Create a Cohesive and Harmonious Space by Choosing the Right Flooring!
A combined living room and dining area is a solution that works in both small spaces and larger ones. Properly selected elements of décor will help create a shared space where you can easily host a large gathering or spend time with family doing various activities. When planning a space where large items such as a sofa, dining table with chairs, and a cabinet for the TV must fit, it's important not to create visual chaos by overloading with too many items, colors, and textures. Opt for color consistency on the walls and floors. A great option would be vinyl wood-look flooring like Aquatus SPC, which not only has exceptional durability but is also 100% waterproof. This means you can enjoy meals together without worrying about spilled drinks or a bowl of water knocked over by the dog. These panels, from the Aquatus SPC collection, also feature remarkable design. Their structure faithfully mimics natural wood, bringing a sense of naturalness and harmony to the interior. The possibility of installing them with underfloor heating saves space by eliminating traditional radiators, which is a lifesaver in a small living room.
How to Arrange a Small Living Room with a Dining Area?
Modern apartments, especially those in large concrete block buildings, often feature small living rooms with an area of around 20m². Is it possible to fit a dining table and chairs into such a small room? Of course, it is, although it may seem challenging at first. The current solutions for interior design give us many options. We don’t have to give up a living room with a dining area; it’s simply a matter of planning the space down to the last centimeter. Small-sized furniture that can be functionally folded is a great help. Additionally, choose minimalist designs without embellishments or heavy textures. Instead of a rectangular table, go for a round one, and choose small but comfortable sofas instead of a large corner sofa. Opt for furniture in light and natural colors. If you want to add a contrasting element in a bold color, choose a lively-colored sofa or accessories. Try to plan the space with a circular flow. Don’t separate the two zones by placing the sofa with its back facing the dining area. Such a move will disrupt the flow of the space in a small room and break the harmony between the two areas that are meant to create a cohesive whole.
Large Living Room with a Dining Area – Create Your Dream Interior!
When it comes to a large living room with a dining area, the only limit to your design is your imagination. However, remember that a large area doesn’t give us permission to clutter it with every possible piece of furniture. Keep the quantity in check, and when it comes to colors and textures... feel free to experiment. In a large interior, you can opt for symbolic zone differentiation by using a different color for the walls or floor, or by choosing decorative partitions or hanging aesthetic fabrics.
Designing a living room with a dining area turns out to be an incredibly simple task, and the final result is worth every minute spent planning and selecting the elements. Being able to spend time together in an aesthetically pleasing and functional interior is truly joyful and priceless.
