Some of our fondest and long-lasting memories often come from small moments of togetherness and there is no better excuse to bring people together at Christmas than food! Coming together around the dining table is perfect for creating seasonal moments to remember. Whether you are hosting the crazy family Christmas, a festive work lunch for your team, or even just staging a home for display this season, here are some tips from our design team to help create an inviting dining setting for the festivities...
Our dark ceramic tabletops are the perfect base for a cosy, moody festive dinner setting.
SUBTLE SEASONAL ELEGANCE
Set the scene with a simple look that incorporates personal, seasonal effects that are subtle without compromising on a clean aesthetic. Avoid overly themed decorations and rely on the smaller, simpler details to add the festive touch. Elements from nature are the perfect decorative accent; think pinecones, mistletoe, holly, and rustic twigs.
Get the mood lighting right with background lamps, low hung pendants, and twinkly decorative lighting.
TWINKLE TWINKLE
The most effective way to create a cosy atmosphere around the table is to keep a low-lit room and include an array of crackling candles and twinkly lights. Feature candles at different heights and levels with background lamps to give a bit more functional lighting during the occasion.

TONE ON TONE
A tonal colour scheme makes for a perfect backdrop for comfort and cosines. Thinking in complete tones and cohesions, choose shapes and colours that come together and complement each other harmoniously. Style the dining table with the same colour theory as you would a bed, with layers of texture and tones that follow the same colour pallet, with the addition of some smaller accent ‘pops’.
