Modern glass extension open-plan living space with festive touches

A modern glass extension is made to feel cosy by adding a plank table. The table adds a warm, natural touch to the contemporary space. Grey fur throws over the bench add texture and an extra level of comfort. The Christmas decorations have been kept minimal and natural, focusing the eye on the gorgeous wreath hanging behind the table.
Airy open-plan kitchen diner with vaulted ceiling and doors out to garden

The open-plan kitchen-diner feels light and airy thanks to a high vaulted ceiling and French doors leading to the garden. To aid the light essence the colour scheme is bright with a white ceiling, pale pink walls and soft grey floor tiles. A statement turquoise blue pendant light and seascape wallart add a splash of vibrant colour.
Grey dining room with upholstered chairs and gold accents

Dark grey walls provide the perfect backdrop for simple, striking furniture, glam gold accents and lots of festive sparkle – ideal for grown-up entertaining. A modern clock is wall art and a timepiece in one.

Yellow dining room with woven chairs and lighting

The pink tones in natural woven rattan make then the perfect companions for chalky pink – plus they add a touch of the tropical, to complement the sunny yellow.

Black details – like the shelves and seating – are best for a bold look. Choose grey or white for a softer focal point.

Modern Scandi dining room with pale green and white walls

Mixing modern, design-led pieces like the contemporary table and pendant with classic farmhouse chairs creates a chic space with plenty of soul.

Natural wood furniture is essential for adding warmth to this fresh colour scheme.

Eclectic blue dining room with teak table and mismatched chairs

This scheme has a distinctive 196os look about it. This dining room features an eclectic combination of vintage pieces mixed in with some that are more modern or industrial. A unique and characterful feature wall has been created with a selection of art, prints and photos – it looks particularly effective against a deep blue backdrop. The teak dining table has been paired with mismatched chairs to complete the eclectic vibe.

Neutral dining room with eye-catching floral dining chairs

Introducing bold florals to your decorating scheme may feel a little daunting, but the key to showing them off to their best advantage is restraint. Here, a large floral print on the dining chairs makes a striking statement against a backdrop of carefully coordinated plains.

Spacious neutral dining area with pink artwork

White, wood and grey create a sophisticated palette in this dining room. Decorative touches, such as the pink artwork and orange breakfast bar stools, provide warm bursts of colour. There's a hint of orange in the painting so this creative pairing works really well.

Dining room extension with glass roof and garden view

If you're planning a kitchen-diner extension, consider a glazed roof. During the day, it will make you feel like you're sitting out in the garden – and at night, you'll be able to dine under the stars. An exposed brick wall creates a stylish feature that doesn't try to hide the original exterior.

Basement dining area with direct access to the garden

This basement area is a winner all round. A stunning glass staircase that is a great feature in its own right leads to the kitchen above, while the dining area also offers direct access to the garden. The room is large, so a bird-print wallpaper creates a natural separation of the living space. All in all the scheme perfectly takes advantage of the space below the main house.

Compact dining area in corner of living room

No room for a dining area in your kitchen? Then make use of a small corner in the space just outside. Folding doors are a clever touch, as they allow the kitchen to be closed off, but also create a free-flowing feel when open. If you don't want to knock through or can't afford structural changes, this is a great option.

Scandi dining room with a modern mix of furniture

Create a relaxed dining space with Scandinavian-inspired styling. Neutral walls, hits of grey and natural elements all play their role in achieving the look. The dining furniture here is mismatched in an intentionally well-planned way, with smart black chairs on one side of the wooden table and wire chairs on the other.
