A Mid-Century Dining Room with a Rustic Twist
Do you know that special feeling when you accomplish something amazing or when you finish working on a big project? Oh, yeah, THAT special feeling. That’s how I feel when I visit my parents for our daily breakfast gathering. Fresh paint, a ridiculous-good-looking-table, chairs, artwork, a beautiful rug, and coffee. Everything working together like one big welcoming community, whose sole purpose is to make ME happy! Oh, sure I will take a sit and sip that coffee with lots of milk and some sugar, please…
This dining room is the first room you see when you walk into my parents’ house. Before the renovation took place, you had to peek through a tiny door to actually see this room. During the renovation, we almost considered not taking down a few walls because of laziness or a budgetary issue, I can’t remember which one. But I am so glad we did it! Knocking down two walls helped open up this space and create a more welcoming vibe. We decorated the room around that beautiful rug. Bringing that beast from Brazil while traveling with three kids was well worth it! We opted for a round table because you know, somehow you can always fit one more sit if you need it. The glass against the wooden base is perfection. A strange mix between heavy and light, dark and transparent that works so well for this room. After we had the rug and table, we decided to do a speed dating event and brought in a couple of chairs to meet the new table. When the white chair was placed next to the table, it was love at first sight. And then it happened, without a lot of planning, we had designed a mid-century dining room with a rustic twist. Or maybe it is the other way around.
The bar stools are modern-looking and simple. They will make a statement if you pay attention to them, but they don’t like to steal the show. For the artwork, my biggest fans let me choose two pieces from our new home collection. The Glass Pieces design and the Watercolor design have very similar color palettes that we thought would work well together. The round and simple chandelier plus a touch of greenery finish of this inviting dining room. We can’t figure out if we need blinds or curtains. For now, we are thinking NO. If it changes, I might just have to post an update here. What do you think?
