How To Determine The Right Shape Dining Table For Your Space

Dining tables come in a wide array of sizes, styles and shapes, but what is best for your home? We've put together a guide to help you decide!

BENEFITS OF SQUARE TABLES:

If your dining room is square, this is a great option to consider. A square table in a square dining room is a good way to achieve symmetry and balance.

For larger gatherings, conside a square extension table that your can add expand into a larger rectangle. 

BENEFITS OF ROUND TABLES:

Round tables are ideal for small dining spaces. Because round tables have a small footprint, they bring a cozy and inviting feel to a room. If you are a family with small children, this is a great option for you because there are no sharp corners and when sitting down for a meal, feeding little ones is easier when you're all closer together. 

BENEFITS OF RECTANGULAR TABLES:

Rectangular tables are maximizing seating capacity. If you have a large family, or host large dinner gatherings, this is the shape for you! When shopping for a new rectangular table, consider benches that fit under the table. This is a great way to seat more people and save space!
