01 / DINING ROOM

Dining tables

Start with the seats you use every day. Compare table shape, base position and how much room remains when chairs are pulled out.

Round tables

A pedestal can give chairs more freedom around the edge. Compare a solid base with a visually lighter frame.

Fluted walnut pedestal
Black glass dining table

Rectangular tables

Look at where the legs land, especially if you want to use the ends or tuck in a bench.

Walnut table with tapered legs
White laminate and steel table

Oval and square tables

A rounded end softens the route around a long table. A square top can suit a compact room with similar clearance on all sides.

Different materials, different presence

Compare the visual weight of stone, the colour of painted metal, the grain of timber and the openness of glass.

Long black oak table
Oval glass and metal table

Drop-leaf and extendable tables

Check both footprints. When the table is open, allow room for the extra chairs and a clear route past them.

02 / DINING ROOM

Chairs, benches and banquettes

Think about how often you sit, how long meals tend to last and whether you want seating that can move around the room.

Open and compact chair profiles

Slim backs and open frames keep more of the room visible. Check that arms and seat heights fit your table.

Walnut and leather chair
White moulded chair

Upholstered seating

Compare the feel of velvet, bouclé, leather and linen. Think about texture, cleaning and how the seat feels over a longer meal.

Blue velvet chair
Cream bouclé chair
Saddle leather and steel chair
Olive linen chair

Dining benches

A bench can tuck under a table or sit along a wall. Leave an easy way to get in and out at the ends.

Woven cane bench
Sage-painted bench

Built-in seating and armchairs

A banquette can define a dining nook. Armchairs at the ends can introduce a different material and give those seats more presence.

03 / DINING ROOM

Crockery storage and display

Decide what needs to sit close to the table. Low units can double as serving surfaces, while taller cabinets use more of the wall for storage and display.

Sideboards

Timber grain, woven cane, lacquer and slatted fronts can each connect with a different detail elsewhere in the room.

Walnut sideboard
Sage and cane sideboard
Blue lacquer sideboard
Slatted oak sideboard

Crockery and curio cabinets

Clear glass puts pieces on view, fluted glass softens the display and painted doors keep more out of sight.

Cream painted china cabinet

PLANNING YOUR ROOM

Bring a few favourites

Share a room plan or photos, your everyday and hosting seat counts, and what you’d like to store nearby. A table shape, a seating reference and a storage finish are enough to start exploring how the pieces can work together.
