Versatile Dining Tables: The dining room combines the casual with the elegant in a relaxed way. Vibrant throw pillows rest in each chair for added comfort. Two square plywood tables, skirted in tone-on-tone silk, are paired with rattan chairs. The two tables can be pulled together for more traditional dining or to serve as a buffet for casual entertaining. Subtle textured walls result from a hand-troweled plaster finish. Complementary colors are used on the walls in the two-story space. Between the two colors, a scrolled stencil design, based on the table skirt fabric, spans both areas. A large recess in the wall holds a hutch for storing and displaying serving pieces.
