Furnishing your dining room: from table to mood lighting
A good dining room starts with the right table. Large enough for the whole family, yet fitting into the space. An extendable table is ideal if you regularly host extra guests. Combine it with the right dining chairs and you immediately have a complete and inviting dining room.
Dining chairs: comfort and style
Dining chairs are more than just a place to sit. They largely determine the look and feel of the room. Choose upholstery in bouclé, velvet, or artificial leather depending on your style and ease of use. Swivel chairs offer extra comfort, while chairs with armrests provide a luxurious look.

Storage in the dining room
A sideboard or display cabinet is a smart addition to the dining room. It stores cutlery, crockery, and table linen and gives the room a finished look. Combine it with a mirror or wall decoration above for a cohesive aesthetic. View our range of cabinets for the dining room and find the model that suits your interior.
Lighting above the dining table
The right lighting completes the dining room. A pendant lamp above the dining table is the focal point of the room. Choose a lamp whose size matches your table: for a round table, a single round pendant lamp works well; above a rectangular table, a bar pendant lamp or multiple pendant lamps in a row fit perfectly.

Rug and decoration in the dining room
A rug under the dining table adds warmth and defines the dining area. Choose a rug that is large enough so that the chairs remain on the rug when pulled in. Combine with a vase on the table or some wall decoration for a cozy, personal atmosphere.
Combine your dining room with other spaces
The dining room often adjoins the living room or kitchen. Looking for inspiration for a consistent style?
Allow at least 60 cm of table length per person. So, for 4 people, you need a table of at least 120 cm, and for 6 people, at least 180 cm. Also, consider walking space around the table: at least 80 cm between the table and the wall or furniture.
What is the advantage of an extendable table?
An extendable table is perfect if you don't always have the same number of guests. On a regular day, you use the smaller size; for a dinner party, you extend the table. This combines flexibility with space-saving.
How do I choose the right pendant lamp above my dining table?
Ideally, the bottom of the lamp should hang 70 to 80 cm above the tabletop. For a ceiling higher than 3 meters, you can go slightly higher. The lamp should be no wider than the table. For a larger table, you can choose two or three smaller pendant lamps in a row.
Can dining chairs also be used in the living room?
Yes, certainly. Dining chairs are increasingly being used as extra seating in the living room, at a desk, or as an accent chair. In that case, choose a model with softer upholstery for extra seating comfort.
