Dining room we just finished using the raw wood look and french country chairs. 

MIXING IT UP!

To keep the dining room feeling casual - mix it up.  Don't purchase a dining room set! Although a matching dining set can be beautiful, it can also be boring; instead give your space a collected-over-time look with mismatched furniture.  Tip: Select your table first because it's much easier to find chairs that work with the table's height than the other way around. Also pay attention to the function as well as the form when shopping for chairs - choose one that are sturdy and comfortable so guests will want to linger.   
Flank the ends with the same - and the sides with a contrast.  This look showing Chinese and slip covered are a perfect example.


 
Dining Room tables can be very large.  Please make sure they fit your elevator.  We do not give refunds for items that cannot be delivered.

Area between table legs  - make sure that the chairs fit between the legs of the table.  Leave about 3" between the leg and the other chair.  If you are using 2 chairs that are 20" wide - you need at least 49" between the legs.  For good design - use at least 6" if you have the space or 58" between the legs

Height of dining room chair seat:  The average size table is 30" high and the average seat is 19"  If you change either of them - you need to change the other accordingly.

Area around the chair - when a chair is pulled out for a person to sit down - you need 36", meaning don't get surrounding furniture too close.

REMEMBER:  the average person only needs 18" to walk through an area.   But a pulled out chair needs 36"

Dual Purpose

There is never enough room in most flats for our books - so we all need bookcases.  Add one to your dining room area and see how cozy the room will feel.  Your guests will be so impressed.   Keep the shelves organized and balanced with accessories.

Dining rooms can be an extension of the living area - not just for eating.  Pull together comfortable furniture so you can do homework, surf the internet, or just read a good book in a cozy vignette. Your dinner guests will also feel at home.

 
SIMPLE FARM TABLE

Basic design to dress up or down.  Add clear modern ghost chairs, French carved, or upholstered high backs.
