Multifunctionality, enhanced traffic flow, and cost savings are just a few of the benefits of an open floor plan. Having a shared living/dining room space is one approach to adopting this modern design style. These ten stunning living and dining room combinations will inspire you to create a home that reflects your personal style.
Regardless of your space and style, you can include a dining room set that will blend with the living room to maintain functionality and style. These 10 layouts will help you make the most of your space.
Round dining table for small spaces
A round dining table is ideal for corners and tiny places. Because of its compact footprint, it takes up very little space. When not in use, the chairs may be pushed under the table for a cleaner look and more room to move around.
This option is ideal for a single person, young adult, or young couple who are just starting out in life and have few regular visitors. To provide cohesion, the brilliant blue chairs complement the white sofa’s post-modern furniture design and the blue hue on the area rug.
Multifunctional Dining Seats
Because of the neutral color palette, dining sets can easily be used as accent chairs or additional seating in the living room, saving money on additional furniture.
The dining room and living room are separated by a paint color difference in this design. The pendant lights draw even more attention to the dining area, while the grey-toned furnishings and round mirror strategically placed at the color separation point allow for a seamless transition between the two areas.
Double dining space with a breakfast nook
With a double dining area and a breakfast nook, create a versatile room for the family and friends that allows for both formal and informal dining. This home has a welcoming living room-dining room combination and a breakfast nook with a matching set of counter stools. It also features an outside dining space that may accommodate a larger group on special occasions. The set-up is ideal for medium-sized families who value private dining experiences while also preferring to keep things light.
Indoor-outdoor dining experience
A lack of space and money may prevent you from having two dining spaces, but it does provide you the option to build a versatile indoor-outdoor living space that can be used for both dining and entertaining. This modern open-plan living room and dining space has an outdoor kitchen and is open to the garden. With this design, there’s no need to be concerned on a weekend when all of the invited guests decide to show up with a plus one or plus two. The dining area may simply be expanded into the backyard by opening it up. It allows for seamless transitions from the living area to the kitchen, dining room, and backyard. On most days, the family has plenty of fresh air and adequate illumination.
Warm white theme for small spaces
Small spaces appear larger, brighter, and airier when painted white. Warm browns offer comfort, while black helps to balance out the white. In this intimate setting, the white circular dining table looks great with the white and black dining chairs. It complements the decorated wall behind it to create a unique focal point for the space. This layout demonstrates how the use of color, furniture arrangement, and decorating can transform the look and feel of a small space into a warm, welcoming, and fully functioning place.
Industrial dining bench to save more space
With an industrial dining bench on one side of a huge dining room table, you may save even more space. With a full-on dining room set, a back-to-back living room-dining room combination can feel overcrowded. The bench can be utilized to eliminate the bulkiness of dining chairs and can even accommodate more people than the chairs.
Traditional-style combo for larger spaces
For large, simple areas, create a cozy traditional style living room-dining room combo with brown leather seats and arched back dining seats. The furnishings and floors are made of brown timber material, which creates a warm environment. The fireplace serves as a focal point and adds warmth to the huge space, while the all-around windows bring light into the room, keeping it alive. This design is ideal for senior couples whose children have moved out.
Glam it up with a glass dining table
A glass dining table with a complementary chandelier above it will add elegance to your area. Through the clear glass, you can view the lovely dining seats. This will provide the sense of a larger area in small rooms.
Combined living, kitchen, and dining Space
The dining space is provided by a counter in the kitchen space in this layout. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks can all be served at the high tables and counter stools. If you don’t have enough room for dining chairs, add a few counter stools to the kitchen island and you’ve got yourself a cooking-dining-living place.
Accent dining furniture
The industrial look doesn’t have to be all dark greys, blacks, and browns. Make a ‘wow’ statement with your dining room furniture. The red color of the dining room seats is used to enhance the area in this design. Your living room is a place to relax, entertain, and as proven above, to eat! With so many different layouts to choose from, you’re sure to find the perfect one for your home. So, get started and create the perfect space for relaxing and dining.
