Design Clinic 23 - Stunning Dining Room Sets and Letting your Room do the Talking
We’re turning one of our reception rooms into a dining room and I’m looking for beautiful sets of furniture for the room. We’d like it to be in keeping with the rest of our Victorian house?

Emma says: ‘Many of the dining sets we have available from our Brighton and Hove stores would suit your criteria but I’d like to draw your attention to our beautiful Fayence range (pictured). It is classic in design and would sit equally well in a modern white room or a decadent wallpapered space. What sets this range above the rest is its wonderful grey blue finish with very slight distressing and edge highlights. Dining sets for four or six as well as console tables and sideboards with wine racks make this the perfect range with which to furnish your room. Prices start from £99.’
Lettering seems to be all the rage at the moment. I’m looking for some unusual ways to introduce some into my home. What do you suggest?

Nick says: ‘Items with lettering are definitely some of our best sellers at the moment and it’s easy to see why! Lettering in the home allows the rooms do the talking – whether that’s reminding someone you love them or more practical instructions like ‘wash’ or to hang keys! We sell several products with lettering on them: doormats welcoming you home (£18), hooks saying Love, Laugh, Wash, and Home for example (from £4), signs saying Maison, Love, Le Bain, think and inspire to name a few (from £14) and cushions to remind someone you love them (£42)… Browse online or in store.’
