Art Deco Dining Room Before & After: AI Redesign Ideas (UK)

A Art Deco dining room before and after takes the dining room you already have — often a heavy table, dim overhead light and underused corners — and reimagines it with deep emerald, navy and black with gold and brass. Upload a photo of your existing dining room to Remodelers UK and you can preview the full Art Deco transformation in around 30 seconds, testing the look, the lacquered timber, fluted glass, marble and polished brass and a new layout before you spend anything on materials or trades.

The Art Deco dining room transformation

The before is a dining room built to eat and entertain, but held back by a heavy table, dim overhead light and underused corners. The Art Deco redesign keeps the bones of the room and changes how it reads: glamorous, bold and richly detailed. Walls, surfaces and the table setting, pendant lighting, sideboard and feature wall are re-styled together so the space feels intentional rather than piecemeal, and the result still looks like your home — just resolved.

In the after, the eye lands on a clear focal point and the clutter falls away. Expect geometric patterns, fluted surfaces and statement lighting, so every surface earns its place and the dining room feels calmer and more considered than the original.

Palette, materials and layout

The Art Deco palette leans on deep emerald, navy and black with gold and brass. Colour is used with restraint, letting one or two tones carry the room while the rest stays quiet — an approach that photographs well and, more importantly, is easy to live with day to day.

Materials do the heavy lifting here: lacquered timber, fluted glass, marble and polished brass. Mixing a few honest textures gives the dining room depth without busyness, and it keeps the scheme feeling current rather than tied to a single passing trend.

On layout, the Art Deco dining room aims for a centred table beneath a statement pendant, a sideboard for storage, and room to move around every chair. Even where the footprint cannot change, re-styling the table setting, pendant lighting, sideboard and feature wall and re-thinking the lighting makes the room feel larger and more comfortable.
