The alternative is to find a beautiful faux tree to place there. If this spot gets enough natural light from your bay of windows, you'd be able to have a pretty large real plant there. You could try putting a tall plant in an impressive planter there. trays will allow you have a more definitive D.R. Removing the small red cabinet, the m'wave & the t.v. I think that you might try a couple of things with the space where your microwave is now. Even though it's a attractive one, you'd never put a visible trash can in a dining ROOM. See if you can find another location for your trash can. Now, if this eating area is functioning as your de facto dining room, you need to do a couple of things. I think, if it's possible, that lowering the light fixtures would also be good. If you end up with dark paint on the wall & dark cabinets, a small group of simple white china at at the location farthest from the table might really pop up there. This might be a little tricky though, with the look that you're going for. NOT in the top-center of cabinetry, but all at one end. One idea is to very tightly group objects with something in common. I also believe you should remove the decor above the cabinets even the nicest decorative objects almost always, when spaced intermittently, look kind of snaggle-toothed. Like orangecamera said above, I think your dining set is just beautiful like it is! As for window treatments, I like the elegant white ones shown in the mock-up you ran near the beginning of your post. Don't know if you have kids, but even an adult can spill something or knock something over sometimes. I know I'd never put a rug under the table- it's impossible to keep clean! Especially when you're using it 3 times a day every day of the week. With this being your only dining area, you might want to dress it up a little more and at the same time, keep it practical enough for every day. Could you run pics from different angles around the entire space? I feel like there are major things we haven't seen yet that might affect the advice you're getting. You have a GREAT space but must consider it's use, then decide on the look you like and go for it! Lucky you! You have so many options! If you're feeling overwhelmed, do consider consulting a kitchen designer who will be able to guide you in making it the kitchen that works for you. Regarding the wall of cabinets, as suggested by other posts, glass inserts would glam up that area, the overhanging counter needs to go or be moved to the opposite side of the counter if you prefer counter seating as opposed to a banquette.
#HOUZZ FORUMS CABINETS WINDOWS#
Do you need a breakfast nook, as I suggested along with a dining table or would the area near the windows be better suited to use as a small seating area for guests to be near the cook while she's busy in the kitchen. First and foremost, you must decide how you want the entire space to function. You don't have a window with natural light in the kitchen work area, so I would consider going with a light wall color. You obviously would still have room for a dining table near the windows. Add a small round table and a chair or two around that for a small breakfast nook. I agree with the previous post regarding adding a banquette on the back side of the island.
