One interesting observation I made here in DH is that teens and kids enjoy higher seating while adults rarely seem to. Our taller chairs with corresponding tall tables when centrally located in our central area almost never seated adults, while teens loved them.

So of course, we moved them to the teen area. 

Good luck in your efforts.
