Tips for designing your dining room to be functional, friendly and aesthetic
Advice for the design of your functional, friendly and aesthetic dining room. In general, it is best to place the table in the center of the room. However, if you want to integrate it into the living room area, you can opt for an open plan.
You will then place the dining room in a corner and choose the shape that suits you.
The dining table Design tips
When designing your dining room, the first thing you need to do is choose a table that is well proportioned to the size of the room. You should also consider how many people will be sitting around.
If your space is rather small, opt for a round table to save space.
Choose a table with a diameter of no more than 50 inches, to facilitate conversations between table members.
However, if you want to have room for eight people, a rectangular or oval table will work best.
Chairs Design tips
The choice of chairs should be proportional to the height of the table. Remember to choose a chair that is comfortable enough for a two-hour meal. To avoid making your room look cluttered, keep a space of about one meter behind your chairs.
This leaves room for you and your guests to get up and move around the table.
Wall colors
If you want to spice up your dining area, don’t hesitate to opt for a wild color on the walls. This will instantly make your space come alive.
In general, a dining room should have warm colors on the walls, such as a deep, rich rust or, if you prefer, a dark green or blue.
You can also match a patterned wallpaper or tapestry of your choice for a more modern impact. However, if you prefer a simple neutral color on the walls, then you can add colored elements elsewhere.
This can be in a painting for example or from other accessories like carpet or cushions. The light fixture can bring a lot of actant to the room, an item not to be neglected.
Accessories and floral arrangements
If you’re a flower lover, this is your chance to make a statement and add flowers to your dining room. A well-designed centerpiece can add a special essence to your room and enhance your mood, while making the room more inviting.
Define with a mat
In an open design, you will need to define the dining room space. Adding a carpet can do the job perfectly. You can get creative with the patterns and textures you want to mix into the space and complement your furniture.
