The dining room is quite similar to the living room on many accounts: it is versatile although it’s mostly used for having family meals such as lunch or dinner, but it’s so much more than that: the dining room is the place you choose to use when you want to host dinner for your friends or a formal dinner with someone.

You can use it for other activities when the coffee table is just too small but, unlike the living room, you can’t use the dining room for careless lounging because a dining chair can’t be as comfortable as a sofa for that. CovetED will show you how to decorate your dining room in the mid-century modern style and you are the ones to decide what you’re gonna use it for.

Although mid-century modern style first gained popularity in the 1940s, the style’s organic materials, simple Bauhaus-inspired lines, and graphic patterns are just as appealing today and it has gained followers all over the world. This look is all about organic style and ease of living, which is reflected in their structure. Besides simple lines and pure forms, this style is also characterised by innovative accents and out-of-the-box art elements.
