it's difficult to say whether these are successful or not without knowing more about the brief. In most of them the chair seems lost against the background. 4 and 8 are better than the rest, but I don't really see the point of setting the chair in that context. If she's studying interior design why has she put an indoor chair outdoors?
Also, the pictures don't show much evidence of having been 'styled'. Typically when I think of a stylist being involved in a shoot she is normally there to make the food or clothes look right within the scene that the art director has directed and the photographer has shot. For interior design I imagine the stylist is making sure that the details of the set are correct - for instance, that the curtains are hanging properly, the chairs are at the correct angle, the mirrors are clean, and so on. However, this is not my world, so maybe I'm completely wrong.
