A separate dining room adds glamour, elegance, and excitement to a shared meal. Celebratory, sociable space, apart from the confusion of the kitchen, makes every dinner more meaningful.
1. A round dining table is less formal and aides in full conversation, with everyone participating together.
2. For comfortable dining, the seat height feels best when it is nine inches from the table top.
3. White and light colored tablecloths reflect light upwards providing more illumination for large parties.
4. Dark wood absorbs the light for intimate dining, keeping the room moody and romantic.
5. Gold lamae fabric sparkles under lace tablecloths.
6. Stemware gives a buoyant, bubbly, and upbeat feeling.
7. White china, green napkins, heavy cut glass, even for young families (liquids taste better in glasses than in plastic), and candlelight make an ordinary meal taste scrumptious.
