If you answered mostly A then you’re likely to prefer practical and traditional furniture, such as farmhouse or cottagecore styles. Your dining room needs to be a versatile space for various meals throughout the week, adorned with items that make life easier. Go for a solid oak dining table that will be enjoyed by generations of family for years to come. Choose a soft covered dining chair that can swivel, so you can face your loved ones while chatting.
If you answered mostly B then your dining room is likely to be a bold and bright space for meals, regular entertaining and parties. Your décor taste is inspired by on-trend designers, statement pieces and feature furnishings. Go for a stylish glass table with solid oak legs, which will help to bring light into the room to offset any deeper colours. Choose a comfy velvet chair with armrests to support you as you socialise long into the early hours.
If you answered mostly C then you’re likely to only use your dining room for evening meals and more formal dining such as intimate dinner parties. Go for a luxurious marble tabletop with solid oak legs. Complement the space with a soft velvet chair with elegant finishes that will offer hours of comfort for those after-dinner conversations.
If you answered mostly D then you’re likely to prefer a calming dining space with a minimalist or Scandi-style décor scheme. Go for a modern dining table with chrome or black metal legs and a painted wooden tabletop. When it comes to seating, a comfy chair with a low back and armrests will allow you to relax and catch up with your partner after a long day.
When you’re looking to upgrade your dining room, then it’s worth considering every detail before you complete the look. Always consider how the room will be used and by whom before you select your furniture and tableware. If you have a young family, for example, it might be best to balance aesthetics with functionality.
Small touches can create a big impact. Pick a shade from a pattern or furnishing, use this as your accent colour, and match to certain tableware items. From beautiful dining chairs to stunning tables and sumptuous furnishings, every element matters when you are redesigning your dining area.
