We felt we didn't need a formal dining room so we made it an extension of the living room. Our house is shaped like an L so we put a sleeper sofa, and a couple of easy chairs in this area. The other part of the L is our tv area. In addition we put a solar light in the area to lighten it up as there are no windows in that part of the house. Works for us.
