Form a Mood with Lights
It is crucial to feature a layered lighting design in the dining room or area to create moods of your choice. Feature ambient lights with recessed lights for general illumination. Add pendant lights or a chandelier for task light purposes. Add wall sconces or a table lamp for accent lighting requirements. Select the light fixtures with dimmer options to feature the required ambience. Add decorative candles too for that added gleam and glamour!
Add a Beautiful Rug
Whether you have a separate dining room or an open layout with a living room and dining area or a kitchen and dining space arrangement; it is necessary to define the space. An area rug makes a thoughtful addition to anchor the dining room or corner. Select a rug that is large enough to place the dining furniture over or at least the dining table and front legs of the dining chairs. Explore different colours, patterns, and textures; to add a sense of warmth and comfort to the dining room!
Impress with Wall Art
Accentuate the dining room wall with beautiful wall art. Select either one large-size artwork or a set of two or four art options to elevate the dining room. You can also create a gallery wall by combining different art types and making it work like conversation-starting decor pieces. Keep the subject, colour, and feel of the artwork matching the existing or chosen interior style of the dining space. For example, add lovely folk art in a traditional Indian-inspired dining room!
Define it with Accessories
To showcase the elegance in the dining room, it is necessary to decorate it with the right accessories. Place a table runner to protect the dining table surface from unavoidable spills and stains. Add thoughtfully curated serveware, flower vases, and attractive candle holders on the dining table. Ensure to add objects and accessories depending on the dining table size and size. Aim for a clutter-free and inspirational dining room set-up!
