This dining room has all of the elements that we love: a rectangular dining table with beautiful, visible woodgrain; industrial pendant lamps; white mid-century upholstered chairs; bold artwork and simple, spare accessories. So why would it be impossible for us to live in?

Well, it's tiny. Not in a bang-your-shins kind of way, but in a lilliputian kind of way. The dining room is a set in Altera's Mini World, a modern dollhouse blog. Now if we could only create a full-scale version for the same price!

i was gonna ask where those chairs are from! i like

those chairs are actually real designs copied to mini-sized versions. Those chairs are called the Organic Chair by Vitra. They are great but they cost quite a bit of money

you got me good xD!

best. room. ever!

thanks wampler- don't know how i hadn't seen that chair before! it's sweet, but so expensive!

i had the feeling they were miniatures from the background which looked like shelf partitions. i love the lamps! are those miniatures of actual lamps, too?

I instantly knew it was in miniature - I have that exact same miniature lamp! Love the chic dollhouse posts :)

LOL - I was about to ask for a source for the pendant lamps. :-)

Pure madness, I tell ya.

Those chairs are TDF.
