Diary of an Interior Designer: Cape Cod Seaside Home, The Dining Room

One of the best parts of having a spacious home with room for family and friends is sharing a meal.  The Dining Room at our Cape Cod home is the perfect spot with room for everyone.

While I don’t have any before pictures to share, this room started off like so many of the other spaces in this home:  a blank slate with lots of windows and a great water view.  Once again we selected a color palette that would echo the landscape outside: sun, sea, sky and sand ~ with bright pops of color of course!…

 The dining room table can expand to seat 12 (14, if you’re on a very friendly basis).

The ceiling detail lends a formal air to the space, we chose to emphasize this feature with paint.  I love the way it turned out:

Monogrammed chairs, one for each of the owners of the home, add a personalized touch:

 I adore this very special chandelier with seahorses and seashells. The chandelier subtly references  the waterfront location of the home without screaming “We are on the water!” ~ all you have to do to know that is look outside!

 Everywhere you go in this home, you are welcomed and encouraged to stay a while…

Hope you enjoyed this peek at the dining room!
