We help you visualize your wood dining table space.

The dining table is a piece of furniture that is rarely used just as an eating surface, it has become a place to work, a place to gather and reconnect or to engage in family activities like arts and crafts with your little ones. Needless to say, it pays to choose the perfect dining table for your home, as it's a great investment.

We help you visualize your dining space

Start by measuring the length and width of the area you are going to dedicate to the dining space. Next, think about how you are going to use the table. Think that the space for each diner should be approximately 65 cm, space that we also count on for the chair. The distance between the edge of your dining table set and the wall, or any other piece of furniture, should be around 90 cm. This will allow you to have enough room to move your chair and have room to walk around the table.

Here are some dining table options for your space.

Which one is better?

It all depends on the use you want to give it. Here are some ideas according to its shape:

Ideally, a rectangular table should be between 90 and 110 cm wide. Narrower rectangles may work well in a narrow room, but if the table is narrower than 90 cm, you may find it difficult to place cutlery on both sides and have enough room to place the food on the table. If you prefer to have a narrow table, you may want to consider placing the food on a sideboard or buffet table, so that guests can help themselves before being seated. 

On the other hand, a rectangular rectangular dining table but with rounded edges and corners, without the need to be oval, visually appears to take up less space than a rectangle because of the rounded corners. You may want to consider such a table if you have a narrower or smaller room and, on occasion, you may need to seat more people.

SquareSquare rooms look best with a square dining table. square dining table. Square dining tables are also a good solution if you don't have a large group to sit most of the time. A square extendable table is also a good option for those times when you will need to accommodate more guests.

One benefit of having square tables is that they provide privacy and a satisfying solution for seating a small number of people. It can be off-putting to have a large rectangular table if there are only two or three people present for most of your meals; a larger table can make the space seem cold.

RoundThe square table is not the only solution for a smaller or square-shaped room. A round dining table is another possibility, and is one of the best shapes for smaller gatherings, as everyone can see everyone else, conversations are easier to have and the atmosphere feels more cozy and intimate.

If you prefer a round table to a rectangular one and think you may need to seat a larger number of people from time to time, consider a round extendable table. extendable round table. That way, you can use your dining table most of the time, but extend it when you have company.
