Dining & Kitchen Tables

The dining and kitchen table is a room’s centerpiece in most cases. It isn’t so visible at first sight, because usually, it doesn’t have many details but if you will pay attention to the dining and kitchen design interiors you will notice that this element plays a role of the uniting component. It can be a connecting link between the interior and its furnishings. It is a highly functional piece that can influence your comfort and daily life.

How to choose a kitchen table?

So, it is very important to choose the right model that will fulfill all your requests and still look stylish and appropriate for your dining and kitchen area. To do this you should follow some simple rules about which we will talk about in this article.

The room’s size and how many people will use it.

The table’s size should be chosen according to the room’s measurements and also considering how many people will use it. There is one formula that can help you approximately to count your future table’s measurements. For one person should be 23-inch width and 15-inch depth and still should be remained space for the tableware and other meal supplies. And table’s length is chosen according to your plans on how many people will use it.

The most universal table’s width is between 31-33 inches. Another thing you should consider is that table shouldn’t be wider than 41 inches and less than 31, in the first case it makes the too big distance between the people that interferes with the coziness of your communication with others. And in the second case, it will be no left space for tableware and meal supplies.

Table’s types

Table’s type also is connected with how many people you plan to seat at it. So rectangular table with the measurements 59*35 inches will be a good choice for 4-6 people. It also important how particularly it will be placed in the room.

For less than 8 people will be better to choose a table in the 78*43 inches. With rounded corner models in the 43 inches diameter can be seated 4 people, and with the 51 inches diameter can be seated, 6 people.

Round table

A round table can enhance your space’s appearance and make it more sophisticated. Another benefit is for those who have children: no corners-no possible injuries- no problems. Also, this “no corners” option has another advantage, you can place more people that for example on the square table. Instead of every corner can be another tight but still seat for your guest.

Square table

This table type is one of the most practical ones. Because it helps to economize space that is a perfect benefit for small kitchens. And as well you have variants how to place it: it can be placed in the corner and be a perfect place for two people. But placed in the center of the room it becomes possible to seat there 4 people or even more if it is needed.

Rectangular table

A rectangular table is the most classic and traditional solution for the kitchen or dining area. It too can be placed near the wall or in the room’s center but it accommodates more people than the square one eventually. The extendable models can even accommodate more people when it is needed.

Oval table

Oval tables are one of the most elegant variants for your dining area. This elegantly shaped model will be perfect for a spacious room in the neo-classic style. Oval tables have advantages both of the rectangular table and round one because it can contain many people like the first one and has these gorgeous curves like the second.

Table’s materials

The solid wood material is the most reliable choice because it is strong, durable, and can become even a family’s heritage if it is kept properly. It has also this gorgeous original wood pattern that became its recognizable sign. When you buy a solid wood table you can be sure that it is an investment that will pay off in the future.

MDF is one of the wood’s imitators for those, who are not ready to spend money on the wood. It is considered one of the best because it is made from wood chips and doesn’t contain formaldehyde. It is usually is covered with paint or other materials so the table’s designs come in a wide variety.

Particleboard is the cheapest wood imitator and it is not so strong and durable as wood but also it is not so heavy. It is way cheaper than wood, so can be a good choice for those who have a limited budget.
