English・Dining Room: Dark Walls and Candlelight

An English dining room, with walls painted a saturated dark color—deep green or dark red eggshell finish, including the baseboards and door frames. In the center is a long old wooden dining table, its surface showing scratches and water stains, without a tablecloth. Eight mismatched dining chairs surround it. On the table are real candles in silver candlesticks, bone china dinnerware, glass wine glasses, and a casually arranged vase of flowers. Several dark oil paintings and an old mirror hang on the walls. To one side is a dark old wooden sideboard, displaying silver and porcelain plates. The floor is dark wood with a rug. Lighting consists only of candlelight and two wall sconces with candles, leaving most of the room in darkness. Avoid: using light-colored walls, adding main ceiling lights and bright illumination, making dining chairs perfectly matched, covering the wooden tabletop with a tablecloth.

一間英式餐廳,牆面漆成飽和的深色——深綠或暗紅的蛋殼光漆面,連同踢腳板與門框一起。中央是一張長的舊木餐桌,桌面有刻痕與水漬,不鋪桌巾。八張不成套的餐椅圍著。桌上是銀質燭台上的真蠟燭、骨瓷餐具、玻璃酒杯與一瓶隨意插的花。牆上掛著幾幅深色的油畫與一面舊鏡。一側是深色的老木餐櫃,上面陳列著銀器與瓷盤。地面是深色木地板配一張地毯。照明只有燭光與兩盞牆上的燭台壁燈,房間大部分處在暗中。避免:使用淺色的牆面、加入天花主燈與明亮照明、讓餐椅成套、把餐桌鋪上桌巾遮住木紋。
