Where life happens

 
 

The dining room is considered the heart of the home, where family and friends gather to enjoy a meal together. But it’s about so much more than eating – it’s where stories of the day unfold, hopes and dreams are shared and laughter echoes. At the table, between meal times, homework is done, laundry is folded, travel plans are made – it’s where life is lived. For each moment, for any home, there is a seat for everyone at the table.

 
 
 
 

Compact living

Good things come in small packages; design a small dining room without compromising style.

 

Cosy, compact homes provide an intimate dining setting. Whether in an urban city flat or a quaint cottage in the countryside, a smaller table that comfortably seats two or four is an ideal place to dine, or double as a desk, mail catcher or whatever life calls for. Explore our bestsellers for limited spaces.

Comfortable living

When hosting a party, leave room for one more — whether it’s a surprise visitor or an old friend, every additional seat adds warmth and joy to the occasion.

 

Wide open spaces in the countryside provide the perfect setting to host a party. Homes with a generous dining room yearn to be filled with friends, and at the center a large dining table to accommodate a big gathering. The following selection includes extendable tables that can shift depending on the size of the fete.

Free-form living

Busy lives need not compromise on style with furniture that can be simultaneously durable and beautiful.

 

Fulfilling lives are evidenced by little traces here and there of the day to day – a pile of clothes to be folded, art in progress, a half-filled dog bowl, a calendar on the refrigerator covered in handwritten notes to stay on track. For a life well lived, these select tables and chairs are designed with durability in mind.

The home is a reflection of those who live inside it. Each piece pulled from different corners of their lives; maybe a well-thought-out purchase, a flea market steal or a family heirloom.
