A dining room is a room for eating food. Today as well as adjacent to your kitchen for convenience in serving, although in medieval times it was on an entirely different floor level often. Historically the dining room is furnished with a rather large dining table and a number of dining chairs; the most typical shape is normally rectangular with two armed end chairs and a straight volume of un-armed side chairs across the long sides.In the centre Ages, upper school Britons and other European nobility in castles or large manor houses dined in the great hall. This was a huge multi-function room capable of seating the bulk of the population of the house. The family would sit at the head table on an elevated dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of diminishing rank from them. Furniture in the great hall would tend to be long trestle furniture with benches. The large number of individuals 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 probably also, by the expectations of the right time, unfounded. These rooms had large chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free circulation of air through the numerous door and home window openings.It is true that the owners of such properties began to build up a taste for additional romantic gatherings in smaller 'parlers' or 'privee parlers' off the main hall but this is thought to be due as much to political and interpersonal changes regarding the higher comfort afforded by such rooms. In the first instance, the Black Fatality that ravaged Europe in the 14th Century caused a shortage of labour which had led to a malfunction in the feudal system. Also the spiritual persecutions following a dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII made it unwise to speak freely in front of many people.As time passes, the nobility had taken more of their dishes in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room (or was put into two different rooms). It migrated farther from the fantastic Hall also, often seen via grand ceremonial staircases from the dais in the Great Hall. Eventually eating out in the fantastic Hall became something that was done mainly on special occasions.Toward the start of the 18th Century, a pattern emerged where the women of the house would withdraw after meal from the dining area to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having drinks. The dining room tended to take on a far more masculine tenor as a total consequence.A typical UNITED STATES dining room will include a table with chairs arranged over the sides and ends of the table, and also other pieces of furniture, (often used for saving formal china), as space permits. Often tables in modern kitchen rooms will have a removable leaf to permit for the larger number of people present on those special situations without taking up extra space when not in use. But the "typical" family eating experience reaches a wooden stand or some sort of cooking area, some choose to make their dining rooms convenient by using couches or comfortable seats.In modern American and Canadian homes, the dining room is adjacent to the living room typically, being more and more used limited to formal eating out with guests or on special events. For informal daily meals, most medium size residences and larger will have an area adjacent to the kitchen where table and recliners can be inserted, larger spaces are often known as a dinette while an inferior one is called a breakfast time nook. Smaller properties and condos may have a breakfast time pub instead, often of an different elevation than the regular kitchen counter (either elevated for stools or lowered for chair). If a home lacks a dinette, breakfast nook, or breakfast time bar, then the kitchen or living room will be utilized for day-to-day eating.This was the truth in Britain usually, where the dining area would for many families be utilized only on Sundays, other dishes being consumed in your kitchen.In Australia, the utilization of a dining room is still widespread, yet no essential part of modern home design. For some, it is known as a space to be utilized during formal celebrations or occasions. Smaller homes, comparable to the USA and Canada, use a breakfast table or bar put within the confines of a kitchen or living space for meals.
