082 Are dining rooms still necessary?

082 Are dining rooms still necessary?

***Click here for this week's sip!*** Welcome to the latest episode of Tea Over Interiors Podcast. In this episode, we tackle an interesting question: Is the formal dining room necessary? In modern homes, open-plan living spaces have become increasingly popular, leading to less-defined areas for specific uses, such as dining rooms. This has left many people, especially homebuyers and homeowners, questioning whether the formal dining room is still necessary or not. We delve right into the topic by taking a look at the history of the dining room. We learn that the dining room has been an essential part of home design since the Middle Ages. However, back then, it was considered a room for just the wealthy, where they entertained guests and distinguished visitors. Over the years, the room evolved to become common in most middle-class homes, and there was a need to make it more functional. We then move on to discuss the pros and cons of having a formal dining room. Some of the advantages of having a dining room include the ability to host a dinner party, formal dining, and creating an elegant and sophisticated look. On the other hand, some of the cons include the need for more space, reduced functionality, and considerable expense in terms of maintenance and decor. Next, we weigh in on the factors that influence whether the formal dining room is necessary or not. These factors are the size of the home, the lifestyle of the homeowner, the number of guests entertained, and the home's architectural style. We conclude by giving some suggestions on how to make the formal dining room a more practical space such as using it as a multipurpose room, adding storage, and rearranging furniture. Thank you for listening to this episode. Tune in next week for a brand-new episode. Please share this podcast with a friend.

049 How to Create Positive Vibes in Your Space W/ Xena Stryker (Architectbae)

Welcome back to episode 49 of Tea Over Interiors!
Today’s guest is Xena Stryker, commercial architect and owner of Xena marketing + design firm
in Atlanta, Georgia. Listen as she tells her origin storyβ€”from her name to becoming an architect
and business owner.
Then, over tea, Dee, Alicia, and Xena discuss chakra balancing and the way different colors
impact us. Plus, Xena shares her wellness practices.
As an expert in her field, Xena gives some architectural advice, from picking how a space’s
architecture influences its design and how to pick materials based on the architecture of a
space, to possibly the most important of allβ€”how to decide to hire an architect or a general
contractor.
β€œI believe that form follows function. It’s okay for things to be pretty, but they need to have a
function.”
As a millennial in architecture, Xena has been faced with certain challenges working in large
firms. Hear her tactics for getting her work seen, why she started her own business, and her
advice for using professional organizations to leverage your business.
β€œWhen you join these organizations, it’s not just for you to chit chat and network. How is this
going to increase your bottom line?”
