The scene is just too heavy with all of that timber, and feels way too warm in colour. The example above from a recent episode of The Block illustrates my point perfectly. For example, an oak dining table with oak dining chairs, or a metal dining table with metal dining chairs. So we know you should avoid package deal dining suites, but you should also avoid a table and chairs in the exact same material.
Your Table and Chairs Should be Different Materials
too much of the same material in this Block dining room 2. I do love you, but it must be said that soft grey upholstered chairs here would look so much better. The one above is all too much of the one finish. If you’re on a budget, they are a great option, just ensure the materials of the table and chairs are different. To be fair, dining suites have come a long way, so I shouldn’t be too hard on them. If that’s the case, Here’s a list of our fave 60 dining chairs, broken up into different design styles. I lock in the table style, size and material, and then have a good think about the best chair based on functionality, comfort and of course – colour and material.Ĭhances are you already have a dining table and just need new chairs.

And as I often do, I’ve included lots of examples and some ideas you can shop toward the end of the post.
LIGHT TABLE DARK CHAIRS HOW TO
So as always, I’ve jumped right onto answering this common dining room conundrum.īy the end of this post my goal is that you truly understand how to match dining table with chairs correctly. This post comes in direct reply to a callout I did in the TLC Private Facebook Group, asking members what they needed help with the most.
I also know it troubles many of you when shopping. That’s what we’re going to delve further into here, because this is a skill few people master. That’s why I’ve decided to write up a post today that’ll show you how to avoid the matchy-matchy look, and instead embrace a more curated approach in your dining room. I’m of the belief that your dining table and chairs should be sisters, not twins.
