Lucinda included a combination of delicate and bold motifs in her dining area, as too many patterns of the same size can overpower a room. It's not just the table that's decorated: the entire look is filled with interesting objects that could hail from a French antiques market or Chinese auction house. In terms of colours, the dining room deviates from the rest of the home, serving up soft shades of ochre and red.

In this verdant dining room: the colour white acts as a recurring motif, along with the rattan accessories and botanical prints. The oval-shaped dining table is just the right size for the space.
