Five Star Dining Rooms in Westchester County - Chappaqua 10514
Are dining rooms still as popular as they have been in the past? The dining room has taken on other purposes too. Dining has become more casual and families eat on the go. So it is not unusual to see the dining room used as a play room, office, music room or sitting room. Read Joanna Cohlan's post and see what she sees the trends to be.
You put a lot of thought in creating the menu, selecting the wine and preparing the meal. As a Westchester County interior designer, it's my job to make sure that your dining room is just as tasteful as anything you plan to serve.
Open floor plans, expansive kitchens and busy schedules - these days the dining room is the stepchild of the home. But a renewed interest in cooking and entertaining has given some of my clients the urge to reclaim that space with practicality in mind.
The American family has definitely changed and so has the dining room. Entertaining is much less formal and much more creative-different materials and patterns are often mixed with unexpected finishes-breaking all the rules. In fact, that traditional
Norman Rockwell sit-down Thanksgiving has transformed into buffet service. Gone are the upholstered chairs and dining room hutches - replaced by backless benches and a long console or great armoire to store wine and all those extra glasses.
And forget the matching dining room sets! No such thing anymore. The key to a great dining room is to start with a fabulous table and then find the right seating to complement its material and spice up its attitude! A stunning fixture and playful wallpaper or artwork combined with an interesting vintage piece to serve from and viola, a fabulous is now yours.
