The dining room is one of the most public areas of a house. It is not just where you may eat dinner with your immediate family, but also where you bring friends, loved ones, and long lost relatives to reconnect over food. With the dining room holding such importance, it is no surprise that many people put a great deal of time into designing and styling the space. The 20 dining rooms included in this post are unique, but each creates a safe and welcoming atmosphere where any family would be happy to convene after hours - or even years - apart.
