DO YOU STILL NEED A FORMAL DINING ROOM?

A formal dining room is probably the most underutilized space in the home. Most homes have this formal space but not every family regularly hosts large sit-down dinners or holiday gatherings. There really is no reason that your dining room must be used for that singular purpose. If you are considering re-purposing your dining room space into a more useful space for you and your family, here are some ideas to get you started.

Playroom

If you have small children, this could be the perfect room to convert into a playroom. Creating an indoor play area that keeps all the toys and childhood clutter separate from other rooms in the house is a useful alternative for many families. You can use your imagination to design a fun space where children can play in a safe environment.

Media Room / Game Room

The dining room is maybe the perfect place to set up a media center or game room. This could be a room where you can watch movies, play video games, have a game table, and listen to music.

Home Office

Many of us are now working from home and if you need a home office, your dining room could fill that role perfectly. You can convert the space to include a desk as well as your files, computer, and organizational furniture. Depending on the dining room’s position within the home, it can provide a distraction-free environment without cutting you off from family activities.

Schoolwork Station

Just like you work better with a dedicated home office, many children who are new to learning from homework better with a dedicated space for schoolwork. Although they could sit at the kitchen table or a desk in their bedroom, having a space that is solely used for schoolwork can get them in the right mind-set for learning and help them be more productive without distractions.
