Many of today's floor plans integrate the kitchen, dining and living areas into one large, open space.
Depending on the needs of the homeowner, this layout can be designed for casual and relaxed family living, or transformed into a chic and glamorous room for entertaining, as illustrated below.
Our beloved DINING ROOM furniture dictated the classic design plan for the open living area in our home.
A silk shag rug helps delineate the dining space from the adjoining kitchen, while architectural columns add a subtle separation from the sitting room. Mahogany floors and iridescent paint visually link the spaces, creating a cohesive design scheme.
With the addition of tailored window treatments and glam accents, the area now imbues an eclectic elegance, suitable for day or evening entertaining.
The captivating chandelier and traditional pedestal table clearly define the DINING ROOM in this space. Two distinct and separate side bars offer additional seating for casual meals and afternoon cocktails.
The addition of an elegant buffet and traditional style rug implies that this area is designated as the DINING ROOM. The kitchen is tailored and sophisticated, creating a seamless transition between the two spaces.

This DINING ROOM shares the same neutral palette as the adjoining living area, but a subtle change in paint colour creates the illusion of separate rooms. The homeowner has cleverly positioned the sofa to act as a visual barrier, further delineating the space.
With thoughtful consideration given to furniture, flooring, lighting and paint choices, a traditional DINING ROOM can be created in a not-so-traditional, open floor plan.
And for those who secretly long for a separate room specifically allocated to formal dining, this alternative is both appealing and attainable.
What do you prefer - a design style that offers casual comfort, or classic elegance in a open concept living space?
