, Frank, and Henry, three "pouffes" from London - or rather from London-based furniture manufacturer SCP Ltd. Resembling Shaq-sized hacky sacks, these upholstered low-profile gems feature a knitted-wool exterior design and an update on the traditional beanbag chair.

How do you transform a square chair into a fun form? You play around with its color and shape. These stools from BeMatrix feature a cutout square at their core accentuated with a bright-white hue, along with a neon-green exterior finish. The combo is a hole-hearted success.

Positioned atop a faux forest floor of green shag carpet, these glossy, hard-plastic stools are the perfect accent for a woodland-themed exhibit. In varying shades of dark brown, beige, and white, these stumpy stools offer weary attendees a neat retreat for their seats.

What can a touch of color do for you? Used correctly, it can capture attendees' attention, and maybe even lure their feet toward your seats. While they're little more than four-legged, square chairs, these neon orange and green stools add a splash of color - and a dose of drama.
