Mix, Not the Match

Lively conversations and happy gatherings are encouraged in this dining room, with its mix-not-match approach to furnishings. Warm colors and a mix of patterns make this gathering space intimate and welcoming. The focal point of this room is the formal dining table, catching the eye with its elegant and unusual curved detail at each end of the tabletop. This table continues to garner attention with its beautifully carved legs and substantial base. Upholstered chairs, neatly skirted in a traditional striped fabric, continue the air of formality.

Custom drapes in a stunning shade of blue are hung at the windows, instantly adding warmth to this already charming space. The thoughtfully selected drapery fabric brings out the same shade of blue in the rug, calling attention to a less dominant hue that might otherwise be overlooked. The patterns of the drapes and the antique rug play well together, adding a layer of interest and color to the space. The tabletop is casually adorned with a pair of oversized terra-cotta pineapples, a fun reminder not to take the formal dining table too seriously.

This lovely dining room, elegant but not too formal, is an interesting and inviting space. In the spirit of the New Americana, it has been thoughtfully furnished with comfort and beauty in mind, making it an honest space that is warm, welcoming, and oh-so fun.
