The Conran Shop's Autumn Dining Window Display

Photography by Will TaylorConran
The Conran Shop are renowned for their creative window displays and this season certainly doesn't buckle the trend. For the autumn season the brand's Head of Visual Merchandising Betsy Smith has delivered an inspired range of different dining room sets that nod to the colour palette of the season. My favourite is tabletop number two, which details rustic, wooden textures, with a hint of gloss mixed in. The burnt orange hues that dominate half of the window display are perfect for the autumnal weather; the dramatic blue in the Miss Haversham inspired scheme compliments this perfectly. Note opulent silver accents, grapes and clusters of well used candles, all of which emphasise the dramatic theme. For me, the main inspiration from their window display is that you should take risks with your dining room: be bold with your colour choices and embrace a variety of textures when creating the tabletop. Don't be afraid to have some fun: mixing in quirkier pieces with your sophisticated serveware and linens will result in a more interesting tabletop. Which of the tables appeal to you?

  5. It is a tough choice but I go for the first table top because I love the yellow hue of the chairs.

  8. i love those bright yellow chairs in the first kitchen curation; the structure remind me a bit of my own dining set, curved backs, but the color is incredible. yellow happens to match my living area perfectly, so, naturally, i am now lusting.

  12. Oh yes! It looks like they are copying your "style"! All very lovely. And I must say that there are many similarities between design in Stockholm in and London. Same with fashion. Friendly, simple, edgy modern!

    Hugs to you Mr. Bright.

  15. Number two, also. I'll probably have a similar look in my new house in a few months. I already have the table, a bit more rustic done with reclaimed wood and for now, I want the same chairs. I really like what's on tabletop and the rug they used.

  20. Love the yellow chairs, but that hanging lamp of the second table is to die for! Plus the deep blue wall color really sets it off perfectly!
