Beautiful Space, More Comfortable Living

Eight dining rooms dominated by dark-wood furniture

Eight dining rooms dominated by dark-wood furniture

Our latest lookbook rounds up eight elegant dining rooms where dark-wood furniture, including tables, chairs and shelving, takes centre stage.

The dining room furniture pieces featured in this lookbook make an impact with their dark tones, which are often evocative of vintage interiors.

Whether made from teak, walnut or rosewood, the rich colours and grains of the natural materials make for a luxurious addition to dining spaces and offer a contrasting option to light-toned woods popular in minimalist and Scandi-inspired interiors.

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen’s archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring stylish hallways, green-toned bathrooms and interiors decorated with zellige tiles.
