I am a clutz. I will never have light fabric chairs in my home.

Just OK to me; nothing I'd want to see in my home.

Great find! I used my 'enlarge button' to look at the detail, and I love the mellow, rich wood detail in the crown mouldings, window and French doors!

This dining room strikes me as being in one of those swank, vintage buildings, where they spared no expense in architectural flourishes. The sense of space it gives, and the many-paned windows with light pouring in, establish serenity.

I'd subtract a few of the chairs, to lessen any suggestion of 'conference room', and would switch out the chandelier for something a little more romantic. But I agree that it is a pretty dining space with tons of potential.

@Oznell Those crown moldings won me over the minute I saw them. Serene was also one of the first words that came to my mind when I saw this.

I like your idea of taking away some of the chairs.

I do like this dining room. I would put a few more pieces of art on the walls. I love the drapes especially for privacy. The chairs look comfortable and also love the design. Appealing and lovely!

It's a little drab. Having a print or two would help tremendously. I'd like different (and more) artwork. I also can't stand window treatments that puddle on the floor!!!!! The dining room table set is really nice but I'd have the chair I was sitting in stained at my first meal....LOL!. Those windows, french doors and crown moldings are beautiful!!!

I like the rug, from what I can see of it.

The drapes are a big no for me. I don't care for drapes, especially those that puddle on the floor. They're clean for the first day or two and that's it. I've never understood why they need to puddle on the floor.

I don't care for the rest of the room. Most of these rooms are too formal for me.

Its pretty, but it needs a little something, its a little drab to me even though they have a nice colored rug, it still seems a bt drab.

It does give off a Conference Room vibe to me.

I like it but remove 2 chairs and add a big leafy green tree in the right corner.

I love the rug color.

I like the floor to show, so I would get rid of the rug. I think that would allow more contrast. I'm not a fan of the dark woodwork, and I think the color on the wall should be a little creamer, and lighter. The beige they have now adds a dreary cast to this beautiful room.

While I don't find this room unattractive neither do I find in particularly appealing. The furniture and art don't do much for me nor does the extent of all the plain looking dark wood molding. In the right room it might look attractive, but for some reason the rest of this room doesn't seem to support it. Overall, I find the room sort of flavorless, though I do like the rug.

I don't care for the chandelier...love the color of the drapery panels. Not a fan of upholstery on dining room chairs, except for the seats. Looks like a conference room table with so much upholstery.
