6. Monochromatic Cashmere and Travertine Dining Suites
What This Idea Means
Travertine is the quintessential natural stone for modern warmth. Its creamy, beige-pitted surface brings timeless texture, especially when paired with upholstered dining chairs in cashmere or soft tweed.
How to Style It
- Anchor the dining room with a monolithic travertine slab dining table featuring round fluted pedestal legs.
- Surround the table with minimalist curved dining chairs upholstered in warm taupe or cream fabric.
- Hang a minimalist brushed-brass pendant light directly overhead to pool warm illumination onto the stone tabletop.
Pro Tips & Variations
- The Mixed-Media Variation: Combine a smooth travertine tabletop with a dark smoked-oak pedestal base.
- Pro Tip: Use unhoned, matte-sealed travertine rather than high-gloss polished varieties to preserve an organic, earthy feel.
