The Result
The Opportunity
Bare bones,
begging for warmth.
The dining nook had good bones — a solid wood table, tall bay windows, an open sightline to the kitchen — but nothing grounding it. We added a patterned rug to define the space, soft sheer curtains for privacy without blocking the light, and a few simple touches on the table itself.
