what dining table for a grey living room

2 years ago

Hi we moved into a very dark grey carpeted living room. We are planning to change most of our furniture…

We currently have this walnut table which is bit small and colour looks strange.

Found this light oak elegant wood table as second hand, and a greyish Swoon table. Would this type of tables go better with the space?

I want to make it warm and elegant, but so hard!

The living room has chandeliers and ceiling engravings and fireplace so it is not too modern.

If any ideas for dining tables, help! Thank you!

I think you need a larger table. Oak could work or painted wood in white/cream

What other finishes / styles do you have in the room that the table needs to work with?

Thank you very much for that! Yes I totally agree, I've added a picture of some drawings I've done today.... I like the idea of using the wall for shelves and the TV on the wall etc. However, we are now struggling with colours to paint the wall behind the dining table!

Agree with the suggestions of moving the console to this wall. Try it first before thinking about filling the area up, it may just be that you are unused to the space that has been opened up. If you don't need more seating, (your new couch looks very comfortable with ample seating) , leaving the space gives your room room to breathe!

Tbh I’d have just one of those chairs and bring it down to the rhs of the sofa, set into the room slightly, two other smaller dining chairs to replace the first choice ones, your getting the table anyway so you need chairs, I think these are to big for dining chairs and certainly for a small table, other thing is, when you sitting in them what are your going to be doing? To far away to easily socialise with anyone on the far side of the sofa, difficult angle to see the tv, just my thoughts :-)

I’m not sure that either of those styles would work. I think something g like a light oak top with painted legs in a more classic style might suit, though it’s hard to tell without seeing the rest of the room.

The rest of the furniture will be (1) light beige / oatmeal Camerich lazytime sofa, (2) black square wooden coffee table (3) and a black modern desk

So all the furniture are rather contemporary but the room feels elegant/classic and that walnut table is too small and mid century

Will share a pic once all the boxes are out!
