A Modern Dining Room
If 2020 taught us anything, it’s that we should never take socializing for granted. As the world opens back up, we have the unique opportunity to create a space intended for communal gathering. This has shifted décor trends from stuffy and formal, to easy and breezy. Applying the Danish concept of “Hygge,” the name of the game is comfort and community. Create a space that feels warm and airy at the same time. A modern dining room is all about doing more with less. Not only is this minimalist method cost-efficient, but it also puts the emphasis on what really matters – the people you’re with.
Art Director Tip
If you really want to lean into the classic "Hygge" trend, our art director Tirzah Goodman recommends a bold piece of typography to set the mood.

Contemporary Style for Miles
Minimalist wall art can give your dining room a stylish boost without overwhelming your interior. Make sure your dining space is well lit and free of clutter. Choose warm wood as a base for your space, and play with organic accessories. Your dining room should feel like a breath of fresh air. This Scandinavian-inspired atmosphere is ideal for creating a sociable space. Select a piece of wall art that creates a serene, relaxed energy. You want your guests to be able to forget their worries and wind down after a taxing year. Think of your dining room as an escape from the stress of daily life. Experiment with clean lines and simplistic artwork.
