dining table & chairs dilema

8 years ago

We have a lovely oak dining table but the faux leather chairs have seen better days. We have seen some dining chairs which are faux leather in cream (to match the kitchen units) but with chrome legs rather than oak. Do you think having contemporary chairs would work with an oak table? Many thanks.

Difficult to comment when we can't see an image which is needed really when you're talking about mixing styles. It can/can't work depending on the situation and products involved. How about recovering your existing chairs?

How about a modern mid century interpretation with a glass or marble or white top, but still with the slim tapered legs? Heals have got a lovely one called Fawn Tink Table Blue for £1499. Wayfair have similar ones and the Gastonia Extended Table caught my eye at £549.99.

Some of my customers can't make the decision on buying a set of Dining Table and Upholstered Dining Chairs which are already matched by the furniture designer or matching the dining table and chairs by themselves to have their own styles. How do you think? For more choices, please click this video and you may find you loved one.

Hi, Thank you for the photos, now I have a better understanding of the whole area. Yes, the sofa looks better after turning it around, but if you`re planning to buy a new one (or loveseats), it would be better to think about some modular sofas. They are easy to move in a space and you can match different sizes and colours as well. What do you mean with the option “c) separate the nook area with 3 white wood panels hanging from the beam”? Sorry, but it was clear to me. Regarding the TV nook I was thinking about the option to leave the TV and the cabinet where they are and use the walkthrough path between the column and the half wall as a storage place (see photo). You can place there a shelving system, which can be used from the dining area as well. You mentioned that you don`t like bumping into the sofa after entering the room. What about to create a small hallway and use some room dividers to make it cosy entrance, where you can sit down to take off your shoes and leave the keys and bags on a side table? The room divider should be something massive (wood or metal), but also something transparent to avoid creating dark corners. The playing nook can be placed in the corner next to the seating area (adding extra lounge chair optionally) and the home office on the other side of the dining area . Now I hope that you have enough inspirations and options to think about. Good luck and enjoy your new layout! Regards, Mariann
