The days of families gathering for a
group meal around a dining table seem
to be disappearing. More commonly,
individual familymembers eat at different
times, or in front of the television – even
in the office or bedroom. It’s a shift
that will have an increasing impact on
society, according to a BBC report.
W
e don’t want this, do we? So let’s make our dining areas as cool,
appealing and comfortable as possible.
When it comes to choosing a table, make sure that it’s the
perfect height for the chairs – even in matching sets this is something that’s
often not quite right. Buying ad hoc pieces from different outlets can make
it even more difficult to achieve this balance.
Many new homes and apartments have smaller dining rooms; if that’s
the case, be sure to choose something that’s not too “heavy”. Anything that
can have multiple uses or can be shifted easily is good too.
Here are just a few ideas for dining in style.
