A contemporary dining room can be a sleek and elegant room in which to entertain your guests. Whether you are starting with a new home as a blank slate or updating a traditional dining room, you can create a sophisticated space by painting the walls and establishing a focal point, choosing the right flooring materials and textiles, and purchasing modern dining room furniture and light fixtures. The goal of modern design is to reduce visual clutter and maintain clean lines.

- 1
Update the flooring. Replace worn carpeting with polished hardwood, or opt for contemporary carpet squares or natural stone tile. If you decide on a hard flooring surface, protect it from scratches from sliding dining chairs by laying down a modern rug. Choose a solid-color rug, or try a striped or geometric pattern.
- 2
Create an accent wall. Paint one wall of your dining room an eye-catching shade such as orange, brick red or lime green. To introduce pattern and texture, hang wallpaper with a contemporary pattern. Further establish the wall as a focal point by hanging a large modern painting or a grouping of black and white photographs.
- 3
Purchase modern dining room furniture. Avoid tables and chairs with too many elaborate details; instead, look for pieces that feature clean lines. Glass-topped tables are popular, as are solid wood and stainless steel. All your dining chairs should match to avoid the shabby-chic effect. If you have the space, purchase a modern dining console in which to store your china and other items.
- 4
Install a contemporary light fixture above your dining table. Choose from brushed nickel or chrome finishes; if you prefer a softer look, choose a drum-shaped fabric shade. There are also many modern light fixtures made of glass, but avoid the dated crystal chandelier look.

New Modern Dining Room Home Design Photos in Atlanta
Many of us remember the dining room from our childhood as the separate, formal room that housed the most expensive pieces of furniture and was only used on a handful of special occasions and holidays. Running around the dining room chairs, and hiding under the dining room table. These formal rooms are still found in today’s homes but you can also find multi-purpose rooms, informal dining rooms and even outdoor dining rooms.

Perhaps there is nothing more therapeutic than a fine dining experience. Culinary sophistication and high standards make for a memorable time for anyone in a restaurant. But we design freaks seek more and often end up lusting over great interiors at places like these. Right now we are admiring some fascinating restaurant designs photographed by a Russian firm TABLE CHAIR Photos. Seems like a lot of time and money has gone into making these spaces perfect for food and conversations. Not only do they manage to lure a large number of food junkies, their interiors serve as good inspiration for home dining spaces too.

Moulded Plastic Chairs Rin
Moulded Plastic Chairs Rin There’s just no need for the functional to be boring – and the Rin Chair by Hiromichi Konno proves it. A smart moulded plastic chair from Fritz Hansen, the Rin chair would be at home in a range of situations around the house. It’s perfect for a home office or dining room… and would be a natural choice for a breakfast bar. The integrated cushion also makes it a comfortable choice. Rin chair makes a strong statement with a deliberate contrast between the predictable and the unpredictable. How? Well, the four-legged star shaped base is reassuringly stable and familiar. But the moulded seat shell features cut-outs that are less expected… each side has two absences, two voids. Rin chair is a paradox. Available in a range of solid, bright colours such as green or red, the Rin chair also looks sublime in black or white. Designed by Hiromichi Konno, from Fritz Hansen.

Industrial Style Furniture – Italian Ultra Modern by Opinion Ciatti

Move over Shabby Chic and make way for Industrial Elegance, the new look by Opinion Ciatti, an Italian company. This industrial style furniture maker puts an industrial edge on its ultra-modern furniture and accessory designs, which cross the line between fine furnishings to be admired, and functional and practical pieces. If you’re looking for something different, something to draw attention, provoke thought and inspire your own creativity, Opinion Ciatti delivers. The Uptown shelves are stacked haphazardly, but beautifully. The 5 Blocks cabinets let you stack and position them to suit your space. The mirrors are as ornamental as they are an essential tool for the modern man and woman, boasting whimsical designs. But the piece de resistance must be the TAB.U coffee table and seating collection – no avant-garde home is complete without it. Sometimes, all it takes is a few small touches – the cool CSC coat hooks resemble beautiful old nails, finished in a shimmering gold, silver and bronze paint. Check out the complete industrial style collections at Opinion Ciatti.
