The dining room:  a gathering space for friends and family to eat and bond over a delicious meal.  As we are deep in the holiday season, where some of us may only utilize these rooms this time of year, we know the importance of gathering and making memories around the table.  We see lots of laughter and passing home-cooked meals down the row.  Let’s take a look at some of our top dining rooms we have staged this year.

#5: Westerville, Ohio

This spacious dining room with seating for 8 was a perfect spot for entertaining.  It even had space at the front of the room for a couple of arm chairs for after-dinner coffee (or some cocktails and wine!).  This home was on the market in January 2019 and went into contract in 8 days.  Impressive!

#4: Dublin, Ohio

We consider it fate (or a hard-to-break shopping habit) when we have artwork that matches the room perfectly.  This spacious dining room with seating for six and blue accessories tied into the neutral walls and gorgeous floors.  Buyers felt the same way as this home was in contract in 4 days.

#3: Wingate Farms, Delaware, Ohio

This particular home within Wingate Farms had some of the most peaceful 360-degree views of its 2.7 acres of land.  We felt like we were at an upscale vacation lodge.  This dining room, being the first thing you see when you walk in the front doors, had to make an impression.  Creams and tans played off the wood trim, and modern art coordinated perfectly with the lighting.

#2: Evans Farm, Lewis Center, Ohio

This dining room is #goals.  We consider the centerpiece to be a showstopper.  We collaborated with Fortin Ironworks in Grandview to attach metal and transform the candle centerpiece to be memorable to all.  The wood itself came from a shipwreck off of Florida – how cool is that?  Custom artwork came from the talented local artist Dennis Rano, who perfectly envisioned and finished out this space.  The dark walls with high white wainscoting contrasted perfectly with the dark walls, and the lighting was modern and gorgeous.  Another room we were beyond excited to design AND stage.

#1: Grandview Heights, Ohio

An entertainer’s space in Grandview, near the heart of downtown, this home had brand new EVERYTHING.  We filled the space with a large table, an oversized console and mirror, and seating for 8.  We can’t decide which was our favorite:  the ceiling detail or the modern light.  This room made a statement, and we are proud of the final product.
