Ideas for Arranging Your Dining Area

It would seem that the secret of arranging the dining area in the apartment is simple - a table and chairs. However, the designers assure that there is also room for imagination here.

In small apartments, the dining area is in the kitchen or living room. In the dining area, for example, mirrors can create wonders: place a large floor mirror next to the table, and a table for 4 guests looks like a dining room for 8.

If you have a very compact dining area, skip high-backed chairs because they look too bulky. Look for small stools, backless benches, or neat low-backed chairs. By the way, a great way to trick the eye is chairs and tables made of acrylic, plexiglass or glass.

We advise you to objectively assess the size of the table for your family needs. If 2-3 people live in an apartment if you do not cook and eat at home so often, does it make sense to occupy half of the kitchen area with a massive rectangular kitchen table? Look for small round or oval tables. Avoid sharp corners in a small room. The best way to find appropriate furniture for any needs is to do it online, because of the wide choice Nyfurnitureoutlets can offer you.

In modern layouts, you can find a studio where the kitchen is combined with the living room. There is usually enough space in the studio, and you can plan a full-fledged dining area for 6-8 people, highlight it beautifully.

However, there are also small studios. In this case, a small round table on the border of the kitchen and living area can act as both a dining place and a work place. It is not worth cluttering it with chairs, it is better to put exactly as much as the owners themselves need for every day. However, the chairs themselves should be soft, with comfortable chair backs, so that it is comfortable to sit behind them for a long time.

However, you can refuse the traditional table in compact studios. So, replace it with an elongated kitchen island with high bar stools. Of course, this option is not suitable for a large family, but it will be quite convenient for young and active people.

By the way, the tables do not have to be high. They can be an extension of the kitchen countertop. The main decorative element will be original chairs.

But it is possible to arrange tete-a-tete dinner in the bedroom if its area allows you to put a table with a couple of chairs there. It is advisable to place them near a window or in a niche. Tea drinking in the bedroom will add intimacy and romance to the process. Although, of course, only the owners themselves can use such a refectory, you still need to provide a table in the kitchen for guests.

In a kitchen with an area of 8-10 square meters, you can already put a round or oval table not against the wall, but place it at a distance so that you can sit on all sides. It also looks very beautiful when the dining area is highlighted with light - a chandelier, pendant lamps or other lighting solutions.

Large bay windows in the kitchen are the perfect place for a dining table, large or small. By the way, a mobile kitchen chest of drawers on wheels can be used as an additional table. On weekdays, it will become a work surface for cooking, and in case of many guests, it will turn into a buffet.
