This is one space that I'd consider accent painting the tall triangular wall section behind the table if you want to define the dining area. It looks big and bright enough to pull this off.

What a fabulous space!!!!

Cool space but IMO enough wood colors with the floor, the table and the beams. I like the wishbone chairs but IMO a bit too much fro the space with all the legs and arms and the same issue with the legs and the Eiffel. I think you could do the gjhost chairs th ones with no arms in a color visually you could enen have the arms I think As for yhe lighting I would look for a fixture above the table that is 3-5 heads on a long and ideally articulatin to get some light into that corner Make sure all LEDs 49000K for th bulbs no matter what fixture you choose

The floors are SOOOOOO pretty!!! Omg love!! Anyways agreed with Patricia. Ghost chairs will probably suit the space best. Open it up ... you can accent each chair. I once saw a white fur throw over each seat that made it look cozy and pretty or even a cushion on each ... great space

With the various wood tones you already have, I think black chairs would be very complimentary and the contrast will be more interesting.

There are so many styles and price points and to help, you could search Pinterest for black dining chairs and there are links to the retailers. It could be fun to go with an eclectic look.

I would suggest removing the curtains, if you don’t need for privacy and move the console to the window wall and add a lamp for extra lighting.

Can you hang anything directly over table or is a swag your only option? That info will help with suggestions.

In regards to a rug, I really think defining/adding interest would be a good idea. I’ve always had a rug under my dining table and it‘s never been an issue if you chose the right type. Consider the rest of your space when choosing style and color.

I‘m sure you would have gotten around to accessorizing the table and here is a nice idea (with or without a runner) of using a grouping of hand made pottery.

Ghost chairs are very uncomfortable to sit on for any length of time. I have one as an accent chair, but I wouldn’t want them for dining chairs. They also scratch very easily.

I like the black wishbone chairs Freedom posted.

Amazing apartment! Hope you keep us updated on what you decide. :)

You can always get small round cylindrical up lights to tuck into the darkest corners and provide some interesting light. Perhaps some large plants in front of them to cast interesting shadows. We see a rolled up rug along the back wall.....????

I had the same thought re scratches on ghost chairs and liking black wishbone. in my small, open plan house the table is antique mahogany, floors are white oak (but not as pretty as yours) and I like the way my black breuer chairs with cane seats work.

Wow, thanks everyone for all of the ideas! And thank you for the kind word too. I'll try to reply to your comments.

@freedomplace1, I agree with @Jinx. I love the black wishbone, perhaps with a natural cord seat for contrast and lightness. I live pretty far north and the winters are dreary—we need all the lightness we can get this time of year :)

@lisaam, it had not occurred to me to accent paint any walls. What a fun idea! I'll come back to it once the space has come together a little more—I think it could be really fun.

@Patricia Colwell Consulting, thanks for the ideas! What I like about the ghost chair is its lightness/airiness. I had previously considered the bertoia wire chair but, unfortunately, found it uncomfortable. It sounds like the ghost chair has the same drawback :(

@Maureen, thank you for all of your thoughts! I think you (and others) are right that a black chair could work nicely here. Black is used elsewhere in the apartment (there are black steel braces holding the wood beams together in places), so it would fit nicely in. I have some ideas at the end of my post.

I like the idea of removing the curtains. I hadn't thought of it, but it makes sense. No need for privacy in this room at this height. I'll play around with it tomorrow. I'll also try moving the console over. I think it's probably too short for that space, but maybe I'll have other ideas when I do that.

I'm not sure what you mean by "swag" being my only option. I can hang something directly over the table. In fact, I was considering one of these lamps. I like that it is light, it projects light in more directions than just down, and that it does not obstruct the view.

I actually reconsidered with respect to the rug and I think you're right. I had one folded along the wall (good eye @ptreckel!) that I unfolded after I made my post. I don't think it's the rug I would want for this space, but I can see now how a rug would be nice to define the area.

I love your suggestion of decorating with some pottery! I'm a novice potter myself, so it gives me a reason to practice.

@ptreckel I like your idea of a light in the dark corner with some plants. I'm a plant lover myself, so the more plants the merrier! Perhaps I could add a large glowing globe on the floor in the corner? I'll think it over…

Now some chair ideas! As you probably notice, I like wood a lot, but if wood tones are better avoided for the chairs, no problem! Also, I like that these chairs all have rounded upper backs, where you can rest your elbows. I find it pretty comfortable, especially if the dinner party has gone one a bit.

1. Black wishbone, natural cord seat

2.a. Black metal / soaped oak (will darken over time)

2.b. Black metal / smoked oak (closer tone to table)

2.c. Black metal / black wood (chic!)

3. Black elbow stool

Thanks again everyone! And these are just ones I found in a few minutes of looking, but if you have better ideas let me know.

Swagged 😀 and glad you don’t have to do.

I love your light choice and think the smoked oak or all black chairs may work best in being complimentary. Lovely pottery! Maybe wait to complete room before deciding on rug addition and if going that route, waiting will also help with choosing to suit. Going to be a great space.

Ohh, I see. Unfortunately, will probably have to swag, at least to start. I could do some drywall work eventually, but not for now.

Thanks for compliment! And the advice, been very helpful already. I’ll go check out some chairs this weekend!

I like #1, love the seat. :)

@einportlandor I was wondering when someone would mention that! Indeed, comfort is paramount and I have not tested any of these chair yet. If they are not comfortable, then I'm afraid I'll have to hunt for some more chairs. I will say, the wishbones I have sat in before and find them very comfortable.

The rope seat, curved back and the fact that they are a classic style suggest likely comfort. I hope that the black wisbones win--- I love them!
