The dining room is the epicenter of the Adamik-Churney residence, as this is where most of their entertaining occurs. While open to the other public areas of the apartment, it is at the dining room table that guests spend most of their time. "A comfortable dining chair is important, " declares Adamik. With their wide, upholstered cushions and ample back support, the vintage 1940's French chairs invite guests to linger.
Although the couple had some large pieces of art, the volume of the loft space seemed to dominate. By grouping smaller pieces together, the art gained a collective presence.
Behind the dining table, a Marcel Duchamp lithograph balances out the arrangement due to its double-framed presentation. The walnut inlayed frame was originally from a mirror that Adamik and Churney had hanging in their previous home. It had survived a fall that shattered the original antique silvered glass, and rather than trying to duplicate the effect, the couple opted to give the frame a new purpose.
