Sarah Stacey Interior Design Photography by Adrienne Breaux We fitted this awkwardly shaped eating area with banquette seating, which increased the space from four dining spots to 6. The table is transitional in style, white with a copper top, and contrasts nicely with the black and white houndstooth cushion. The space is finished out with an iron orb pendant.

When this project began, the homeowner wasn’t simply looking for a dining table. They were envisioning a complete dining experience—one that felt intentional, cohesive, and timeless. Rather than designing the table as a standalone piece, we proposed something more refined and innovative: a matching dining table and bench set, crafted as one unified design. Both the table and the bench are made from solid black walnut, chosen for its rich tone and expressive natural grain. A translucent black resin flows seamlessly through the wood, enhancing the organic lines while adding depth and contrast without overpowering the material’s natural beauty. Designing the bench to mirror the table was a deliberate choice. It allows the set to feel visually balanced, creates flexible seating for gatherings, and introduces a modern alternative to traditional dining chairs—all while maintaining harmony in form and finish.
