Wall design in the dining room

Bare and colorless walls can quickly appear uncomfortable and cool. Of course, the wall design is also a question of taste! Yellow puts you in a good mood and makes us think positively and orange brings freshness and joie de vivre into the room. But not everyone can make friends with such an intense color.

Vintage or country house ambience in the dining room

Ideas for vintage in the dining room

Vintage has been a trend in interior design for years. Vintage furniture is a piece of furniture made between 1920 and 1980. These older pieces, which used to be considered old-fashioned, are now being recognized and valued again, not least because of their craftsmanship and the often high-quality materials. Not all the furniture comes from an earlier decade, but is new and trimmed to vintage. For example, you can create a used look with shabby chic yourself.

So the term vintage is broad, what does it mean to you? A Table in a shabby chic look, a tiled table from the 1980s or a sideboard from the 1950s? Instead of designing the entire dining room or the dining area in the kitchen in a vintage style, you can set a highlight with a special piece. A kitchen buffet in good condition, perhaps in a new colour, is a real eye-catcher! But also in the smaller e.g. B. with cocktail chairs or a lace tablecloth you create a beautiful connection between old and new style.

Country style ideas

Natural materials such as wood, natural stone, ceramics and clay are decisive for the country house style. Depending on the direction, the style is different, filigree carvings are not uncommon in the French look, while the Scandinavian look is minimalistic, the American, on the other hand, relies more on heavy and dark pieces of furniture. The country style also includes linen and cotton as well rattan and glass. Floral designs are also indispensable! How do I create my country-style dining room decoration?

Here are a few suggestions:

lighting

Also not to be neglected is the lighting in the dining room (just like in any other room). A ceiling light provides brightness in the whole room, one for the dining table hanging light a nice complementary option. This light should be bright enough, but not dazzling (i.e. hang about 60 cm above the tabletop)! If there is no connection directly above the dining table, a stylish arc lamp will do.
