A dining room is an area for eating food. Today it is almost always adjacent to the 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 amount of un-armed side chairs over the long sides.In the centre Ages, upper course Britons and other Western european nobility in castles or large manor properties dined in the fantastic hall. This was a sizable multi-function room capable of seating the bulk of the population of the house. The family would sit at the head table on a raised dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of diminishing rank away from them. Tables in the fantastic hall would have a tendency to be long trestle desks with benches. The absolute number of people in a Great Hall meant it would probably experienced a occupied, bustling atmosphere.Recommendations that it could have been quite smelly and smoky are probably also, by the benchmarks of the right time, unfounded. These rooms got large chimneys and high ceilings and there is a free stream of air through the many door and windowpane openings.It is true that the owners of such properties commenced to develop a taste for more seductive gatherings in smaller 'parlers' or 'privee parlers' off the main hall but this is regarded as due as much to politics and cultural changes as to the increased comfort afforded by such rooms. In the first instance, the Black Death that ravaged Europe in the 14th Hundred years caused a shortage of labour and this had resulted in a malfunction in the feudal system. Also the religious persecutions following the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII made it unwise to discuss freely before many people.As time passes, the nobility needed more of their foods in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining area (or was put into two different rooms). It also migrated farther from the fantastic Hall, often accessed via grand ceremonial staircases from the dais in the fantastic Hall. Eventually eating in the fantastic Hall became something that was done mainly on special occasions.Toward the start of the 18th Hundred years, a pattern emerged where the women of the house would withdraw after dinner from the dining area to the pulling room. The gentlemen would remain 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 room will include a table with seats arranged along the edges and ends of the desk, and also other furniture pieces, (often used for stocking formal china), as space permits. Often furniture in modern kitchen rooms will have a detachable leaf to allow for the bigger number of individuals present on those special occasions without taking on extra space when not in use. Although "typical" family eating experience reaches a wooden table or some sort of cooking area, some choose to make their kitchen rooms more comfortable by using couches or comfortable recliners.In modern Canadian and North american homes, the dining area is typically adjacent to the living room, being increasingly used only for formal eating out with friends or on special events. For casual daily meals, most medium size homes and bigger will have an area adjacent to the kitchen where stand and chairs can be set, larger spaces tend to be known as a dinette while a smaller one is called a breakfast nook. Smaller properties and condominiums may instead have a breakfast time club, often of the different height than the standard kitchen counter-top (either raised for stools or lowered for chair). If the home does not have a dinette, breakfast nook, or breakfast time bar, then your family or kitchen room will be utilized for day-to-day eating.This was customarily the situation in Britain, where the dining room would for most families be utilized only on Sundays, other dishes being consumed in your kitchen.In Australia, the use of a dining room is prevalent still, yet no essential part of modern home design. For some, it is considered an area to be used during formal occasions or celebrations. Smaller homes, comparable to the Canada and USA, use a breakfast table or bar located within the confines of a kitchen or living space for meals.
