A dining area is a available room for eating food. In modern times in most cases adjacent to the kitchen for convenience in serving, although in medieval times it was often on an totally different floor level. Historically the dining room is furnished with a rather large dining table and a number of dining chairs; the most frequent shape is normally rectangular with two armed end chairs and an even variety of un-armed side chairs across the long sides.In the centre Ages, upper course Britons and other Western nobility in castles or large manor properties dined in the fantastic hall. This was a big multi-function room capable of seating the bulk of the population of the homely house. The family would sit at the top table on a raised dais, with all of those other population arrayed in order of diminishing rank from them. Furniture in the fantastic hall would tend to be long trestle dining tables with benches. The utter number of men and women in a Great Hall meant it would probably have had a active, bustling atmosphere.Ideas that it could have been quite smelly and smoky are most likely also, by the requirements of that time period, unfounded. These rooms acquired large chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free stream of air through the numerous door and home window openings.It is true that the owners of such properties began to develop a taste for more intimate gatherings in smaller 'parlers' or 'privee parlers' off the main hall but this is thought to be due just as much to political and cultural changes regarding the increased comfort afforded by such rooms. In the beginning, the Black Fatality that ravaged European countries in the 14th Century caused a lack of labour which had led to a break down in the feudal system. Also the religious persecutions following the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII made it unwise to speak freely before many people.As time passes, the nobility took more of their dishes in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining area (or was split into two split rooms). In addition, it migrated further from the Great Hall, often seen via grand ceremonial staircases from the dais in the fantastic Hall. Eventually dining in the Great Hall became something that was done generally on special situations.Toward the start of the 18th Century, a pattern emerged where the women of the home would withdraw after dinner from the dining area to the pulling room. The gentlemen would stay in the dining area having drinks. The dining room tended to take on a far more masculine tenor as a result.A typical UNITED STATES dining area will include a table with chairs arranged across the attributes and ends of the stand, as well as other furniture pieces, (often used for storing formal china), as space permits. Often dining tables in modern dining rooms will have a removable leaf to allow for the larger number of people present on those special occasions without taking on extra space when not in use. However the "typical" family eating out experience reaches a wooden table or some sort of kitchen area, some choose to make their dinner rooms convenient by using couches or comfortable chairs.In modern Canadian and North american homes, the dining area is typically next to the living room, being significantly used limited to formal dinner with guests or on special occasions. For informal daily foods, most medium size homes and much larger will have a space adjacent to the kitchen where stand and chairs can be put, larger spaces tend to be known as a dinette while a smaller one is named a breakfast time nook. Smaller homes and condos may have a breakfast pub instead, often of a different level than the standard kitchen counter-top (either lifted for stools or reduced for seats). When a home does not have a dinette, breakfast time nook, or breakfast bar, then your kitchen or family room will be utilized for day-to-day eating.This was the truth in Britain typically, where the dining room would for most families be used only on Sundays, other meals being consumed in the kitchen.In Australia, the utilization of a dining room is still prevalent, yet not an essential part of modern home design. For some, it is known as a space to be used during formal get-togethers or occasions. Smaller homes, akin to the Canada and USA, use a breakfast table or bar positioned within the confines of a kitchen or living space for meals.
