dining table please help!!

last year

I want to buy new table and chairs for my kitchen. I am sooo confused and can’t make up my mind. Kitchen is very light grey and concrete gray, black appliances, while callacata worktops. White walls, light grey blinds, oak tile floors. Do I go with a black table and white chairs? Or black chairs and oak table? I love the eames DSW chairs… PLEASE HELP!!!!

I would step away from the black and choose a wooden table (think light wood like birch) with white chairs, or a mixture of pastels. My sister has Eames style chairs which have a padded sear so pretty comfortable. Rather like this

I think something lighter would work better, an oak table with grey or dark chairs for a pop? And maybe a nice rug under it?

Totally agree with S Z. A good flat weave rug to protect your floor but also so you don’t have wood directly on wood. The table is likely to be a different shade from the floor and you’ll need something to break it up.

I think an oak table and black chairs will look great..the Eames DSW chairs are timeless and comfortable but can look a bit office like.

Also look at options from Kartell and Hay if you want something stylish but a bit cheaper.

I like the Hay J77 chairs in black

And also the Kartell Master in black

They are more “open” in style as they are not solid.

So many choices.

Your kitchen looks great by the way

If you want custom cream panelling built from scratch, it is likely to take you more than three weeks to line up a contractor, get it built and then painted. If you want to use beadboard (thin, lightweight, cheap) you can do it yourself if you are good at the small precision cuts around the wood window trim and behind the radiators. You can get a custom built wood cover with doors for your tv or use the painting over tv disguise made with hinges. I think the room is beautiful as it is. Spend some money on a truly beautiful, impressive chandelier, have it centered over the table. If you want to impress relatives at an event, the chandelier is the way to go. Clean the windows for extra sparkle. If you are in the US, try Home Decorators http://www.homedecorators.com for DVD storage cabinets that are closed. I would not get a rug for this room unless I was ready to get it cleaned frequently and I could find one that looked good with dog hair on it and did not show stains. A good quality, highly patterned wool Oriental rug will do that job nicely. Such a rug is an investment and may take longer than three weeks to find.

I'd be happy to help you with your design if you'd like. A 106cm table is on the small side. However, if there is only two of you and you don't expect any guests this should suffice. Email me your measurements of the space and I'd be happy to create a layout for you. kerrybryaninteriors@outlook.com Kerry

Have lots of space and am looking for 8 seater min, with perhaps extending to 10. Rectangular or Circular, but think rectangular would work best. Kitchen pic is of showroom, my kitchen is being fitted at the moment. I have wood effect tiles in bleached blonde on the floor and have chosen a very modern over table light. Thanks in advance.

We had a glass dining table and want to move away from that...my kids would get it dirty. I am exploring wood or faux marble but I am having a hard time deciding...

Another vote for a lighter wood. Your kitchen is smart but maybe whole room needs a lift with lighter tones. Good luck with your decision making.

Hi monicamb, it would be nice to incorporate the oak of the flooring with the dining table you could go for an oak and black mix.

I would recommend an oak table with maybe black wishbone chairs with rattan seating. Extremely comfy. Black table would be too harsh for your scheme.
