The Art of Layering: Creating Depth in Dining Table Decor

by Ryan M
06/09/2023

The dining table is the heart of any home, where family and friends gather to share meals, laughter, and stories. Styling your dining table with different homewares can add a personal touch and create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Here are some tips on how to style your dining table with different homewares from Trit:

Choose a Colour Scheme

Select colours that complement each other and create a cohesive look. You need to think about the wood and colour of your dining table to decide a good base. For example, if it’s teak, you may decide to go in the rustic direction. If it’s black oak, any colour will provide a lot more contrast. You can use a neutral base, such as white, beige, or grey, and add pops of colour with different homewares. If you like bright and bold colours, check out our range from Urban Nature Culture.

Mix and Match

Don’t be afraid to mix and match different homewares. You can use different shapes, sizes, and textures to create an eclectic look. You’d be surprised how well different brands mix together.

Layer Different Textures

Use different textures to add depth and dimension to your dining table. You can add different textures with trays, bowls, or candle holders. Consider the selection of materials, like stones and woods for your homewares, to introduce an intriguing mix of surfaces. Our collection features an extensive variety of marble, stone, and wooden bowls and trays, perfectly tailored to complement your personal style.

Add Natural Elements

Bring the outdoors inside by adding natural elements to your dining table. You can use fresh flowers, plants, or greenery to add colour and freshness. For example, you can use a vase of wildflowers, a potted succulent, or a bowl filled with fruit.

Set 1

“I chose these particular pieces to create an earthy and relaxed feel for a dining table.

The Carrie Lamp by Audo Copenhagen creates a soft glow to illuminate the space around it, it can be used to highlight plates of food or create an intended mood for any dinner party.

The Smoked wood serving plate and Athena pedestal creates a functional aspect whilst giving an organic shape to create interest. The Payana Marble jars again are practical but add to the natural tones and textures used to create this purposeful mood.” – Tiffany, Interior Sales Consultant
