- Using a dining table instead of an island in a kitchen can be both stylish and functional if you choose the right height and materials.
- Artwork above a dining table should be proportional to the wall space rather than the table itself if the table is floating in the room.
- Painting, wallpapering, or applying a wall liner are effective ways to modernize dated fake wood paneling in a living room.
