15 Amazing Farmhouse Dining Room Decor Ideas & Trends

Ready to learn about the best farmhouse dining room decor ideas?

The farmhouse decor style is one of the most beloved styles in the world of interior design. People across the country love to incorporate this family-friendly decorating style into their homes, especially those who reside in the countryside. Even if you don’t live on a rural piece of land, you can still appreciate this decorating style from the center of a big city or the suburbs. It can give your home that cozy, countryside feeling when you want to create an oasis at home.

Farmhouse decor is known as the decor style which gives you a rustic look inspired by old rural farmhouses deep in the countryside. It’s very welcoming, warm, and family-friendly. Joanna Gaines, a Waco, Texas realtor, and interior designer popularized this style many years ago on her HGTV show, Fixer Upper. Since then, many women across the country have been dying to get this fresh and charming look in their own homes.

Since the dining room is where we enjoy our meals, it’s important to really consider the purpose and practicality of a space like this. While you may be tempted to buy some really whimsical pieces of furniture or decorations, this isn’t the room to play around with frivolous things! Save your imaginative decorations for other less important casual rooms like the bedroom or the living room. Here, it should be all about serving food, and making sure everyone is comfortable while they eat.

You can decorate your dining room in the farmhouse way by using traditional furniture, industrial metallic tables or chairs, a fireplace mantle, comfy seating, vintage silverware, dining hutches and much more! These accessories, furniture, and earthy colors blend so well with each other to create the farmhouse vibe that is perfect for the communal spaces of our homes such as the dining room and living room.

Here are some ideas that will get your dining room looking like it’s on Joanna’s farm!

Rustic Dining Table

Every farmhouse dining room must have a rustic dining table centered in the room. You can choose a rectangular table or a round one, but wood is often the best choice. After all, a farmhouse home is incomplete without a wooden touch! Be it a rolling chair, a sofa, a wooden dining table, or just a wooden photo frame. Getting a rustic vibe to the home is necessary. You can also install a wooden floor in your dining room to align it with the country decor. This is definitely one of our very best farmhouse dining room decor ideas!

Country Dining Chairs

Next up, you’ll want to pick out some country style dining chairs to sit around your table. Some people like to have side chairs on two sides, and then two separate head of table chairs for either end of the table. I think that even if you go with one set of identical chairs, it’s so important to choose them for their design and comfort. Can you sit in these for a long time? Are they easy to move around? Do they have armrests if you prefer? These are all things to consider as you think about what is best for your space.

Mismatched Dining Chairs

A farmhouse dining room theme doesn’t restrict you to choosing from only the most traditional furniture and decorative accents. You can be creative here by mixing contemporary furniture and accessories with traditional ones. Add mismatched chairs to the dining table to increase the casual chicness of the space. You could mix modern chairs with traditional chairs to give the space an eclectic vibe.

Farmhouse Chandelier

Overhead lighting is so important in the dining room so people can see the food that is available and eat without making a mess! Most people like to go with a farmhouse style chandelier for their dining room which could be made of metal or wood. Sometimes industrial style lighting is used in farmhouse homes, as this decorative style is often associated with the country vibe.

Sliding Barn Doors

Sliding barn doors are a huge interior trend in farmhouse homes. The dining room is a great place to install a sliding barn door so you can seal off this part of the room from the rest of the house. You may want to have a way to seal off the dining room from the kitchen so people don’t see you cooking. You may want to separate the dining room from your living room while one group of people watches TV and the other finishes up eating. There are many reasons to separate different rooms in your house, and the sliding barn door is a great piece to accomplish this!

Earthy Tones

Farmhouse design always features an earthy color scheme. Muted colors like sage green, faded blue, dark brown, light beige, and creamy white ivory are very popular. This color theme makes you feel close to nature with its earthy tones. You should definitely find a way to incorporate these colors and shades into your dining room to make it calming.

Dining Hutch

Dining hutches are amazing pieces of storage that you should absolutely incorporate into your home if you have the space. Hutches can be used to store your expensive china, large serving platters, white pitchers, and much more. You can store silverware, plates, wine glasses and any type of serving materials you might need in your dining room. These pieces are quite bulky and expensive but they really do serve a great purpose. I would absolutely invest in one if I had the money and space in my home!

Cozy Rugs

Stepping on a cozy area rug is an important feature of most rooms in a farmhouse home. Keeping the space friendly and welcoming is always a good idea. Rugs help ensure that furniture is centered around a space. They also feel great to walk on with bare feet. Go with a gray, beige or neutral colored rug in your dining room to stay on trend. This is one of the best farmhouse dining room decor ideas we have!

Dining Bench

Another common farmhouse dining room trend is the dining bench. Instead of having chairs on one side of your dining table, consider buying a bench – cushioned or not – for extra seating. Now, keep in mind, most adults don’t want to sit on a bench for a long time so this isn’t a good choice if you live in a house of seniors and adults. On the other hand, if you have kids, a dining bench could be very useful for you. Kids love benches and you can fit quite a few of them on there!

Natural Materials

We love the natural materials often found in farmhouse decor, but don’t forget to offset woods, steels, and metals with textiles. Use full curtains, fluffy pillows on the seats, a soft and cozy rug, and overhead lighting makes the space feel much more inviting.

Table Centerpiece

The dining room centerpiece is a necessary decorative element to any dining room. Centerpieces are decorations that sit on the dining table when it is not in use. They keep the space from looking too empty when no one is there. When it comes to farmhouse centerpieces, you’ll want to pick one that involves flowers, nature, mason jars, plants, wood, or candles.

@thefarmhouselife

Bright and Airy

A dull and stuffy dining room should be avoided at all costs. Instead, you should make your farmhouse dining room bright and airy by enabling the flow of air and natural sunlight from the windows. No one wants to feel like they’re eating in a dark corner, so don’t put too many curtains in the dining room and let the sun freely flow inside. You also want to prevent the room from feeling too cluttered, so avoid over-decorating the space. Only put the essentials inside!

White Serving Platters and Pitchers

White serving platters and farmhouse pitchers are common elements in many farmhouse dining rooms. You can serve food on vintage platters and display flowers in lovely white pitchers. You can also display them in a hutch when not in use.

Farmhouse Wall Art

It’s important to consider your walls when decorating a farmhouse dining room. A mirror can help open up the space and make it feel larger than it is. A cow artwork, vintage wood sign, or a quote will show off your family’s personality. Farmhouse wall decor and art is a very personal choices and reflect on the style of your family members so choose wisely!

Shiplap Walls

Shiplap is all the rage when it comes to farmhouse wall decorating. Shiplap consists of horizontal wall panels that decorate the walls of a space. They are often painted white. You can use them as an accent wall, or cover all your walls with shiplap!

rusticpigdesigns

Lastly, you should also add a few planter pots to your farmhouse dining room to give a touch of nature to the space. Greenery helps us breathe better and creates a sense of tranquility in the dining room. It’s also very relaxing to look at!

Redecorating gives you the ability to transform your atmosphere, no matter where you're located. Case in point: You don't need to own a farm to enjoy the welcoming, charming décor of a country home. From weathered wood tables to inviting spindle-back chairs, nothing says home sweet home better than a farmhouse dining room.

Here's how to incorporate the lived-in charm and welcoming vibe of the farmhouse style into your dining room like a pro.

Living on the farm inevitably incorporates as many raw materials inside the house as it does outside. This dining room displays a perfect mix of wood, iron, and brass.

Dining room chairs in the modern farmhouse style typically incorporate a traditional design construction using sturdy materials like solid wood. Spindle-back chairs like the style featured in this space are a quintessential farmhouse addition. The black finish is paired with a classic iron dining room light fixture, while white shiplap is used on the walls for a touch of farmhouse perfection.

This design style is often centered around the table, which can incorporate modern or rustic accents. A great place to source your farmhouse dining room table is your local thrift store or flea market. Seek out pieces that boast natural weathering, or try your hand at a DIY project that mimics a similar look.

When redesigning your space, consider striking a balance between trendy elements, like shiplap, subway tile, or floating shelves with farmhouse influences like industrial lighting and reclaimed wood.

Finishing touches make all the difference in any space. While farmhouse style might be at the core of this design, textural elements elevate the look to new heights. The exposed wood beams, layered table settings, long curtains, upholstered seating, and a medley of fresh blooms make this dining room blend comfort and sophistication with ease.

Farmhouse décor can be approached in a variety of ways to create a totally unique look in every setting. While some may choose to do farmhouse in a rainbow of hues, this achromatic approach proves to be equally gorgeous. The black and white color palette accompanied by wooden accents proves to be chic, but it's still rustic at its core.

We're big fans of a formal dining room, but this kitchen setup is what farmhouse décor dreams are made of. The white marble countertop contrasts with the industrial-inspired stools is inviting—just how the farmhouse style was designed to be. And don't even get us started on the stunning color of those cabinets.

While we love the bright, airy approaches to farmhouse living, this dark and moody dining room is giving those light spaces a run for their money. The deep green color on the walls and ceilings pairs brilliantly with the rich oak dining set.

We love how a fresh coat of paint can transform a spindle-back chair into a fresh addition to your farmhouse-inspired space. This powder blue paint is an unexpected finishing touch that ties the entire dining room together.

In your search through flea markets and thrift stores, don't get too hung up on finding items that are part of a set. This dining room is proof that mismatched items can still look cohesive in a space together.

If you're lucky enough to have exposed beams in your dining room, give them the attention they deserve. Stain them in a dark shade or paint the ceiling white for a touch of contrast. If you don't currently have exposed beams, they're only a contractor call away.

If ever there was an appropriate time to play up the earth tones, it's in a farmhouse setting. This gorgeous dining room is loaded with earth tones in materials from wood to twine, and concrete—and the result is nothing short of a country escape.

Using mismatched chairs at the dining room table is a classic farmhouse move. We love how this space features two varieties of chairs that share the same blonde wood tone. It feels cohesive, but not too uniform. Pair your table and chairs with dining room wall décor that complements the modern farmhouse theme, like this simple white accent piece that allows the centerpiece to steal the show.

The dead giveaway for an inauthentic farmhouse style is likely hanging right above your table. Most homes have ceiling fans preinstalled in the dining room, but switching to a simple wrought iron fixture will make all the difference. In modern farmhouses, dining room lighting often incorporates pendant fixtures with rustic accents of varying textures—think metal or worn wood paired with warm light bulbs.

The beauty of the farmhouse style is its eclectic undertone, as mixing textures and shapes is encouraged. This dining room chandelier hanging above the table is usually designed with luxurious seashells, but this rope version feels equally glamorous—and it looks right at home in this farmhouse-inspired space.

We love the natural materials often found in farmhouse décor, but don't forget to offset woods, steels, and metals with textiles. The full curtains, pillows on the seats, circle-shaped rug, and overhead lighting make the space feel much more inviting.

Mile-long dining tables are gorgeous, but never underestimate what a four-person dining room set can do for your space. It creates the perfect vignette for intimate meals and doesn't have to sacrifice on style.

No farmhouse space is complete without greenery or fresh fruit on the table. It gives the illusion of that farm-to-table lifestyle, even if you live in a bustling city.

15 Cozy Farmhouse Design and Décor Ideas to Try at Home

Interior design of a dining room in a private house, apartment

A separate dining room in the interior design of a house seems to us an innovation. In fact, this is a well-forgotten old one. During the Soviet period, apartments appeared with small kitchens, in which there was no place for a full-fledged dining room. Until the 19th century, having a separate dining area was considered a sign of good taste.

Dining room layout options

Dining room - a room in the house intended for eating. Traditionally for today's society, it's just a table with chairs somewhere in the corner, in the kitchen. This part of the house is unfairly deprived of attention in design. After all, it also carries a certain functionality.

The interior of the dining room reflects the owner's lifestyle and habits. Therefore, according to the location in the house can be divided into:


Project by Darya Bikunova

Separate dining room

In the Middle Ages, a whole floor in the house was given over to the dining room to show the status of the owner. Now they do it for their convenience and allocate one room. Such an idea is suitable for interior design of a dining room in a private house or provided that the apartment has extra square meters. The advantage is that you can receive a large number of guests and effectively set the table. Minus: most likely, the dining room will be used only for special occasions or Sunday dinners.

A separate room is a great option if you often receive guests and you need a solemn atmosphere for a reception. And also if it is customary in your family to gather at a common table for every meal.


Project by Veronika Solovieva

Kitchen-dining room

The most common arrangement type. Traditionally, the kitchen simply allocates space for a dining group. This is a way out for owners of small-sized housing. Two rooms unite and zone the space.

Suitable for those who like to cook and gather the whole family around the table for everyday meals or who do not have the opportunity to separate the dining room. The kitchen-dining room is made in interiors for small families who need a small dining area.


Project by Olga Dorokhova

Kitchen-living room with dining area

The design combines the functions of cooking, eating and relaxing. In a private house or apartment, it is possible by demolishing a wall or combining it in one space.

In such a room you can hold sumptuous feasts, fun parties. You don’t need to sit at the table all the celebration, you can sit on a soft sofa and at the same time remain in the company. For large families, this is a great way to combine life and communication with children. Of the minuses: it will not be possible to retire in the living room and a mess in one place means a mess everywhere.


Project by Evgeny and Maria Latyshev

Organization of the dining room

At first it may seem that you can't think of anything interesting in the design of the dining room. Set up a table with chairs and you're done. A common mistake is not to pay attention to this zone. It has the same function as all the others. Let it not play a major role in the interior, but it is the final touch in a harmonious design. The wrong style of furniture or its placement can spoil the whole picture. Therefore, we will analyze the components of a successful project in an apartment and a private house.


Project by Inna Malova

Planning decision

The concept of the dining room and its appearance depend on this. Determine its location according to your needs. If this is a separate room, then you can choose any style. If combined with a kitchen or living room, make the same design.

Any combination of functions in one place implies zoning. For this technique, you can use both partitions and furniture. It is not necessary to completely demolish the wall during redevelopment. You can make an open opening, which will add air and space, but at the same time there will be separation.

In the kitchen-living room place the dining group between the cooking and rest areas. So much more practical. If a private house has a panoramic wall with access to the terrace, place a table in front of it. It will turn out very atmospheric and unusual.


Project by Maxim Lapshin and Maria Kosolapova

It's a good idea to make a dining room in the hall. This is especially true for apartments with a small kitchen.

With limited square meters, the dining area can be placed in a corner and linear version. Instead of a window sill, make a tabletop with bar stools. On one side of the table, put a bench or original bench. This will increase the number of places for guests. In larger rooms or a private house, you can install a table in the center of the room. Add a bar counter, an island or a U-shaped kitchen set, which is convenient for breakfast and snacks.


Project by Inessa Ternova

Finishes and colors

The dining room is considered a residential area, so there are no restrictions on the choice of materials for design. Except when it's a small kitchen and the wet area is very close. Then ceramic tiles and thick vinyl wallpapers on non-woven base are suitable.

The finish depends on the chosen style and color scheme. In a separate room, walls in one tone look spectacular, and accents can be made with decor and furniture. Most often, the table is in the middle, which already stands out.

Use different textures and colors for zoning united rooms. The dining area can be distinguished by wallpaper, decorative brick, plaster or clapboard. The table against the background of such a wall looks original.


Project by Artem Gorenechev

Lighting

Light is one of the methods of zoning. He is also able to increase the space, change colors, highlight interesting textures. The dining room needs proper lighting.

The light should be soft and slightly subdued. Enough lamps with a power of 50W.

The ideal spot for lighting fixtures is above the dining table. Designers advise hanging at a distance of 170 cm from the floor or 70 cm from the countertop. This arrangement will not interfere and shine directly into the eyes. If you are building a private house for yourself, then be sure to design natural lighting.


Project by Marina Trach

Dining room furniture

Of course, the main objects of the dining room are the dining table and chairs. The most popular table options are round and long rectangular. They are often found in private homes. For small spaces, choose oval and corner. There are also semicircular models with one straight edge that is attached to the wall.

An island or a peninsula, a bar counter, in continuation of the worktop or instead of a window sill, are suitable for the kitchen-dining room.

Made of materials, wood is a classic. Modern styles use glass and plastic. For luxurious designs, stone countertops are also available.

The transforming table is convenient for large companies. If the area allows, the dining group is best placed in the center. This will provide free access to the table from all sides. For a small kitchen, a good option is a window seat.


Project by Maxim Lapshin and Maria Kosolapova

Dining room chairs are not only functional furniture, but decor. If square meters allow, you can choose massive chairs, with armrests or semi-chairs. Banquettes and ottomans give uniqueness to design.

In a modest room, chairs should be light and compact. For a small kitchen, you can put a corner dining set. The built-in sofa on one side of the table looks original. It is not necessary to make a niche, you can simply put high racks or cabinets on the sides.

Many people have forgotten about such attributes as sideboard, console and cabinet. This furniture is designed to store festive dishes, textiles and cutlery. More often used for separate dining rooms in private homes.


Project by Vlad Sedov

Decor

Dining room interior design also has the right to be boring. A symphony of textures and facades, beautiful textiles and an unusual form of furniture can be found in this area.


Project by Alexey Ivanov

Dining table size tips

The right size dining table not only brings convenience, but also harmoniously fits into the interior. First of all, you need to determine for how many people the dining area. For a small family and frequent guests, a transforming table is perfect. Extra chairs can be placed around the room. For a large family, choose a table that is large enough for everyone to have enough space. But for combined rooms, you need to take into account the proportions. A huge table can spoil the interior and become a place to store unnecessary things.


Project by Vlad Sedov

Calculation formula

According to the laws of ergonomics and etiquette, there should be 60x35 cm for each person at the table. This allows you to put a dinner plate, cutlery on the sides and the necessary wine glasses. Approximately 20 cm must be left in the center of the table for dishes and decanters.

Table size by number of persons:

Number of persons Square table size cm Round table diameter, cm
4 90*90 110
6 150*90 130
8 200*110 150
10 260*110 170
12 320*110

Add 75 cm on all sides from the edge of the table to the wall or other furniture to the indicated measurement. This distance is necessary to make it comfortable to move the chair and get up.

Styles for the dining room


Anna Krivonozhkina's project

Classic

Classic style requires a chic crystal chandelier above the dining table. The table itself is made of wood.

General decoration in soft colours. In modern classics, stone and metal can also be used.

The main components of the classics are modesty and muffledness. Curtains are selected from multi-layered fabric, canvases are symmetrically draped. Paintings with landscapes, different-sized vases, a composition of delicate flowers on the table are welcome.


Project by Alexey Ivanov

Art Deco

Art Deco style turns the room into a grand dining room. The style is characterized by luxurious furniture and decoration. The interior is decorated in neutral colors: white, black, beige, gray, brown. Accents are placed in gold, silver, red and burgundy.

Expensive natural materials, wood, stone, natural leather prevail in the design. In furniture and decoration, use mirrors, varnished and glossy surfaces. The highlight will be crystal tableware, arranged in stained-glass windows with backlight.


Project by Evgeny and Maria Latyshev

Minimalism

A laconic interior that pays attention to functionality. Monochrome, strict furniture, free space, ascetic decor are the hallmarks of a minimalist interior.

It is better to make the walls plain and play with texture. Alternate matte with glossy, rough with smooth. It is permissible to combine different textures: concrete, porcelain stoneware, natural linen, wood, metal.


Project by Marina Trach

Country

Country is characterized by a lot of textiles. Chairs or a small bench, decorated with pillows, are placed at the table. A tablecloth or path is selected on the tabletop. The decor is complemented by curtains, carpets.

Country furniture made of dark and light wood. In the decoration of the walls, lining and wallpaper with a pattern are used. Choose from floral prints, stripes and checks. A fireplace is traditionally installed in a country house.


Project by Irina Novikova


Scandinavian style

Nordic style is characterized by simplicity, functionality, cold palette, restraint in decor. The smaller the room, the less furniture.

The Scandinavian interior does not tolerate heaps and disorder. There should not be glossy and shiny surfaces - only matte.

Use light pastel colors for decoration and decor. The walls are not necessarily only white, light gray, pale blue, olive are also suitable.

The base material must be light wood. For textiles and upholstery, choose linen, cotton, and other textured fabrics. For an accent, you can use bright colors, geometric shapes and patterns, a woolen carpet and fluffy pillows.


Project by Elena Tsareva

Loft

Industrial style fits perfectly into the studio space. Brick, concrete, cement, decorative plaster, stone are suitable for finishing. Such cold and brutal materials need to be diluted with bright, but at the same time complex colors: burgundy, indigo, olive, mustard. The contrast with delicate pink removes the masculine character in the interior. Luminaires can be made in metal or be without a ceiling. The wiring can not be hidden. A dining table and chairs made of wood with black iron legs will look good.


Designed by Tatyana Chernyaeva

Modern

For traditional modern interiors, it is necessary to use wood of the same shade in furniture and decoration. The concept is based on smooth lines and soft transitions.

The perfect dining table - round or oval. Modern modern allows you to choose a table made of glass and marble. Antique furniture and decor fit into the interior.

The design of chairs can echo the Middle Ages or be more modern. Models with high rounded backs, textile or leather upholstery and carved legs are characteristic. An alternative is chairs with a metal frame and a wooden seat.

Beautiful dining room design in a private home

From time immemorial, a wonderful tradition has developed on the territory of Russia to visit, to gather at a large table with family and friends. For these purposes, a private house necessarily had a dining room, which played a key role in the interior of the housing and became the central element of the building. Over time, the dining room was replaced by small kitchens, and after that, the name of the room, like the dining room, practically disappeared from our everyday life. Fortunately, in recent years, more and more families believe that the dining room is the right room that needs to be intelligently and attractively equipped. How to do it? About this in our material.

Do you need a separate dining room?

The dining room, which would serve as a separate room exclusively for dining, was an attribute of aristocratic mansions in the 15th-18th century. Even now, in a number of European countries, only a few square meters are allocated to the kitchen, but the dining room serves as a special territory that no one infringes on the rights of. The owners of a private house would rather sacrifice a living room or a bedroom than deny themselves the pleasure of dining at a large table, receiving guests and relatives in a separate and large room. Among our elite, this solution is also popular, because it is believed that a separate dining room is a sign of good taste.

At the same time, experts say that decoration is not enough to decorate an exquisite dining room, you need to know the secrets of good restaurateurs, which will allow you to properly organize the space. As practice shows, homeowners are not inspired by this idea, because a separate room requires a special approach, and the design of an independent dining room is more difficult to think over than a combined room. As a result, the dining room becomes part of the living room or kitchen, which saves precious square meters, leaving guests in full view of the housewife.

Layout and area of ​​the dining room in a private house

In general, the location of the dining room has no strict restrictions, but experts recommend arranging it closer to the living room, which is quite logical. A full wall can be replaced with a glass partition or the opening can be left open. It is important that the space has a special charm, conducive to pleasant conversations during dinner or lunch.

As for the size of the dining room, it all depends on the size of the dining table. If the homeowner decides to buy a folding model, then it is important to consider its maximum dimensions. For example, to comfortably accommodate 10-12 people, you need a table that will take up about 4 square meters. A couple more square meters will be taken away by chairs, in addition, you need to leave a free passage, which will be about 6 square meters. Furniture will complement the interior, which also occupies a certain space, as a result, the minimum area of ​​​​the dining room is from 15 square meters. If we talk about a modern, stylish and cozy dining room in a private house, then its area should be at least 30 square meters, which will emphasize the status and good financial position of the owner of the house.

Kitchen-dining room in a private house

As practice shows, most homeowners do not allocate a separate dining room, but combine it with the kitchen, dividing the space into two functional zones: working and dining. It is important that the space is harmoniously combined, complementing each other. For example, in a modern interior it is better to give preference to a glass table with chrome-plated metal legs and leather-trimmed chairs, but in a classic style, you should give preference to a massive table and wooden chairs with upholstery. In general, the design of the kitchen-dining room is mainly influenced by the shape of the table: square, rectangle, circle or oval.

The interior of the kitchen-dining room includes not only a dining group (table and chairs), but also other furniture elements:

Another popular solution is to combine a dining group and a recreation area into one room, the area of ​​which is at least 50 square meters. It is important that the interior of the room is harmonious and not cluttered; furniture plays the main role in creating the design, creating an atmosphere of comfort and grace. As for the style, it is better to focus on country or English style, which can emphasize the refined taste of the homeowner. When choosing massive furniture, you can decorate the room in the spirit of Empire or classicism.

As for the color palette, it is better to decorate the dining room in warm or pastel colors, thanks to which the interior will feel warm and cozy, soft and pleasant. The classic option for wall decoration is striped wallpaper or with the image of flowers. An alternative solution is Venetian plaster, which resonates with bright and sophisticated textiles (curtains, chair upholstery and tablecloths).

Lighting and decor

In the dining room of a private house, it is important that there is always as much light as possible, preferably diverse. The following light sources are easily combined here:

As for decorative elements and accessories, paintings, mirrors and showcases with luxurious dishes are indispensable elements of the dining room. Valuables and rare items, exquisite stained-glass windows and collectibles (stamps, coins, etc.) will also find a place here. Also here you can arrange special compositions located on open niches with unobtrusive lighting. In addition, you need to remember about textiles, because it creates comfort and a special atmosphere inside the dining room. Another obligatory element is a flower bouquet on the table, giving pleasant emotions and good mood.

The vastness of the country house, of course, allows you to implement design projects of any complexity here. As a rule, there are enough rooms in the cottage to allocate a separate room for each zone, however, there are times when the combination of several zones is fully justified. For example, you can often find options when one spacious room simultaneously serves as a living room, dining room and kitchen.

Dining room in the house: the best design ideas

Dining room in a private house

First, we need to figure out what should be considered a separate dining room in a private house. Photo , which you see above, shows, in principle, identical ideas for organizing space, and this is not just a table and chairs beautifully arranged around it. No, it can be considered a separate functional area when the decoration around, and visual zoning techniques, and decorative little things, everything will show that this is a separate place, being in which you will not feel like in a kitchen or living room.

The modern design of living rooms, which are located exactly in country cottages, is simply impossible to imagine without a large dining table and chairs, even if your family consists of only a couple of people. Even in everyday life, gathering at a beautifully set table, having dinner or talking about the past day, the family will receive invaluable benefits. When such communication takes place directly in the kitchen, between the sink and the refrigerator, it will be a completely different impression of both food and conversation.

It often happens that furniture is bought, and only then, the design of the dining room-kitchen is created around it. After all, the appearance itself can already dictate the style of the future room, and additional accessories, and the shade of the walls, and a coupon for home textiles. A massive, heavy table of a simple shape is ideal for national varieties of country interiors, creating a simple, rustic look of a country area. Also, a chalet would be an ideal accompanying style, you just need to complement everything with a suitable finish, for example, using skins or fur, homespun cloth, linen.

Table made of precious wood, not simple, but decorated with carvings or complex sculptural elements - a reference to classics and modernity. Such styles are practically not embodied in the interior design of the kitchen, but as for the front seat, any catalog will offer you hundreds of options. Of course, the thing is that at a time when such classical styles were born, it never occurred to anyone to dine in the kitchen or show it to guests, that is, there was no need for any particularly refined design. Therefore, for those who want to get perfectly seasoned in style kitchen, dining room, living room in the house should, first of all, pay attention to just the middle component, as an indispensable attribute and the most recognizable detail of such an interior.

For an oriental or colonial style, very cozy and colorful, exotic bamboo furniture, rattan wicker sets, ebony furniture are always ideal. All this will characterize you at the same time as an extravagant host, and a romantic who loves distant countries and travels. Around, fill the space with exotic souvenirs, natural materials, non-standard window opening techniques, and so on.

A new trend is the use of transparent glass tops, which are used not only in limited space, but also to embody most of the ideas of modern trends. The transparent texture of glass will become the basis for many combinations with other materials, because metal, wood of different quality, and plastic - all this will be significantly ennobled by an elegant glass table top. The only minus of just such furniture for kitchen-dining room in a private house, photo which you can see in our article, lies in the fact that its surface must be monitored many times more carefully than any other, because on a transparent material it is very easy to leave noticeable marks from dishes, food, even from the hands with which it was touched. The owners are also very concerned about the safety of such a table, because if there are small children in the house, then absolutely all scenarios need to be thought through. In this case, you need to order a tabletop made of tempered glass or processed in a similar manner (for example, with a film glued to the surface), then in case of damage there will be no sharp dangerous fragments that can cause injury to an adult or a child.

Dining room design in the house

Provence can be called a fashionable style for a small room, and you can harmoniously fit it into a cottage with a modern interior, and with a classic one. The only neighborhood that will look strange with Provence in the kit is laconic modern hi-tech, minimalism, Scandinavian style, which are based on a limited number of shades and accessories. For a Provencal room, you need to choose wall decoration in light (not white) colors, cover the table with a tablecloth made of natural fabric with a pattern or embroidery, use chairs from vintage collections (for example, with soft backs, which are finished using fabric with the same coupon as for curtains or tablecloths). In addition to all kinds of accessories, which in this case is difficult to overdo, there are a couple more nuances to create a stylish look for the space and for the recognition of Provence. First of all, these are flowers, and it is in the conditions of a suburban area that you not only can, but are obliged to fill this area with the aroma of fresh and freshly cut flowers. If there is such an opportunity, put flowerpots with luxurious indoor varieties of roses inside (we already know about planting roses, care, varieties and photos from the previous article), and use peonies, tulips, freesias as cut ones.

Moreover, if in the design of a small kitchen we do not often use flowers, since they themselves and caring for them can interfere with cooking, then here is the place for them. The second nuance that distinguishes Provence from others is light, a lot, a lot of light. So be sure to place the table as close to the window as the layout of the first floor allows, choose the curtains as transparent and light as possible (you can combine them by removing thick curtains during the day and leaving only light Roman blinds or blinds). Also, there should be a lot of light around - several lamps, sconces that will provide sufficient luminous flux for dining room design in a private house .

Kitchen-dining room in the house

For this, all zoning methods are used, which are only possible so that the kitchen-dining room in the house, photo of which you liked, was comfortable. In addition to partitions and screens, which are often used, there are many other techniques that perform the same function in a less straightforward way. After all, any screen or partition will visually significantly take up useful square meters, and you will simply get two separate tiny rooms. Therefore, useful and more effective techniques include: using different textures for walls, different shades and different quality of flooring, as well as changing the level of the floor or ceiling in order to isolate, highlight the space of the table and around it.

The principle of using different materials is also dictated by considerations of functionality. The design of the kitchen-dining room is characterized by the use of tiles on the walls and on the floor for the cooking area, while in the place for socializing and eating, a soft carpet can lie on the floor, the walls are covered with wallpaper or finished with exquisite Venetian plaster. In a word, these two rooms become so dissimilar that we begin to perceive them autonomously from each other.
