Mediterranean Dining Room Perfect Design

Brick, stone and natural stone are perfect ways to make the ideal backdrop for your Mediterranean dining area with a lot of character. They provide a strong contrast that invites you to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The colours you choose will depend on your preferences and what you find more appealing. However, be aware that dark colours can often be unflattering if used in large areas, so consider lighter tones for smaller areas. Textures such as brick and stone can also lend themselves to wooden furniture as well as other less formal alternatives, so you're sure to find something that suits your needs.

Choose a Matching Wall Paint Style

Decoist Themes A traditional Mediterranean dining room will often have a distressed finish, giving it a worn effect and character. To give your dining area a more uniform appearance, choose an equally distressed style of wall paint or stencil paper and have the decoist redo the colours on your walls. Exposed bricks and rough stone walls also offer you an opportunity to vary between styles easily and you'll go from industrial to rustic, rural or farmhouse with no difficulty.

Table and Chairs Choose pieces that match the style of the surrounding furniture. If your room is decorated with a more basic palette of neutral tones, then choose a modernistic or minimalist look for its table and chairs. Opt for rich and inviting woods to go with your table linens, preferably mahogany or cherry. For a more charming and eclectic feel, incorporate a few Mediterranean touches such as a distressed oak finish on your cabinets. Alternatively, use Mediterranean-inspired metal leaf designs on your metal bar stools and tables and opt for simple tables with rounded ends - this gives them a more classic look.

Use Candles and Candle Fragrances

Candles and Fragrances Candles are essential elements of the Mediterranean dining room collection. The most popular decors include floral designs and patterns in bright colors, such as red, orange, yellow, green and blue. For a more sober and traditional touch, choose a few candles in rich scents - vanilla, cinnamon, lavender or almond. You can even find cushioned dining chairs with these same patterns and colors that will enhance their appearance.

Dining Table and Chairs With ample space and enough imagination, you can create a cozy nook that mirrors many of the other rooms in your home. Start with a round, rectangular or oval table and chair set. Add cushions in matching cushions. Install crystal doors that match your glass doors. You can also create a reading nook with open shelves and a flat wooden table and chair set.

Add Glass Window and Glass Window Wall Art

Glass Windows and Wall Art Glass windows are a perfect addition to a Mediterranean dining room. They add color and character to the dining space. A popular choice is a colorful mosaic that matches the brightly colored tiles on the dining room floors. The glass windows also provide the light needed by cooks when cooking.

Dining Chairs and Dining Tables When creating the look of a traditional Mediterranean style home, one element that often gets left out is the dining table. This is unfortunate because it is arguably the most important piece of furniture in your home. A good dining room looks warm and inviting, and its layout has the chance to really create an impression. If your dining table is too small, the room is too cramped; if its high ceiling is too low, you aren't getting the full benefit of the space. By choosing the right chair and table, you can make your dining room looks inviting and welcoming without overpowering it.

High Ceiling and Shutters Walls and floors can be a dull element of any room, but they can also be used to great effect to give your space a bold and intriguing appeal. A vertical window treatment and a light-colored or patterned Roman rug can bring the attention up to the ceiling. A richly colored shag will pull the eye away from the floor and add a splash of color to a dark room. Likewise, a low hanging lamp with a bright trim can bring a bright room theme to the dining room. If your home is currently painted in a neutral color or tones, consider using one of these touches to bring your space together in a fresh and interesting way.
