There are several methods to carve out a dining area, from being picky with the seats you choose to finding ways to Tetris pieces together. Here are a few tips for fitting a dining table into a small living area. It’s time to think beyond the box.
Make the most of the space by utilizing the decor.
There is a way if there is a will. If your living room and kitchen are connected but have a little wall separator, make use of it. Decorate your dining area with highlights such as a chandelier over your table, a mirror or painting directly in front, and a small bar cart wedged into the corner. All of these characteristics indicate that this is not a component of the living room, but rather a separate dining area.
Don’t Be Afraid to Layer
When it comes to a small space, the conventional consensus is that “less is more.” However, this isn’t always the case. Don’t be scared to layer your furniture if you need to squeeze in a dining table. After all, you need to make the most of the available space. Take a page from Igor’s playbook. He placed his circular dining table in the middle of the room, between a towering bookcase and a squat cabinet, and it works perfectly.
Accent with Art
Try hanging a sideboard on the wall and accenting it with art to make your eating area seem distinct from the rest of the living room. Hanging the sideboard saves room and offers you the opportunity to add more decor. During dinner parties, the floating shelf can also be used to hold side dishes or wine bottles.
Compact Chairs should be used
Choose seats that will tuck right in and take up the minimal room rather than bulky chairs that will widen the diameter of your table. The geometric shape of these rolling chairs makes a statement while tucked underneath the table.
