A small dining room with a big heart

Have a seat at this table where the next activity is never far away. Thanks to maximised storage and clever solutions, this small-space dining area can comfortably seat family and friends – and there’s still room for both playfulness and colour.

The art of making storage feel more like art

The things you need are always within reach at this table, whether the moment calls for tableware, a board game or a magazine. The arched placement of EKET cabinets adds an embracing feeling to the space – a mood taken even further by the textile-studded sofa beckoning you to relaxing times at the table.

Think musical chairs, but in reverse

With limited floor space, a small surplus of stackable chairs and stools makes seating easy to adjust for any occasion. Sqeezing in last-minute guests, freeing up space for freedom to move – no problem. A trolley is an ideal complement, offering a handy surface and minimising the need to get up from the table.

The untapped storage potential of your walls

It’s not just chairs and stools that can be neatly stacked by the wall. Cabinets and shelving use the vertical space to great success. Besides offering instant clutter control, they form a fine-looking backdrop for game night and more.

Unboxing your next gathering at the table

With spaces that need to go swiftly from one activity to another – like this dining area – it’s all about enabling smooth transitions. Like keeping a game boxed in a nearby shelf. Easy to take out, enjoy, and then stow away again. Let’s call it a positive domino effect.

Keeping up with the flow

It may keep a low profile, but the table is the true star of this space. Everything else is there to make it the spot everyone wants to spend time in. The cosy comfort of the sofa, the fluid flexibility of the chairs and stools, the sheer practicality of handy storage everywhere. See how neatly it all fits together?
