The ability to question established ideas is what moves design forward. When we are commissioned to redesign a home interior, we are not constrained by thoughts of what went before. When required we will often spin space around. By physically removing walls and challenging mindset we eliminate real and perceived barriers to achieve a sublime balance of function and form. Our knowledge and experience allows us to mix craft skills with the latest techniques, methods and finest materials.
Recent projects have seen us turn prestigious properties with uninspiring interiors into sumptuous, opulent places to live. As part of a major up-grade, we have entered phase two of the total refurbishment of our current showrooms building in Southport. The project will see the transformation of our kitchen studios into an extended suite, comprising new offices, kitchen sets, from each of our three distinctive brands. Plus eventually, for the first time, our showrooms will feature exquisite, luxury bathrooms and bedrooms on display together with examples

A SENSE OF OCCASION
DINING ROOMS
By Kelly Hoppen
Dedicated dining rooms have been undergoing a reappraisal in recent years. There was a time when they were considered rather redundant spaces, often used instead as home offices or playrooms.
H
owever, increasingly there has been a return to the idea of having a separate dining room, used mainly for entertaining, in addition to an informal dining zone linked to the kitchen. The latter is more likely to be used for family meals or relaxed supper parties, providing a contrast in mood and style to the formality of the dining room. If you do have room for both, it makes good sense. The joy of a dining room is that it becomes synonymous with special occasions, the place where friends and family gather for traditional Sunday lunches, festivals, celebrations and birthdays. It is more likely to be used in the evening, so you can be braver with moody colours, rich textures and bold artwork. By contrast, the family dining area is more of a daytime space and its design needs to be coherent with that of the kitchen. Whether you have room for both, or just one, remember that the dining room comes alive because of the people who gather there to laugh, talk and eat. You will achieve something wonderful if you keep this at the forefront of your mind and make comfort a priority. This applies not just to the chairs you choose – ones that prevent aching bottoms or backs – but also to atmospheric lighting, the music you play, the food you serve and the care you take over dressing the table. 10

FEATURE | The Dining Room
Key Considerations First ask yourself one very basic but necessary question: how many people do you wish to fit around the table? This might sound incredibly obvious, but your answer will affect not only the size and shape of the table you choose, but also its design – in particular, where the legs are placed. You can buy a table that looks as though it will easily seat four people along one side, but if the legs are poorly positioned, you might find you can only fit three. If you are buying your table and chairs from different suppliers, you need to make sure that they are physically compatible. This applies to both the length and height of the table – few things are more uncomfortable than sitting at a table that is either too high or too low. Remember, too, a table must be filled with people. There is no point buying one that seats twelve, just because you can, if you are more likely to entertain for six. All that empty space will just look neglected and sad. With so many extendable designs available, there is no reason why you shouldn’t buy one that can adapt easily to your needs. The shape of table you choose will be determined by the shape of the room. Rectangular tables are a joy to dress, because they create an immediate grid reference within the room. A rectangular or square table is the ideal canvas on which to place banners or runners. If you are splashing out on a really wonderful dining table, consider commissioning one to order – perhaps wood with a bronze runner down the centre, or two contrasting shades of lacquer. Round tables have the advantage of allowing everyone to talk to everyone else. However, these do require more space than you might imagine, as people need to be able to move freely around the table when the chairs are slightly pushed out. If you are designing from a floor plan it is essential to allow enough flow when deciding what size and shape of furniture to order. In a dining zone – the continuation of an open-plan living and cooking space – you need a table and chairs that fit with the style and mood of the adjoining areas, while also imbuing it with its own.

FEATURE | The Dining Room
Furniture If the budget is tight, spend on the chairs rather than the table. This is because the table can always be covered and beautifully dressed, so arguably it could be made of simple plywood and nobody need know. The chairs, however, are like pieces of sculpture in an otherwise uncluttered room. Rather than buy a set that is all matching, consider shaking up the look by having, say, two over-scaled wing chairs at each end and three or four low tub chairs on each side. Introduce some wonderful fabrics, such as dark velvets against lighter linens, or leather teamed with suede. Remember, too, that the backs of dining chairs are as important as the seats – you might introduce panels of contrasting colour or texture to make these a bold visual statement.
Storage is also important. The dining room is the natural place to keep tableware, glasses, linen and cutlery, so if possible allow space for a sideboard, buffet or dresser. These traditional pieces of furniture have now been rejuvenated in many interesting forms, materials and textures, so you are sure to find one that suits your own style. Make a note of what you want to keep here and carry the dimensions, such as those of extra large platters or dishes, with you when you are out looking. Ask yourself whether you want to display tableware and glasses or keep them out of sight. Also, consider whether you need a serving area or a place to keep food warm. Think how you yourself like to entertain – as with other rooms, it is about what your own requirements are.

LUXURY HOMES & INTERIORS
Style The dedicated dining room is a place where you can be brave in terms of decoration, because it is about giving guests a ‘wow’ moment. Since it is likely to be used more by night than by day, you can choose darker, more atmospheric tones and textures. Keep to a neutral palette, one in keeping with the rest of your home, but intensify colours to a degree. This is a space to dress with confidence. Hard floors work well in dining rooms – and have practical advantages, too – but because the dining room is likely to lead off the hall, there should be some correlation between the two. The best houses are those in which you move seamlessly from one area to the next, and the floor is the best way of ensuring that sense of continuity. The same applies to a dining zone adjoined to the kitchen – design the floor to lead the eye with ease from one area to the other. In rectangular-shaped rooms, banners on floors are particularly effective – such as two contrasting shades of wood or stone. Curtains are likely to be drawn closed at
night, so introduce glamour to the windows with wonderfully shimmering layers of sheers, silks or taffeta. Allowing fabric to pool to the floor adds to the feeling of luxury and extravagance. Lighting Whether the space is formal or informal, lighting is key to the success of a dining room. Glittering chandeliers, huge industrial pendants or other bold statement lights look particularly wonderful when hung low over the table, having the effect of drawing people together beneath them. However, if you have a low pendant light, you cannot also introduce tall candelabras, as the two will fight for space. Candles are the natural accompaniment to dining, but as they cast very little actual light, you will need to boost them with indirect, subtly placed additional light sources. Do not light your dining room so brightly that guests feel selfconscious and uncomfortable. If you have chosen a fabulous textured wall surface, make sure this is enhanced fully by wall washers or floor washers that add an additional layer of beauty. LUXURY HOMES & INTERIORS

Opposite - This elegantly controled dining room has been designed to comfortably seat 18. The white-lacquered wood floor provides the framework for the taupe-lacquered table and unusual cross-legged chairs. Two large consoles are positioned against the windows, while a pair of ceramic pendant lights accentuate their symmetry. The white shutters, lacquered to match the floor, act as a subtle divide between this space and the next. The floor lamp at the far end of the room is Conversation Apparatus by Fadi Mansour.
Below - In a spacious dining room such as this, it is important to keep the layout of the furniture strong and simple. Attention is focused on the table itself by the grid of whitelacqured flooring against the natural timber, The two bold console tables emphasize the grid structure and provide a place for display. At one end of the room is a sideboard, with doors to the kitchen on either side, while shuttered divides at the other end open into the adjacent room.
Slatted screen doors which can be closed to divide the dining room from the living room.
IN DETAIL Dining Room First ask yourself when the dining room is most likely to be used and by whom, and is it a separate room or part of an open-plan layout?

Decide how many people you want to seat around the table and assess the shape of the room as to which shape of table will work best. Make sure that your chosen chairs are compatible with the table in terms of size, height, position of table legs and the allowing of flow. Consider whether this is more of a night-time space or a daytime one and remember that lighting must be as comfortable as the furniture. Make sure you have allowed for enough storage.
Underpin the scheme with the grid – by using a runner on the dining table, perhaps, or by incorporating a banner of contrasting material. Collect different sets of tableware, linen, cutlery and glasses to create a variety of looks and moods.
Dining rooms are often the natural place to display collections and artwork, and this also requires good lighting. If you are lighting paintings, photographs, objets or sculpture from above, use filters to distribute light evenly and reduce glare. If you want to highlight a small work of art, use a tight beam of light that really throws it into focus – particularly important in a room with a high ceiling.

Harrogate based workshops. Managing Director Mark Caulfield’s deeprooted family history in design, construction and architecture enable them to deliver total customer satisfaction whatever the project requirements.

Our incredible story begins in the early 20th century with our founding by master mason, Henry Rotherham. The company was later handed down to Joseph Rotherham senior, who had already inherited his father’s unquestionable skills and ability. Joseph Rotherham senior learned the traditional crafts of stone masonry until he went to serve with the Eighth Army Anti-Aircraft division in the Second World War. Returning from war he settled in East Yorkshire and built a reputation as a first-class craftsman. In 1973, Joe Rotherham junior joined him and began to expand the company, especially its technology base, which is now the largest and most advanced in the UK. Through the years J. Rotherham has become the trusted leader in interior and architectural stone products. We use our unrivalled heritage and expertise to deliver bespoke projects, including fireplaces, statues, bathrooms, inlaid flooring, architectural masonry and luxury work surfaces for prestigious clients. We specialise in providing the highest level of service for private clients, interior designers, architects and property developers.
