Family
Room
As
fewer of our homes have formal living rooms on the West Coast and in the
Mountain West, the family room Has begun to serve multiple purposes for our
lives. It’s a place for us to gather after dinner and watch TV, it’s a place to
entertain friends, and it’s a place to curl up with a book on a Saturday. As a
result, family rooms need to have enduring and comfortable
upholstered pieces and plenty of horizontal surfaces for people to
set something down.
The
family room is also a great place to introduce color. Be sure to select
something that you won’t tire of. It’s much easier to replace throw
pillows or a small drink table than an entire sofa in a Bright
tropical pattern (unless you’re decorating your Bahamian beach house, of
course). That being said, the sofa and chairs need not be neutrals like cream,
taupe, or beige, but can bring a sophisticated element with a navy mohair sofa
or by introducing one arm chair with an animal print. Proper lighting for how
you will be using the room will help set the mood. Introduce lighting at
different levels—table lamps, overhead lighting, and floor lamps or sconces.
Always use dimmers as you will want different lighting for a cocktail party
compared to a kid’s birthday party.
In
every seating place, there should be a place to set something in accomplish. In
some Cases, the coffee table will be too far away and you’ll want to add a
small drink table.This is another chance to add a fun pop of color or to
showcase a pretty accessory.
Dining
Room
Dining
rooms revolve around the table. Choosing the right table greatly depends on the
layout and size of your room as well as a few other key pieces, but there is
definitely a formula which will lead you in the right direction.
With
knowledge of the right formula and an idea of the look you are going for,
choosing a dining table for your dining room can be a simple process.
Measure
your space: You should even mark out the size of your desired table on the
floor with masking tape. This is The most important step so do not leave the
house until you have done this! The worst feeling in the world is to fall in
love within a desk, carry on the home, find that there is not enough
room to walk around it.
Allow
at least 30- 36 inches of space between the table and anything around it
whether it is a wall, a buffet, or a cabinet.This is how much room you need to
push your chair back to comfortably leave the table or walk behind the guests.

·How
many people usually dine at the table? Most of the people like 2 feet of dining
space, and if your family is small framed, you could get by with small less. If
You are living with small family regularly entertain large numbers
of guests, consider a table with extensions so that you don't feel that you are
miles away from each person.
Rectangular
tables are much more space efficient than round or oval tables. There is less
room wasted in the middle (diners only need 14" depth.) However,
surrounding tables are the most favorable to easy conversation with a larger
collection. Consider how room you include and make a decision accordingly.
Dining
tops are typically available in wood, veneer, acrylic, and glass (lesser fund
tops are of stone). Determine the level of durability that your lifestyle
requires -think about how often you keep amused, how often you actually be
seated at the table to like a nice serving of food.
