White Modern Dining Room

A dazzling white dining room may raise a few eyebrows among parents of spaghetti slinging toddlers, but in this age of wipe clean modern furniture materials and washable paint finishes this crisp and clean look can belong to anyone.

However, this is not the case in any of these 33 dining rooms that utilise beautiful accessories to make each decor scheme completely different to the next. Join us on a journey to discover distinguished dining sets, statement dining table pendant lights and a sprinkling of bright accent ideas.

Let treasured items inspire your scheme. A colourful travel poster is the inspiration for the tropical palette of this coral and green accented scheme. Jade green modern dining chairs encircle a round dining table with a white marble top, under a coral coloured dining room pendant light. A bulky white dining room buffet blends into the background.

Add a look of expense and luxury with golden trims. The subtle sheen brought by a gold dining pendant, slim ceiling inlay, and the golden legs of chic grey dining chairs and black console unit simply oozes upper class. Don't go overboard on this metallic though as it will have the entirely opposite effect.

Don't be afraid to mix things up. With a plain white backdrop and a clear glass dining table, this room scheme could afford a little mix and match when it came to selecting the dining chairs.

Contrasting colour accessories give maximum impact. Three orange tinted versions of dining ghost chairs add extra interest to this carte blanche. A blue based art canvas lends terrific contrast to the tangerine chairs. Blue and orange accessories pop out from white decor around the room.

Introduce a colourful area rug. Just because your walls are painted white doesn't mean you can't be seated in a colourful dining area. This striped red rug design is matched by dominant red artwork. A single red accent chair is quirkily positioned along one side of the extendable wooden dining table, rather than placed at the more obvious head of the table. The shape of the dining pendant light emulates pomegranate seeds, which can be seen tumbling from the table centrepiece. A similar chandelier is available here.

Think outside the (white) box. A swing arm wall lamp is a novel way to add lighting over a dining room table, and this black Flos Mod 265 is just the ticket to complement a modern white dining room table. A cheaper replica is available here.

Make your table centrepiece suit your needs. You don't have to splash out on fancy candlesticks if you're not the dinner party type. A simple modern fruit bowl will do.

Earth tones add depth and warmth. Choose a white dining room cabinet that has wooden shelving nooks, or layer a wooden dining set in front of plain white dining room furniture. Make a centrepiece with a ceramic vase of green fronds to finish the look.
