How to choose a dining table

Pull Up a Chair: Let’s Talk Dining Tables

 

Gather your favourite people together and share the good things in life around our Australian made solid timber dining tablesThere is so much to think about when choosing a dining table, from hosting events to everyday use. It often comes down to these few things, the size and shape of the room, the amount of people you need to seat, the shape of the dining table & even the way you choose to style your table.

Below we have listed a few things to consider when purchasing a new dining table or moving your existing dining table into a new space.


Room Size and Layout:

  • Understanding your dining room’s size and layout impacts the choice of dining table. Is the space open plan or does an entry into the space need to be considered? Will windows or doors impact where the table can be positioned?

Seating Capacity:

  • Determine the number of people you want to seat comfortably at your dining table. Consider how often you entertain vs the number of people that will sit at the dining table every day.

Dining Table Shapes:

  • Find the perfect shape that aligns with your style preferences and space constraints. For example, a round dining table softens an angular space, a pill shape will comfortably accommodate extra guests on the end without table legs interfering with human legs

Style and Aesthetics:

  • Gain expert insights from interior designer Kara Demmrich @kyalandkara & @kkhomewares_ on how to style your dining table for festive seasons and special occasions.
