The dining room table is more than just a purposeful room; it can bring together your entire home. Although it may seem simple enough to just add in a table and set of chairs, the space needs to be cohesive and practical too.
There is a fine balance to master; standard manufactured pieces can feel impersonal and clunky. Antiques can also have a pretentious feel to them. But updating your dining room with custom dining room furniture can be the right fit for your home.
Custom-built furniture can be extremely beneficial to the average homeowner. It gives you freedom of expression, is specific to your space, and gives you real value for money. But it’s only one part of a well-designed space.
Prepare To Plan
The advantage of shopping for custom pieces is that you can have furniture made that suits your style, budget and space. You can mix and match pieces, add functionality to your table, and add accents that bring comfort and warmth to your home.
Material choice, sizing and even maintenance are all up to you when you shop custom. Planning where you want to place your furniture can help the flow of the room, how you want to decorate it, and if it works with your overall objectives.
Consider Your Colours
If you intend for your dining room to be an extension of the rest of your home, it is important to style it similarly. This includes the colour scheme you work with. When you go with loud tones and vibrant hues, you can create a statement space. But this may look garish against the backdrop of your home.
We advise clients to consider the overall aesthetic of their home and to match their updated dining room accordingly. It’s the focal point of any home, but it should not overpower it.
Focus on the Flooring
Practical flooring is a must in the dining room, but it is also important to remember that it adds to the complete look of the space. If you do not intend on redoing your floors, then adding luxurious rugs and carpets can uplift the room. If you have a very minimalist home, taking away additions such as mats can actually work in your favour.
However, if you are considering redoing your floors, materials such as wood and concrete are good options to start with. Wood can complement your furniture, and concrete can add a modern twist.
