Modernizing a Classical Dining Room

Location: Apex, NC

Designer Credits: Lisa Rice

Project Overview:

My client did not like many of the classic architectural features of his house including columns, moldings, and trims, which made it feel more formal and traditional than he wanted. We transformed this client’s dining room into a transitional space in a muted blue-green palette which blends traditional elegance with modern simplicity, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere.

Our extendable dining table in a weathered driftwood gray wood finish is perfect for holiday entertaining and, paired with upholstered chairs in a complementary cream fabric, adds to the tranquil feeling of this space.

The stunning lily pond oil painting in soft greens, blues, and neutrals, becomes the focal point and ensures the room feels cohesive and harmonized.
