Greetings!This is my kitchen with dining room.I need advice how could
Comments (2)hi. Do you just want to zone the areas? You could do this in a few different ways such as a rug under the dining table, different lights in each area, curtains in the dining area etc. You could also paint 3 walls the same and have a feature wallpaper or paint in the dining room. Or paint all walls the same colour but use different accent colours in each area (all colours that work together). Or if you want a more solid divide use a breakfast bar or island etc. you could also use different flooring but if you opt for that keep both floors the same colour. Personally I think you need to be careful though that the space also works as one I would keep the zoning fairly simple...See MoreNeed advice for awkward open-plan living/dining room
Comments (5)I would raise the curtain poles up and make more of the windows. I would suggest a round dining table, extendable as mentioned. I think as it is a new build you probably need to keep to modern with an eclectic twist. Changing the flooring doesn't need to be over expensive but would make the room feel bigger and would give you more flexibility. I would use warm neutrals on the walls and use colour in your soft furnishings, rug and accessories. A few fab pieces of art with colour would look great. As mentioned above you could easily change the point for the TV. Use good quality wood floating shelves and you can have a space at the back pre-cut on order for the wires to go down and hide wiring and access by a cable tidy in a neautral colour for the walls. This will take away furniture on the floor taking up space for the TV and digital box, Xbox etc. Making the room feel bigger and this TV was on special bracket so you can bring the TV out and re-position or tilt up and down. Picture from past project including floating shelves and cable tidy. These shelves are in walnut with oak stripes on the front but there are many different woods you could choose from....See MoreBlank canvas dining room! Advice please
Comments (3)I think wallpaper might make the room look smaller. Warm grey would be good, with a lighter shade on the other walls. The table legs look painted - you could paint the chairs too, to tone in with the walls, or alternatively contrast with them in a colour that would tie in with the rug. A large mirror on the right hand wall would help the illusion of more space, and pictures elsewhere, small ones in different shapes but same colour frames artistically arranged. More lights will be good....See MoreLiving room and dining room advice
Comments (22)The Persian rug is lovely. We have several (sitting room, study, hall, bedroom ..... they're a bit addictive), with fabric using a couple of the colours in each for stuff like cushions, curtains etc. with neutral walls. I agree with minnie about the patterns. To get the right colour combinations, at a reasonable price, you could find a company that does a range with the colour or colours you're looking for and then look for remnants on ebay, to get them at bargain prices. That's worked well for us. Stuff like this:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Schumacher-Curtain-Fabric-PASHA-PAISLEY-2m-POMEGRANATE-100-WOOL-/322509242456?hash=item4b170c8058:g:DwsAAOSw42JZAwWm And if you're looking for another rug to complement the one you've got, www.carpetu2.co.uk has a massive range on-line, at better prices than I've been able to find here. They're actually in Greece, but don't charge for shipping, which is very fast....See MoreSara
