Toons' Top Picks For a Modern Dining Room

Posted on - 31st May 2021

Today’s focus in the Toons’ Top Picks series is for a modern dining room. A dining room can be a hub of activity for families across the country or a household hosting guests. Therefore, it deserves the same kind of love as the rest of your home. With people often opting for a contemporary feel in their homes, modern dining room furniture is a popular choice for many. In order to help you create a sleek, sharp modern looking dining room, we’ve collated some of our favourite dining room selections.

Portland Breakfast Bar

With more and more kitchens being open plan, it’s given rise to the new kitchen/diner aesthetic. A key feature in these designs is the breakfast bar. Usually placed towards the end of an island, worktop or the room in general, this seating area provides the perfect station for a quick meal. These can also come in handy, giving guests the opportunity to speak to the designated chef and parents the opportunity to watch over their children as they cook for them. Our Portland Breakfast Bar brings a contemporary look to your dining room with oak veneered tops, a man made board carcase and coloured paint finish.

Indy Circular Dining Table

The focal point of any dining room is the dining room table. For a contemporary feel, you’re looking for a piece of furniture with sleek edges and a smooth finish. Our Indy Circular Dining Table is perfect for just that. Combining saw cut oak marquetry tops with a peppercorn finished wire brushed oak veneered frame and powder coated black metal base, you’ll fall in love with this piece. Thanks to the hand-crafted wire-brushed and distressed tops, you can count on this table to outlast any interior design changes too, with it fitting in seamlessly in a rustic setting too.

Indy Canti Chair - Dark Grey (Pair)

Getting the right chairs can be a make or break moment when it comes to redesigning your interior. For example, if you select the wrong chairs, your table can soon stick out like a sore thumb. Getting the right chairs can not only provide your guests with a good level of comfort, but also tie together the design of your dining room. Not only are the unconventional bases of these chairs bold and stylish, but they are also great for families with small children as they cannot lean back on their chairs.

Indy Open Display Unit

Whilst many people will choose to use a display case like this for accents such as ornaments and picture frames, there is another great way to repurpose it. What is it we hear you ask? You may be interested in using it to display any collections of alcohol. That way, you have a full bar ready for the after dinner drinks to commence.
