How do you choose a dining table? rectangular, square or round
The dining table can be just like its entire space: multifunctional, versatile and ready for many different tasks.
The dining room is the place where the paths of all members of the household most often cross. Whether we connect it to the living room or dedicate a section of the kitchen to it, the functions of our dining room will change depending on the time of day. It is one of the most versatile interiors in the entire house. Let's match its versatile character with the most important element of the dining room equipment - the table.
Not only will you be eating at the dining table, but you will also be working, hosting friends and family, playing board games or doing homework with the children. The dining table must be able to cope with all our changing needs and at the same time face any possible spatial restrictions in our interiors.
A well-organised dining table
Underneath the top of our dining table can be storage space for cutlery, lights, candles and many other items and accessories that are good to have on hand in the dining nook. The extra, cleverly camouflaged space for our belongings is especially useful in small flats, helping to solve the spatial dilemma: dresser or larger table?
Above all, the elegant Nature table offers plenty of practical storage space. It has as many as six capacious drawers - enough for each member of the family to get their own place for personal treasures. This is because it will comfortably accommodate not only kitchen accessories, but also any other items related to our hobbies, work or favourite leisure activities.
This is not the end of the hiding places offered by this dining table. There is also an alcove running across the entire width of its oak top, finished in pleasant-to-touch and heat-resistant metal. This is the ideal place for platters of hot food, pots of herbs or candles. Depending on the situation, the configuration of the furniture can be easily adjusted to our needs thanks to removable plugs - they can be hidden in the niche, used as a stand for hot dishes or the holes can be covered to create a completely plain top.
Not only the wide arsenal of storage compartments, but even the shape of the tabletop is matched to the multifunctional nature of the dining room. The edges of the Nature table are gently rounded, ensuring that even all-day work at the laptop or long hours of festive feasting will not cause discomfort or strain our forearms and wrists.
A square metre full of functions
The dining table, which facilitates efficient organisation of the space, can also be adapted to very small interiors - for example, if you are planning a studio apartment. This is where the 4 You square dining table comes in.
Although each of its sides is only one metre long, the piece of furniture is perfect for both dining and working from home. This is all thanks to a practical, lockable niche with a cable hole and free space for small items between the two tops. To make it easier to keep things tidy, the matching drawers can be slipped into the recess - each with fronts in two colours, which can be changed according to our needs and design ideas.
For slightly larger interiors, we can invite its twice as big brother, which can accommodate six drawers between the tops, or a folding variant with recesses for four drawers.
Folding dining tables
The dining table can also become a reflection of our lifestyle. If our home is open to frequent visits from friends and family, a spacious extendable table will certainly come in handy. Depending on our needs and available space, we can create a place where up to a dozen people can sit comfortably in a few minutes from a small piece of furniture. The best tables are those that hide all the additional elements directly in their structure, so that you don't have to hide them in cupboards, in the cellar or behind curtains.
The Simple extending table in particular will make it easier to enjoy a meal together. Although its modest, simple silhouette may not seem so at first glance, it is a real piece of furniture for special tasks. When folded, it will fit comfortably even into a small kitchen nook or a living room with a dining area - its dimensions are a mere 140x90 cm. However, it has additional elements and hidden legs which can almost triple the surface area of its top, making room for as many as... 14 people!
However, if we need a more compact solution for our dining room, opt for the round folding table - it can turn from a 4-seater into a 10-seater. Both variants are available in four colours: white, grey, oak and black. We can also place matching Simple chairs with comfortable, contoured seats at each table - easily creating a unified composition or a mix of different matching colours.
Ordinariness in a light form
What if we don't need any extra features at all and want our dining table to be.... simply a table?
The Balance table will help in the search for the simplest solutions. Set on slender, light-coloured legs, it looks extremely light and will fit neatly into minimalist arrangements full of light and free space. Depending on the dimensions of your interior and your own needs, you can choose a variant with a round top or one of the three rectangular table sizes.
The warm shade of the Balance table top can be easily matched with natural wood chairs. The beech Up&Down chairs with height adjustment or the clever Closer model with a comfortable swivel seat, which makes it easy to get up from the table, create a harmonious dining composition.
