3 easy ways to refresh your dining space

“Wall panelling’s popularity continues to dominate social media with the hashtag #wallpanel reaching over a quarter of a million posts on Instagram and remains a favourite for moodboards on Pinterest. And wall slats are now trending with retailers offering them in a range of colours so you can coordinate them with your room colour. Or you can even paint them to match your own décor.”

If you’re thinking ‘new year, new dining room’, this may be the time to give your space an update.

Here are 3 trending ideas to refresh your space for the new year with the help of our resident Interior Style Advisor Rebecca Snowden at Furniture And Choice (FurnitureChoice.co.uk).

1. Zone your dining space with fashionable wall panels

“Wall panelling’s popularity continues to dominate social media with the hashtag #wallpanel reaching over a quarter of a million posts on Instagram and remains a favourite for moodboards on Pinterest. And wall slats are now trending with retailers offering them in a range of colours so you can coordinate them with your room colour. Or you can even paint them to match your own décor.”

“Slat walls are great for defining your dining area zone or even just to jazz up any wall at home. They are quick and easy to install - simply mark out the area, grab some adhesive and there you go! Go for light or oak wood to open up your space or if you dare - a dark wood or black for that extra dose of drama.”

2. Feel the blues with a bold colour palette

When you’ve got it, flaunt it - especially with a bold colour palette in your dining area. “We’re feeling that bright blue might be the colour for dining chairs as it’s bold but not too over the top. And together with a contemporary round pedestal table, you’ve got your stylish focal point. Since we’re going for a standout statement look, contrast is key here with coloured glassware and vases. If you’re really confident with colour, accessories in trending Barbie pink or Pantone’s Peach Fuzz will balance out the blues nicely.”

3. Streamline, streamline, streamline

“If you’ve already got a kitchen island why not connect your dining table to your kitchen island to maximise space? Picking the same colour for your chairs, stools and dining table is easy on the eye, creating a natural flow as kitchen and dining merge into one. However, a single colour can make the space look bland, so it’s important to mix up the look with interesting accessories. We’re thinking lush textures like velvet or plush fabric or stylish curves with hints of luxe like brass pendant lighting.”
