Ask anyone who’s into house renovations about what’s the heart of a home and they’ll most likely answer that it’s the dining room. Especially in a Filipino household, the dining room is where not only good food but heartwarming conversations are shared.
Understanding the value of this, furniture shop Our Home recently hosted a “Dine in Style” session where it shared about the perfect dining table fit to a Filipino home – including the dos and don’ts when choosing a centerpiece, lighting tactics, and more.
According to the “Dine in Style” bible, among the first things to consider is picking the right table shape. For larger rooms that will often host groups, a rectangular table provides more seating. Meanwhile, a round table or an oval table are ideal for smaller places where intimate conversations are held. If your dining area is in a square room, better to put a square table for balance.
Centerpieces are often the main point of attraction on the dining table. This is why it should always be the tallest among all other elements on the table. Floral centerpieces shouldn’t have a heavy scent that could overpower the aroma of the food.
Lastly, when it comes to lighting, dining in style means enjoying delectable food under warm ambient lighting. This enhances the dining experience by creating a cozy atmosphere.
