If you have done things right people won't be sure if you have done anything at all.

Tricky shot, i see what you're going for. The sun is a bit intense and what i'd have done is gotten closer to the chair and bumped down the exposure, darkening the room more but lessening the blowout of the chair. Another slight imperfection would be the amount of dull area at the top and left of the shot which could be remedied by pulling the camera back, to the left and zooming a touch (and/or different lens, if available).

I believe in trying not to stifle a person's experimentations in photography so I offer this purely as an opinion and to arm you with more thoughts for future shooting.

I agree with Yaggy. Contrast is a big factor in most UE photography, but highlights are equally important for capturing the atmosphere. The highlights are too dodged out of the chair; maybe use some burning to offset in post-process and be more aware of the specular light source when you're setting up.
