Quality Marble created this oversized multipurpose countertop, which seems to float in the room.
Due to its substantial size, it is as useful as a breakfast bar as it is as a buffet space for parties.
They say that everything old is new again, and the
’50’s breakfast nook may prove that; as it emerges, once
again, as a comfortable, cozy area that provides a sense of
intimacy.
A trend I have found particularly appealing is the
juxtaposition of different styles of chairs around a dining
table. This look is very nonchalant and implies that your
sense of style is not dictated by any hard and fast rules
and that you are innovative.
Outdoors, bar height tables and chairs have gained in
popularity, as people have enjoyed them in their favorite
pubs and restaurants. Many people say it is like riding
high up in their SUV, where they can see everything.
They also create a different look than your traditional
family-sized dining ensemble.
The point taken is that, while our lifestyles have
become less regulated, our choices of where to dine or
nibble has relaxed as much as our no tie or jacket look,
as we realize that we only have ourselves to please. 9
