The focal point of this great room is the panoramic ocean and garden views. In keeping with the coastal theme, a navy and Mediterranean blue color palette was used to accentuate the views. Slip-covered sofas finish the space for easy maintenance. A large chandelier connects the living and dining space. Custom floor sconces brought in a unique take on ambient lighting.

Residence @ Lakshore

TA.LE Architects

Residence @ Lakeshore is a 3-bedroom apartment located besides Jurong Lake Garden, for a young family with 2 children. The design of the interior of this apartment is modern and minimalistic, with emphasis on natural material like stone and wood as the main material palette. LIVING-DINING-DRY KITCHEN The highlight of the apartment is the view to Jurong Lake Garden, which can be appreciated once you enter through the main door. The open plan that arranged the entrance foyer, dry-kitchen, dining and living room as a seamlessly continuous space allows the view of the Jurong Lake Garden from all these functional zones, making it the most important decision taken to the planning of the space. On one side of the space, a marble-clad wall (Black forest) is the feature - stretching continuously from the entrance foyer, through the dry-kitchen, dining space, living room to the large windows framing the Lake Garden at the end. The natural veins of the black forest marble arranged in a horizontal manner resembles the waves of water, complementing the feeling of living besides a lake. On the other side, a black tinted mirror wall enlarged the interior space through reflection and further extend the panoramic view of Lake Garden through the windows. GALLERY Extending beyond the mirror wall is the gallery leading into the private realms of the house – bedrooms and study room. Designed with wood finishing the walls and ceiling, the gallery unifies the entrances into the different rooms as one, transcending a mere distribution space – as a place for art collection display. ROOMS The gallery leads into a few rooms. The study room is designed as an extension of the gallery with only glass doors dividing the physical space. The master bedroom continues the use of wood in design expression, emphasising the natural material and minimalist style. The guest room is designed with an automatic Murphy Bed to suit the use of this room - a space that is multifunctional. The children room’s wall is painted like a beach front, pushing the imagination of the children’s mind with its’ association to the lake besides.

Larchwood Estate

Unique Home Solutions Inc.

We really enjoyed staging this beautiful $2.25 million dollar home in Ottawa. What made the job challenging was a very large open concept. All the furniture and accessories would be seen at the same time when you walk through the front door so the style and colour schemes within each area had to work.

Dining Room Design Ideas with Wood Walls

A dining room can be used for casual dining, integrated into an open plan and connected to the living and kitchen areas; or as a formal space reserved solely for entertaining. While it may not be used frequently, it is a great focal point in the home, and requires little furnishings. Here's what you need to consider before you start planning a new dining room...

How will you use your dining room?

First, consider how frequently you will use the space. If you plan on using your dining room on a daily basis, a casual dining set-up with sturdy, long-lasting furniture is best. As for where you position it – well, any unused space in the home can be converted into a casual dining space, whether it be at the end of a kitchen island, or at the bottom of the stairs. A formal dining room, on the other hand, is more suited to a dedicated space, which is more common in heritage homes where space originally wasn’t at a premium. Perhaps you want your dining room to multi-task and accommodate everyday meals, homework sessions and grown-up dinner parties… If that’s the case, furniture is key. Look for versatile dining tables in either Australian or New Zealand hardwood or weathered timber for a more rustic look. These won’t show up sticky fingerprints as much and can be dressed up for guests.

What size and shape should your dining table be?

Your dining table should be able to seat all family members with some room for additional guests – each person should have at least 60 centimetres of space at the table. The right size, however, also depends on how much room you have. A general rule of thumb is to leave no less than 1 metre from the dining table to the wall or any additional furniture, so people have enough room to comfortably move around the space. Rectangular dining tables are versatile and can work in a variety of settings, while oval dining tables are more traditional and can turn any meal into an occasion. If you have a tight space to work in, a round dining table is best, and also a great option if you want to encourage conversation. A square dining table can be a dramatic addition to a dining room, but only if you have the space. It allows everyone at the table to see each other, but the bigger the table, the harder it will be able to hold a conversation with someone at the other end.

What type of dining chairs should you choose?

Once you’ve decided on a dining table, look for dining chairs that share a common design element. If your dining table legs are curved, for example, try to match them with dining chairs that have a similar curve, either in the legs or back. Next, consider the dimensions of the chair. The height of your dining chairs should allow at least 30 centimetres between the top of the seat and the top of the table. And to keep your tush happy, avoid dining chairs narrower than 45 centimetres.

How can you decorate your dining room?

Dining rooms are relatively minimal spaces, but that makes them a great place to splash a little colour through artwork, especially if yours is a formal dining room. If your dining room is lacking warmth, consider painting the walls a deep shade of red or blue, or go contemporary with black or grey. A cosy rug will make the space feel more intimate, while a sideboard or cabinet of curiosities will further personalise the space. Often overlooked, dining room lighting can also drastically alter the mood of a room, creating drama, spurring romance or encouraging conversation. Opt for soft lighting in the dining area with dimmer switches, and choose oversized pendants in large, open spaces or to make the dining area more of a focal point. Finally, add some table settings, such as a lace tablecloth for a whimsy feel, or a more basic table runner for a chic look.
