dining space

for my dining space, I chose to do a circular room with three doors leading into it.  I wanted to make it circular to emphasize unity and a connection between the people who use the area. I also wanted to create a very intimate setting, and chose to use a circular table that had a circular booth-like seating around it.  the seats begin apart around the border of the room, but once everyone is seated they join around the table.  this will be a unique experience that will create a sense of unity and interrelationship between the people.


above the table, there will be a raised, circular skylight that will move up as the chairs come together.  this skylight will mirror the table, and emphasize the presence of a circle in the space.
