Sliding doors and a round table – a small, smart and versatile dining room

Space limitations are turned into an advantage in this dining area. Wood notes and braided fibre set a natural feel, while airiness and flexibility is taken care of through clever use of storage, seating and those smooth-moving doors.

A corner that’s ready to handle the pressure

In this busy spot, right between the table and the kitchen, all items have to earn their place. The superhero sideboard holds everything from tableware to brunch equipment, and still leaves room for some carefully chosen decorative storage.

A seamless transition – when you want it to be

Adding a Japanese touch, SKYTTA sliding doors also come with more benefits. Pushed to the side, the living room, dining area and kitchen become one flowing unit. Draw the doors shut, and it has a calming effect on both sides – with the practical option of closing off the table and kitchen when needed.

Breakfast options and more

Flexibility in a small dining area often comes down to easily arranging the seating and supporting cast. Here, a seated, calm meal is ensured by a wheeled cart, foldable extra seats, nearby shelves and stackable chairs. (Don’t be fooled by the slim silhouette – they’re packed with comfort!)

A gathering point for all hours

As the connecting joint between kitchen and living room, the sliding doors are a perfect match for this dining area. Either seclusion for studying, busy breakfasts and noisy kitchen sessions, or inclusion for airy dining and socializing. Meanwhile the round table is easy to move around, takes up minimal space and eliminates snagging.
