How to get the look, step by step
- 1Photograph your dining room in daylight with the widest view you can frame — the RivAI app needs the whole space to work with.
- 2Set the base: Warm White (#F5F2EC) for walls and ceilings.
- 3Allow 60 cm of table width per seat, and 90 cm of clearance between the table edge and walls or furniture.
- 4Bring in performance fabric upholstery and washable cotton and linen covers — the two signature materials of Airbnb design.
- 5Add one statement piece: comfortable neutral sofa with washable cover.
- 6Finish with muted forest (#5F7161) accents in textiles or decor, keeping them under 10% of the visual field.
Key materials
- Performance fabric upholstery
- Washable cotton and linen covers
- Solid or veneer oak furniture
- Low-pile washable rugs
- Matte black metal lighting
Furniture to look for
- Comfortable neutral sofa with washable cover
- Upholstered or wood headboard with layered bedding
- Round coffee table with no sharp corners
- Dining table that seats the maximum guest count
- Full-length mirror for guest photos
Mistakes to avoid
- Buying a table too large for the room, so chairs scrape the walls and serving becomes an obstacle course.
- Hanging the pendant too high, which loses the intimate pool of light that defines dining.
- Choosing a rug too small, so chair legs catch the edge every time someone sits down.
Budget tips
- Refinish or repaint an existing table instead of replacing it - sanding and new stain costs little and looks custom.
- Mix chairs deliberately: keep your current set and add two different host chairs at the ends.
- Swap the light fixture; a new pendant rewires the whole mood of the room for the price of a nice dinner.
FAQ
Does Airbnb work in a dining room?
Yes — Airbnb is one of the best-suited styles for a dining room. Its performance fabric upholstery and warm white base palette fit the way this space is used. Keep the room's function first and let the style come through in finishes and textiles.
What colors should I use for a Airbnb dining room?
The core palette is Warm White #F5F2EC, Greige #B8AEA0, Natural Oak #C9A97E, Muted Forest #5F7161, Soft Black #2F2E2C. Use Warm White as the dominant color, Greige for secondary surfaces, and keep Muted Forest for accents only.
