In this photo of an octagon-shaped breakfast area, designer Jill Rankl used a large round table to soften the lines of the space while highlighting its unique architectural detailing to the outdoors.
The large resin stone table seats six comfortably and lends itself to intimate conversations. The pedestal base allows the chairs to slide in and out with ease giving flexibility of squeezing one more person in. Her choice of six fully-upholstered side chairs with their scoop back, follow the round of the table freeing up additional space. The rich chocolate brown, blue & gold brocade damask on the chairs not only warms the space but add simplistic elegance and decoration.
Given the tall ceiling height and large table size, she placed an oversized gold gilt drum fixture/chandelier to make a visually appealing statement.
