Dining rooms to inspire you

A guest post by Arcadian Home

Hello, everyone! I’m so excited to be here with you today at Elizabeth Swartz Interiors with a guest post from Arcadian Home blog. It’s a fabulous place to find interior design inspiration including great decorating ideas for everything from sparkling chandeliers to colorful table decor.

With hectic lives and more commitments than we can meet, it sometimes feels like we don’t gather around the dinner table as often as we should. If these gorgeous dining rooms are any indication, that just might be changing. Perhaps it is time to dine in style more often. Who could resist serving family meals or dinner for friends in these lovely rooms? Please enjoy!

Dining in style at the beach on Martha’s Vineyard, that’s what this dining space offers. Pale wood and deep sandy upholstery look chic near the stone fireplace and built-in cabinets accented with blue glass.

Shall we dine in style indoors or out? That is the question posed by this lovely dining room and the spacious outdoor dining area beyond wide French doors.

This handsome traditional dining room in the Green Mountains of Vermont is gorgeous in lovely deep blue hues. From the stunning Oriental rug on the floor to indigo walls and the elegant but simple crystal chandelier hanging above the inlaid mahogany table, this room is made for entertaining.

A Mid-Century space to fall in love with, this dining room has it all, slightly masculine good looks, brick fireplace and wall, striking vintage reproduction lighting and beautifully set table. Dinner anyone?

With an amazing color palette and chic seating, this extraordinary dining room is at once beautiful and inviting, with a stylish comfortable vibe. A pair of modern pendant lights with silk shades complements the glam mirrored buffet and mirror above.

Each and every element of this chic dining space is so perfect on its own, but together they create a most visually appealing room. The fabrics are gorgeous and the unexpected green tile walls provide an intriguing backdrop for the space.

With French doors framed by soft drapery panels, this dining space is sparsely furnished, but beautiful and certainly fit for dining in style. Often seen as a foyer light, the massive lantern pendant is unexpected hanging above such a delicate dining table, but it works beautifully.

Eating at the breakfast bar is not usually considered stylish dining, but perhaps we can make an exception here in this beautiful kitchen designed by Elizabeth Swartz Interiors. Curved track lighting, custom glass-front lighted cabinets and under cabinet lights draw the eye to sculpture and other art that create a dramatic backdrop for dining in style in this contemporary kitchen.
