This hefty plank tabletop begs for a sleek edge, making these chrome and leather benches a perfect addition around the dinner table. This beach-inspired interior in Barcelona by local designer Susanna Cots fills this small but sweet dining area with a wonderful weather-beaten table, surrounded by crisp white chairs that remind us of smooth seashells, gentle in color and organic in shape. The worn wood table is paired with chairs of different shapes, colors and materials, each standing out from the rest in its unique way. The organic, uneven edges of this country table and bare wood finish enhances the modernity of these sleek dining chairs that border on lounge and bar seating. The home designed by Kremer Architects features a contemporary dining area and breakfast nook, where the dining table stands out in all its rustic glory against an ultra contemporary backdrop of white walls, floors, finishes and again making an appearance, the glossy white Panton chairs. And here’s the driftwood dining table in a rustic room setting, still awash in white but embracing all the natural imperfections of wood that make it a favorite in this interior design.
The variation of this eclectic dining room design comes in an unexpected place – the bases of the seats, which include pedestal, four-legged, and bench styles. The green and white country kitchen table invites you to sit over homemade breakfasts and family-style Sunday suppers.
