Create that cosy feeling
If you think of setting up an exclusive restaurant at home, start the journey with appropriate lighting. As we enter a restaurant, we usually find ourselves in a dim, romantic, and calming environment. So forget about general lighting: candles of various colours and shapes, as well as dimmable table lamps will help you achieve a much better effect. To make the dining area even cosier, consider putting some fluffy cushions or chair pads on your chairs.
“When choosing new textiles or other accessories, consider whether their colour matches your interior, furniture and other items at home. Decorate your table accordingly – this will make it smoothly blend into your home environment.”
Darius Rimkus, IKEA interior designer
