Modern Dining Rooms

Drama reigns in this modern dining room thanks to Italian chairs, a wide stripe etched on the glass table, and, of course, the striking red-and-white checked rug.

For this client's dining area, the room itself was left simple and clean, so the visual focus became the dynamic furniture pieces selected, starting with the Italian wenge wood table that is surrounded by white leather dining chairs. An original Gehry accent chair was placed in the corner to act as an art piece. A full-length drape warms up the feel of this simple dining room.

The custom frosted glass partition was designed to allow convenient access to the kitchen for serving but allows the space to be closed off for dining too.

Modular Arts wall panels and a built-in planter are a dynamic back drop for this chic dining room. Fluorescent lights, bamboo floor and custom table and chairs made of FSC wood and stained with AFM Safecoat turn this green dining room into a show stopper.

This bachelor pad's dining room is the ultimate in lounging with a sofa as seating. An oversized mirror allows the occupants to watch as they party the night away. Plus, the custom dining table is made of eco-friendly wood (FSC) and stain (AFM Safecoat).

This room is set apart by its bold artwork and colorfully vibrant floral. These bright colors are able to pop with the backdrop of cool white chairs and ebony furnishings and flooring. The lighting is also light and fresh with oversized shades and a mod, urban look.Design Tip: The Wow factor in this room is not just from the artwork and flowers, but also the important contrast in dark-white colors on the chairs, walls and baseboards. ©Photo by Stephen Allen Photography.
