February 02, 2025 Flora-and-fauna wallpaper with painted trim to match. Fabulous geometric floor tile. A rich use of color and pattern. I’m a maximalist at heart and have a weakness for these bold design moves. You’ll see lots of them in today’s post — part 2 of my coverage of the 10th annual Tribeza Interiors Tour, a tour of Austin homes that shows off the work of interior designers. (Here’s part 1 if you want to start there.) Let’s go! Lindsey Hanna Design I could barely tear myself away from the mystical mudroom in the Lindsey Hanna Design home. First off, I adore the Scissortail wallpaper (in sepia) by Counterpart Studios, designed in collaboration with Austin’s chainstitching queens at Fort Lonesome. (For more Fort Lonesome wallpaper, check out this home from the 2023 Tribeza tour.) Sage green paint on the trim picks up the color in the moon spots and flowers’ eyes. It coordinates with the Soci Aura floor tile, whose starry design adds to the romantic nightscape of the Scissortail paper. Thanks, Lindsey Hanna team, for providing spec sheets in your rooms — so helpful! Maybe add paint colors too next time? I’m greedy. In the powder bath, terracotta wall tile warms up the space. The color and geometry of it, with a geometric mirror to match — so good! A Lostine punched-leather pendant adds a tactile, hand-crafted accent. Here’s the spec sheet. In the primary bath, a matte brown concrete tub melted my indifference to showpiece bathtubs. I always suspect those fancy stand-alone bathtubs are rarely filled. And yet they take up so much space for a symbolic (aspirational?) gesture at leisure time or self-care. I dislike a tub even more when it’s shoehorned into a dim shower stall. Who wants to soak in one of those? Here, however, the tub is a tactile work of art. I could get behind a tub this beautiful. Dandelion ceramic floor tile in brown and terracotta set everything off to perfection. Aha, the wall color is provided in this spec sheet — nice! In the girls’ bathroom, Louise Jones’s Stellar Blush wallpaper, available from Supply Showroom, livens the walls. Australian plant lovers, this one is for you. Louise Jones describes the botanically inspired design: “[T]he distinct star-like flower of the blue devil (Eryngium pinnatifidum) shines amongst a beautiful mass of gum leaves, kangarooo paw and acacia blossoms.” G’day, mate! But it was the floor tile that stole my heart: a terracotta star-and-cross by Zia Tile. Love, love, love. The spec sheet Yet another bathroom features teal oval shower tiles with terracotta grout, a terracotta-tile shower floor, and Tropicana Rucksack Green floor tiles from Clay Imports. A fun use of color and pattern! I spotted this snake vase on the dining table on the way out and suspect it’s the work of Austin’s monster-making ceramist Rick Van Dyke. In the entry, fluted paneling and checkerboard floor tile from Clay Imports set off a burl veneer console and mosaic mirror. West Chelsea Contemporary homeowner A sapphire blue Chevy Chevelle and vibrant mural-style wall art greeted visitors at the West Chelsea Contemporary owner’s home in Bryker Woods. The back garden grabbed my attention first, and I explored. Blocks of cut stone lead to a patio under a steel-pipe pergola, enclosed by a living wall for privacy. A Chinese warrior statue wearing a string of beads stands guard. You can see it’s going to be eclectic. A sunburst-patterned table provides outdoor dining space. A few steps down, a sunken patio with fire pit provides another seating area. Look at the vibrant color on the oakleaf hydrangea in the foreground. Inside, it was art, art, art, as befits the owner of a huge contemporary art gallery. The mountain scene is Cleon Peterson’s The Reflection. Another wall features Aboudia’s Les Enfants D’Abidjan Rouge-Orange. A Kiss stool by Barbara Kruger stands nearby. Roby Dwi Antono’s surreal Mystique Moonlight Lamp Dire warnings in framed wooden postcards from Jenny Holzer’s Survival series Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors Less provocative art greeted me at the Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors home in Tarrytown. A Lise Temple landscape above a black console perfectly echoes the colors of the entry wallpaper, Nympheus – Multi by G P & J Baker, featuring egrets and lotus leaves. Red-cushioned chairs and a blue-and-red rug pick up the wallpaper colors too. Off the entry, you step into a library with cobalt chairs, dark ceiling and walls, and a Dall sheep taxidermy. Texans love taxidermy in their decor. I saw more on a Lockhart homes tour last Christmas. It’s a gracious room, comfortable and traditional without being stuffy. I could see reading in here for hours. Or having cocktails with friends. In the powder bath, Peace and Music wallpaper by Mind the Gap sets a vibrant scene. A bouquet of orange protea flowers makes a perfect accent. A show-stopping display of flowers was in the dining room. Under a crystal-dripping chandelier, dozens of tulips, orchids, and calla lilies filled blue-and-white vases running the length of the table. It was a vision of spring — or the hothouse — in January. A sweet French-pleated cafe curtain with blue flowers was one of my favorite moments. A fanciful fruit bowl echoes the texture and gloss of the kitchen’s lattice backsplash tile. In a hall bath, I loved this wallpaper with geranium leaves and trim painted deep green to match. Blue Dog art adds a playful dash of blue. The wallpaper is Geranium by Cole & Son. A green door even! Great combo. Pretty bowls and trays accent the counter. Stay tuned for Part 3 of the Tribeza tour, featuring the final 5 houses. To read Part 1, click here. I welcome your comments.

In a hall bath, I loved this wallpaper with geranium leaves and trim painted deep green to match. Blue Dog art adds a playful dash of blue. The wallpaper is Geranium by Cole & Son. A green door even!

February 02, 2025 Flora-and-fauna wallpaper with painted trim to match. Fabulous geometric floor tile. A rich use of color and pattern. I’m a maximalist at heart and have a weakness for these bold design moves. You’ll see lots of them in today’s post — part 2 of my coverage of the 10th annual Tribeza Interiors Tour, a tour of Austin homes that shows off the work of interior designers. (Here’s part 1 if you want to start there.) Let’s go! Lindsey Hanna Design I could barely tear myself away from the mystical mudroom in the Lindsey Hanna Design home. First off, I adore the Scissortail wallpaper (in sepia) by Counterpart Studios, designed in collaboration with Austin’s chainstitching queens at Fort Lonesome. (For more Fort Lonesome wallpaper, check out this home from the 2023 Tribeza tour.) Sage green paint on the trim picks up the color in the moon spots and flowers’ eyes. It coordinates with the Soci Aura floor tile, whose starry design adds to the romantic nightscape of the Scissortail paper. Thanks, Lindsey Hanna team, for providing spec sheets in your rooms — so helpful! Maybe add paint colors too next time? I’m greedy. In the powder bath, terracotta wall tile warms up the space. The color and geometry of it, with a geometric mirror to match — so good! A Lostine punched-leather pendant adds a tactile, hand-crafted accent. Here’s the spec sheet. In the primary bath, a matte brown concrete tub melted my indifference to showpiece bathtubs. I always suspect those fancy stand-alone bathtubs are rarely filled. And yet they take up so much space for a symbolic (aspirational?) gesture at leisure time or self-care. I dislike a tub even more when it’s shoehorned into a dim shower stall. Who wants to soak in one of those? Here, however, the tub is a tactile work of art. I could get behind a tub this beautiful. Dandelion ceramic floor tile in brown and terracotta set everything off to perfection. Aha, the wall color is provided in this spec sheet — nice! In the girls’ bathroom, Louise Jones’s Stellar Blush wallpaper, available from Supply Showroom, livens the walls. Australian plant lovers, this one is for you. Louise Jones describes the botanically inspired design: “[T]he distinct star-like flower of the blue devil (Eryngium pinnatifidum) shines amongst a beautiful mass of gum leaves, kangarooo paw and acacia blossoms.” G’day, mate! But it was the floor tile that stole my heart: a terracotta star-and-cross by Zia Tile. Love, love, love. The spec sheet Yet another bathroom features teal oval shower tiles with terracotta grout, a terracotta-tile shower floor, and Tropicana Rucksack Green floor tiles from Clay Imports. A fun use of color and pattern! I spotted this snake vase on the dining table on the way out and suspect it’s the work of Austin’s monster-making ceramist Rick Van Dyke. In the entry, fluted paneling and checkerboard floor tile from Clay Imports set off a burl veneer console and mosaic mirror. West Chelsea Contemporary homeowner A sapphire blue Chevy Chevelle and vibrant mural-style wall art greeted visitors at the West Chelsea Contemporary owner’s home in Bryker Woods. The back garden grabbed my attention first, and I explored. Blocks of cut stone lead to a patio under a steel-pipe pergola, enclosed by a living wall for privacy. A Chinese warrior statue wearing a string of beads stands guard. You can see it’s going to be eclectic. A sunburst-patterned table provides outdoor dining space. A few steps down, a sunken patio with fire pit provides another seating area. Look at the vibrant color on the oakleaf hydrangea in the foreground. Inside, it was art, art, art, as befits the owner of a huge contemporary art gallery. The mountain scene is Cleon Peterson’s The Reflection. Another wall features Aboudia’s Les Enfants D’Abidjan Rouge-Orange. A Kiss stool by Barbara Kruger stands nearby. Roby Dwi Antono’s surreal Mystique Moonlight Lamp Dire warnings in framed wooden postcards from Jenny Holzer’s Survival series Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors Less provocative art greeted me at the Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors home in Tarrytown. A Lise Temple landscape above a black console perfectly echoes the colors of the entry wallpaper, Nympheus – Multi by G P & J Baker, featuring egrets and lotus leaves. Red-cushioned chairs and a blue-and-red rug pick up the wallpaper colors too. Off the entry, you step into a library with cobalt chairs, dark ceiling and walls, and a Dall sheep taxidermy. Texans love taxidermy in their decor. I saw more on a Lockhart homes tour last Christmas. It’s a gracious room, comfortable and traditional without being stuffy. I could see reading in here for hours. Or having cocktails with friends. In the powder bath, Peace and Music wallpaper by Mind the Gap sets a vibrant scene. A bouquet of orange protea flowers makes a perfect accent. A show-stopping display of flowers was in the dining room. Under a crystal-dripping chandelier, dozens of tulips, orchids, and calla lilies filled blue-and-white vases running the length of the table. It was a vision of spring — or the hothouse — in January. A sweet French-pleated cafe curtain with blue flowers was one of my favorite moments. A fanciful fruit bowl echoes the texture and gloss of the kitchen’s lattice backsplash tile.

A Chinese warrior statue wearing a string of beads stands guard. You can see it’s going to be eclectic. A sunburst-patterned table provides outdoor dining space. A few steps down, a sunken patio with fire pit provides another seating area. Look at the vibrant color on the oakleaf hydrangea in the foreground. Inside, it was art, art, art, as befits the owner of a huge contemporary art gallery. The mountain scene is Cleon Peterson’s The Reflection. Another wall features Aboudia’s Les Enfants D’Abidjan Rouge-Orange. A Kiss stool by Barbara Kruger stands nearby. Roby Dwi Antono’s surreal Mystique Moonlight Lamp Dire warnings in framed wooden postcards from Jenny Holzer’s Survival series Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors Less provocative art greeted me at the Lizzie Pincoffs Interiors home in Tarrytown. A Lise Temple landscape above a black console perfectly echoes the colors of the entry wallpaper, Nympheus – Multi by G P & J Baker, featuring egrets and lotus leaves. Red-cushioned chairs and a blue-and-red rug pick up the wallpaper colors too. Off the entry, you step into a library with cobalt chairs, dark ceiling and walls, and a Dall sheep taxidermy. Texans love taxidermy in their decor. I saw more on a Lockhart homes tour last Christmas. It’s a gracious room, comfortable and traditional without being stuffy. I could see reading in here for hours. Or having cocktails with friends. In the powder bath, Peace and Music wallpaper by Mind the Gap sets a vibrant scene. A bouquet of orange protea flowers makes a perfect accent. A show-stopping display of flowers was in the dining room. Under a crystal-dripping chandelier, dozens of tulips, orchids, and calla lilies filled blue-and-white vases running the length of the table. It was a vision of spring — or the hothouse — in January. A sweet French-pleated cafe curtain with blue flowers was one of my favorite moments. A fanciful fruit bowl echoes the texture and gloss of the kitchen’s lattice backsplash tile. In a hall bath, I loved this wallpaper with geranium leaves and trim painted deep green to match. Blue Dog art adds a playful dash of blue. The wallpaper is Geranium by Cole & Son. A green door even! Great combo. Pretty bowls and trays accent the counter. Stay tuned for Part 3 of the Tribeza tour, featuring the final 5 houses. To read Part 1, click here. I welcome your comments.

February 02, 2025 Flora-and-fauna wallpaper with painted trim to match. Fabulous geometric floor tile. A rich use of color and pattern. I’m a maximalist at heart and have a weakness for these bold design moves. You’ll see lots of them in today’s post — part 2 of my coverage of the 10th annual Tribeza Interiors Tour, a tour of Austin homes that shows off the work of interior designers. (Here’s part 1 if you want to start there.) Let’s go! Lindsey Hanna Design I could barely tear myself away from the mystical mudroom in the Lindsey Hanna Design home. First off, I adore the Scissortail wallpaper (in sepia) by Counterpart Studios, designed in collaboration with Austin’s chainstitching queens at Fort Lonesome. (For more Fort Lonesome wallpaper, check out this home from the 2023 Tribeza tour.) Sage green paint on the trim picks up the color in the moon spots and flowers’ eyes. It coordinates with the Soci Aura floor tile, whose starry design adds to the romantic nightscape of the Scissortail paper. Thanks, Lindsey Hanna team, for providing spec sheets in your rooms — so helpful! Maybe add paint colors too next time? I’m greedy. In the powder bath, terracotta wall tile warms up the space. The color and geometry of it, with a geometric mirror to match — so good! A Lostine punched-leather pendant adds a tactile, hand-crafted accent. Here’s the spec sheet. In the primary bath, a matte brown concrete tub melted my indifference to showpiece bathtubs. I always suspect those fancy stand-alone bathtubs are rarely filled. And yet they take up so much space for a symbolic (aspirational?) gesture at leisure time or self-care. I dislike a tub even more when it’s shoehorned into a dim shower stall. Who wants to soak in one of those? Here, however, the tub is a tactile work of art. I could get behind a tub this beautiful. Dandelion ceramic floor tile in brown and terracotta set everything off to perfection. Aha, the wall color is provided in this spec sheet — nice! In the girls’ bathroom, Louise Jones’s Stellar Blush wallpaper, available from Supply Showroom, livens the walls. Australian plant lovers, this one is for you. Louise Jones describes the botanically inspired design: “[T]he distinct star-like flower of the blue devil (Eryngium pinnatifidum) shines amongst a beautiful mass of gum leaves, kangarooo paw and acacia blossoms.” G’day, mate! But it was the floor tile that stole my heart: a terracotta star-and-cross by Zia Tile. Love, love, love. The spec sheet Yet another bathroom features teal oval shower tiles with terracotta grout, a terracotta-tile shower floor, and Tropicana Rucksack Green floor tiles from Clay Imports. A fun use of color and pattern! I spotted this snake vase on the dining table on the way out and suspect it’s the work of Austin’s monster-making ceramist Rick Van Dyke. In the entry, fluted paneling and checkerboard floor tile from Clay Imports set off a burl veneer console and mosaic mirror.

Choosing the Perfect Dining Table Set for Your Home
A dining table set is more than just a place to eat; it's a central element in your home that combines function and style. Whether you're hosting family meals or entertaining guests, the right dining set can elevate the ambiance of your space. With so many styles, sizes, and materials to choose from, it’s important to consider various factors before making a decision.
1. Understanding Your Space
Before purchasing a dining table set, assess the size of your dining area. Measure the space to ensure the table will fit comfortably, leaving enough room for people to move around. For smaller spaces, consider round or oval tables, which can save space while still accommodating guests. Larger rooms can handle rectangular or square tables, allowing for ample seating.
It's also crucial to take into account the shape and layout of your room. For instance, a long rectangular table is perfect for narrow spaces, while a round table works well in a square room. If you're opting for a table with extensions, ensure that it can expand comfortably without overcrowding the room.
2. Choosing the Right Material
Dining tables come in a variety of materials, each offering unique aesthetic and practical benefits. The most common materials include:
Wood: Timeless and durable, wooden tables are perfect for traditional or rustic settings. They come in various types, including oak, walnut, and mahogany, and can be stained or painted to suit different decors. Wood is ideal for larger families and those who want a sturdy, long-lasting table.
Glass: Glass dining tables add a touch of elegance and modernity. They’re visually lighter, making them a good choice for smaller spaces. Glass also complements metal or wooden bases, creating a clean and contemporary look. However, glass tables require regular cleaning and care to maintain their shine.
Metal: Metal tables, often paired with glass or wood, can add a sleek, industrial vibe to your dining space. They are strong and easy to maintain, though they can be less comfortable in colder climates.
Marble: Marble tables are luxurious and sophisticated, making them a statement piece in any dining area. They are durable and heat-resistant but require proper care to avoid stains and scratches.
3. Style Considerations
Your dining table set should match the overall theme of your home. Consider the style of your kitchen or living room and choose a set that complements it. Common dining table styles include:
Traditional: Traditional dining tables typically feature ornate details and rich wood finishes. These tables create a warm, classic look that suits formal dining rooms or country-style homes.
Modern: Modern dining sets are characterized by sleek lines, minimalism, and a mix of materials. A modern table might feature clean wooden surfaces or even a metal and glass combination.
Industrial: Industrial-style dining sets often use raw materials like reclaimed wood, metal, and concrete. These tables add a rustic and edgy vibe, perfect for urban lofts or modern farmhouse designs.
Farmhouse: A farmhouse-style dining table combines rustic charm with modern comfort. These tables are usually made of wood with distressed finishes, making them ideal for cozy, casual dining spaces.
4. Choosing the Right Chairs
The chairs that accompany your dining table are just as important as the table itself. They should be comfortable and match the table’s style. When selecting chairs, consider the following:
Material: If you’ve chosen a wooden table, wooden chairs can create a cohesive look. Alternatively, pairing a wooden table with upholstered chairs can add comfort and contrast.
Comfort: Since dining tables are used for extended periods, comfort should be a priority. Chairs with padding and ergonomic designs will ensure that everyone can sit comfortably during meals.
Space: Make sure there’s enough space between the chairs and the table, allowing for easy movement. If your table is extendable, choose chairs that can easily be moved or stored.
5. Budget and Quality
Dining table sets come in a wide range of prices, depending on the material, craftsmanship, and brand. Setting a budget will help narrow down your choices. However, remember that a dining set is a long-term investment. It’s often worth spending a little more for quality materials and construction that will last for years.
Conclusion
A dining table set is more than just a piece of furniture; it’s an integral part of your home’s style and function. By considering factors like space, material, style, and budget, you can find the perfect dining table set that suits your needs and enhances your living space. Whether you prefer a rustic wooden table or a sleek modern design, there’s a dining set out there that will transform your home into a place of comfort and style.

Five favourite designs by Bieke Casteleyn
I have a confession to make….I am a bit tired of my self designed metal table. Did I once liked really brutal and industrial furniture, I am looking for a table that adds some more warmth into my interior. If you look up the term industrial on the blog, you see a shift from really all things black and concrete in earlier blog years to a less raw and more design approached industrial feeling. At the moment we see a lot of tables in ceramic and stone and I think this might be a good compromise maybe for my own home. I am aware that the shape of a table is really personal, as a lover of sculptural design I am not sure if a really organic shaped table will do the trick for me.
Bieke Casteleyn
Looking into other shapes, still considering a round table as well, I came across the design of Bieke Casteleyn. Bieke Casteleyn is Belgian designer of high-end interiors and refined furniture. Driven by a passion to create a dining table that challenges traditional standards, Bieke debuted her first Out of Line table in 2015. With its skillfully designed, organic contours, Out of Line soon became an icon of Belgian refinement and craftsmanship. One that has been translated into a carefully considered collection of functional objects: dining tables, coffee tables, desks, consoles, benches and more. I especially loved seeing the layered design pieces, next to the different shaped tables. I could easily see some of the designs in my home. Have a look at my top 3 from the series, and visit the website to explore the full Out of Line collection and discover the different colours available.
A beautiful bench that can be used in every space, from a dining room to the hallway. I can really see this bench as a statement piece in our homes.
A bedside table like this would really transform my whole bedroom.
The Out of Line shelf creates a standout look, while the blend of materials breathes warmth into any room. The hidden drawer add a surprising element of functionality.
