At Espaço Libris, dining room decoration starts from how the space is actually used, ensuring a balance between functionality and aesthetic language, in line with the lifestyle and concept of the home.
Layout, lighting and furniture are defined together, with attention to circulation distances, the scale of the pieces and the right light for everyday use. The result is spaces that are clear in function, coherent as a whole and made to last.
"Espaço Libris was fantastic. They recommended several companies to restore the house and, together, we built the solutions step by step. They were a partner not only in the decoration but also in the restoration and construction. Two words sum up my relationship with Espaço Libris: trust and excellence."

When decorating a small dining room, it is essential to pay attention to the layout and the position of each element. Tables and chairs with light lines, along with well-placed lighting, help make the space feel larger without overcrowding it. Bespoke furniture is also an effective solution, as each piece can be tailored to the room's actual dimensions.
Bringing the dining room and living room together relies on visual cohesion and good organisation, ensuring continuity between the two zones. Materials, colours and textures should flow naturally from one to the other, while lighting and the position of the table help to define distinct areas within the same space.
Choosing between a round or rectangular table depends on the size of the room and the number of people using it. Round tables work best in compact areas and make it easier to move around, while rectangular tables suit longer rooms and offer more flexibility in the number of seats.
The ideal dining room lighting balances visual comfort with practicality. A pendant light over the table, hung at the right height, helps create a balanced, comfortable atmosphere. Wherever possible, artificial lighting should be complemented by natural light, creating different moods throughout the day.
Yes, a rug in the dining room makes sense, as long as it is large enough to accommodate the table and allow the chairs to be pulled back. As it will see frequent use, the rug should be made from hard-wearing, easy-care materials, criteria that made-to-measure soft furnishings help to guarantee.
To decorate a dining room wall without visual overload, choose a few statement pieces, such as a mirror, artwork or decorative panels, which add depth and identity to the space. What matters is respecting the proportions of the wall and keeping in line with the visual concept of the rest of the room.
Yes. Hiring an interior decorator for your dining room is worthwhile, especially in open-plan spaces or smaller rooms. A professional helps define the layout, select pieces suited to the actual space and to everyday use, and avoid decisions that could compromise both the final result and the budget.
To refresh your dining room without building works, you can reorganise the layout, introduce new furniture, textiles, lighting and decorative pieces, and repaint. These changes have an immediate impact and require no structural alterations.
