Whether your schooldays were the best days of your life or not, there’s a lot to be said for a nostalgic look back. This dining room has a lot of elements that remind me of a vintage schoolhouse. From the dark green paint on the walls, to the industrial style lighting, to the retro chairs. Even the tableware and cast iron radiator shout sturdy utilitarian. And then just when you think this may be a cold, factory-like setting, it’s all warmed up with a plush carpet. Parquet flooring would work just as well, but remember to soften it with a rug. Who’s milk monitor today?
