Whether it’s a matter of opening up a wall to join kitchen to dining area or “carving out a breakfast nook” in the corner of your cooking area, the place we eat is no longer exiled from the place we create our meal. Because the preparation of our meals has become a joyful part of our family life, it makes sense that the “consuming” would be done in the same celebratory space.
The return of nook sets, which are L-shaped bench sets that efficiently capitalize on corners, is a great indicator of this. Not only does their compact nature and “storage under the seats” promote efficiency, the premise of sliding in beside someone on a bench naturally facilitates coming together as a family.
On a side note: we are all well aware of those rainy, shorter days ahead, so now may be a good time to bring in brightness (but keep it clean and orderly – promotes good digestion) add some extra lighting or color. Yellows, paler greens, Tuscan reds and even pinks are on the scene for fall because no one wants to eat in a dark corner.
Finish off your feasting area with a nod to nature: wood is good and what better place to find that than Murphy’s. To see what else is hot in the world of dining sets and find the best prices of the year, shop Murphy Furniture’s dining sale, the entire month of October
