Industrial modern dining rooms
The Industrial Chic style is a segment of decoration that every day attracts more followers around the world, who find in it a model that adapts to every home, but that also fits perfectly for internal business environments. little. Let’s look at some dining room ideas in style.
A sculptural lamp looks great against the dark smoky walls and gives this room an industrial feel. Smooth metal chairs paired with an oak table add a softer touch to the space.
It is very common that the main piece of furniture in the dining room, which is the table, is the one that marks the line the most. This means in other words, that the ideal would be to find an old, industrial model, in a second-hand market, or in auctions of factories that close, since that is where you can find the best tables in hard wood and wrought iron. , or the models most associated with industrial kitchen tables, in stainless steel.
The trend in wood and wrought iron is transferred to chairs, benches, stools, cabinets and side shelves, including clocks and lamps. Clocks with Roman numerals are the ideal complement to the wall and nowadays they are very easy to get, since they are very fashionable.
Of course, the industrial style should not necessarily be associated with the old, since it can be modern industrial, where stainless steel tables are more classic, smooth wood floors and chairs made of plastic or other materials, with strange shapes.
Modern nordic dining rooms
The white color is a color that reigns in the Nordic style, but this does not mean that it cannot be combined with others to generate a contrast. Another original way of contrasting is wood. This style is without a doubt one of our favourites. When we talk about the Nordic style, we are talking about a style full of elegance and also functional.
Another thing you should keep in mind when decorating is light. As you can see in the photos, the light must be natural, so it is advisable to put semi-transparent curtains.
If your house is not well lit by natural light, then you can put artificial lighting but make sure it is enough to reach all points of the house.
The contrast should be put on the rugs, curtains and cushions. All furniture must have its function since in this style only the furniture that is needed should be used.
