Transform your kitchen-dining room with a rustic plank table

The kitchen-dining room is often the heart of the home. It's a living space with room for everything from cooking, homework, cosy moments, guests and parties. It's a place for conversation, quality time, socialising or just being together separately. That's why it's essential that the kitchen-dining room is a place that attracts people, and a place where you want to sit down and hang out. 

To achieve this, people often go all out - demolish the old kitchen and build a new one, build an alcove, lay a new floor and raise the ceiling if possible. And all of these things are definitely great initiatives that can bring a lot of good to the space! 

But if you don't want to or can't raise the ceiling... If you're really happy with your kitchen and don't want to change it. If you like the spirit and history of your home and don't want to modernise it. Then a plank table can still be a gift for your home! 

The rustic charm of a plank table brings character and soul to any room. While the abundance of natural materials invites nature in and soothes the soul, the rustic details add edge and personality. Together, this gives the plank table a magnetic effect that draws both body and spirit. It makes you want to sit down here; for dinner, for homework, for a party or for a good game of Yatzy.   

A plank table itself can go a long way. Especially the rustic ones, like the table in this classic 60s villa. 

This table is made of bulwark from decommissioned Danish harbours, and not only do the rustic details in the table top - and especially the table legs - bring edge and character to the home, but they also bring a sense of history and give rise to many admiring glances and conversations - both around and across the table.
