The Top 4 Dining Table Trends In 2017

Many people often overlook the importance of having a wonderful dining table; therefore, you shouldn’t belong to that category of people! When choosing a dining table for your abode, you should look for a table that not only accentuates the interiors of your dining room, but is also contemporary and trendy.

Why should you pay attention to your dining table? Well, for a start, it is a focal point in your abode and the dining room serves as the platform where you host gatherings with your relatives, family, and friends. Having a wonderful dining table also gives off a mark of wealth and prosperity. When acquiring a dining table, you must ensure that it is strong, sturdy and expertly crafted. Without further ado, here are the top 4 dining table trends in 2017! For more information on dining table styles that are trending right now, you should consider visiting https://www.danetti.com/dining-furniture/dining-tables.

1. Chairs? Who needs them?

Benches are making a huge comeback in the world of dining table designs. People no longer acquire chairs to serve as dining seat arrangements. Not only are benches ideal for use in small spaces, it also allows for a more intimate seating arrangement. And, if you have used benches before, you know that you won’t need to compromise on your seating space.

2. Leave out the junk

Previously, people used to fill their dining rooms with various accessories such as pictures, mementos, and what not. However, stuffy dining rooms are no longer in fashion. If you are planning to acquire a new dining table set comprising of matching table and chairs, you should stop immediately. What should you do instead? Well, on this occasion, variety is the way to go; you can mix furniture styles, and fabrics. If the seating arrangements are blended in different colors and styles, it gives off a more comfortable atmosphere.

3. Rustic theme

If you think that the ¨rustic¨ theme implies roughing your dining room, you should understand that you are living in a contemporary world. And, in this world, boasting a rustic theme implies having farming furniture such as a rough-hewn wood table to serve as a dining table. As long as the dining table is made of wood and has some wear to it, you are good to go. A rustic theme creates an inviting, relaxed atmosphere and can prove to be perfect for encouraging gatherings and conversations at the dinner table.

4. Make the room more glamorous

If you thought that mirrors only go well with walls, you must still be living in 2014. In 2017, mirrored furniture is all the rage! So, what does mirrored furniture in the dining room achieve? Well, it simply provides more drama to the room. Some of the mirrored furniture that are trendy at the moment include mirrored buffets, mirrored sideboards, and antique mirrors. You can also place leaning mirrors with other visually appealing artwork to add further drama to the dining room.

The Workshop: A Pastry Chef’s Space to Create and Innovate

Never ones to be satisfied by trends or convention, rising culinary stars Chef Miko Aspiras and Chef Kristine Lotilla have made it their mission to elevate the Filipino dessert
experience. Located within the Le Petit Soufflé restaurant in the Mega Fashion Hall is their latest offering to the Metro Manila food scene—the Workshop Bespoke Bakery.

A workshop is a space brimming with possibilities. It is a place where people hunker down to create, experiment, and labor with much dedication and love. This is what this new bespoke bakery is for the two young chefs. Chef Miko confides, “As pastry chefs, we wanted a space where we could create. If we ever got inspired, there would be a space for us to do it. This is our working shed.”

Each one armed with a background in hotels, the two wanted to go beyond the usual cupcakes, brownies, and cakes and prove that Filipino talent is capable of so much more than your run-of-the-mill desserts. “All of our offerings are made of the finest ingredients, crafted with technique and precision. We give painstaking attention to detail, flavors, and quality. Each creation speaks of our team’s dedication to the art of desserts,” explains Chef Kristine. The chefs are committed to educating and training each member of their staff, sharing their knowledge of the technique required to produce high quality pastries. “Many of our staff have no culinary background, and we strive to train them to become skilled patissiers and bakers,” she emphasizes.

Customers can expect unusual menu items such as the Matcha Canelé, the Guava Cheese Tart, artisanal Valrhona chocolate bars, and decadent Entremets — treats you would be hard pressed to find in just any restaurant. And the best part is that the chefs are more than willing to customize desserts for hopeful customers, using all of the flavors, techniques, and inspirations they have gathered from their travels. The Workshop is where fancy meets fun and avant garde. Your potluck dessert contribution will never be the same.

“We try to be risky with our desserts. We want to introduce new flavors and techniques. We owe this to our fellow Filipinos!” Chef Kristine says. With that in mind, customers must visit the workshop with a hungry stomach, a craving sweet tooth, and most importantly, an open mind and heart.

“Be adventurous! It will be worth it,” Chef Miko promises. “This is our invitation: take a bite out of our joy!”
