How To Choose A Dining Table: Size, Shape & More

by RJ Living | May 7, 2021

From sharing meals with family to having friends over for a dinner party, our dining spaces are witness to many happy memories over the years. Choosing the right dining table that fits your style and needs lets you create the best room to utilize for you and your family.

In our guide to choosing the perfect dining table for you, we explore sizing, shapes, and the many factors involved in getting the right dining table. Scroll through and be inspired!

Narrow down your dining room style

dining room style

One of the anchors of a dining space that works is its design. Always consider the overall design of your dining space. Do you have a specific colour or theme in mind? Which space will it go in, is it for a formal dining room or a casual breakfast nook? Just like a puzzle, it has to be the best piece of furniture for your needs and aesthetics. Let’s explore some popular dining table styles:

Industrial style dining table - If you enjoy the look of wood and metal together, then an industrial theme might be the best bet for you. Industrial style furniture dining tables are usually made of metal bases and wooden tops in a modern but rustic look. Expect to see wood grains, reclaimed wood, and natural features that highlight an organic look.

Scandinavian/Danish style dining table - This style of dining table is both practical and functional. Taking on the design elements of Scandi design in its simple, minimalist, and bright styles, Scandi dining tables are usually in light oak or white and showcase clean lines.

Modern dining table - Get the contemporary look with modern dining tables that will elevate your dining room. Featuring stark lines and sleek edges, these tables also highlight the best natural materials possible like Solid wood in oak. Modern dining tables also focus on the durability and timelessness of both material and design.

Choosing a dining table shape

When you’ve chosen down the style of your room, another step in choosing a dining room table is its use. Aside from mealtimes, will the whole dining area be for formal dinners or in a wide-open space near the kitchen? Placement and size of the room matters in choosing the right table for your home.

Round - round dining room tables are exceptional for smaller spaces. The rounded curves make it more compact plus it looks great in any type of interior style. They also make gatherings more intimate as everyone can easily converse with one another. However round dining tables aren’t best for larger gatherings as the shape can feel like you’re far away, and it’s harder to reach all your scrumptious food!

Oval - create an interesting look with an oval-shaped dining table. With its curved edges, it creates the illusion that it occupies less space, it also has a more traditional look than its round counterpart. This type of shape also gives a sense of intimacy, plus it can seat large groups of people.

Square - A square fitting inside a square, these dining tables look best in square-shaped rooms establishing a sense of symmetry. Usually seating up to 4 people, expandable versions can seat more guests. Also creating a sense of closeness, everyone at the table is within close proximity of conversation.

For larger groups, try setting up 2 square tables next to each other to make a bigger seating arrangement for guests during special occasions.

Rectangle - These dining tables are the most popular since most dining rooms are rectangular in shape. Exceptional for larger families and guests, this is best for those who like to entertain. Its linear shape makes it easy to have an extra leaf for more people and allows for easy navigation around the table. If possible, rectangular tables should be 91cm to 107cm across to ensure enough room for place settings on both sides of the table.

Always take into consideration that with rectangular dining tables and chairs added, it may take up a lot of room in your space. For a space-saving tip, use benches instead of dining chairs on one side of the table, which can easily be stowed underneath.

Standard dining table measurements

dining table size guide

Choosing a dining table isn’t just about the size and shape, measurements ultimately matter as this will determine how your dining room will and your dining table will be utilised. It’s also important in the overall design and flow of the space. How big will the area be? Do you need a dining table size 8 seater? Dining table size for 6 seater? How many people will sit? Do you plan to entertain often?

Do keep in mind that in order to eat comfortably, a person must be spaced at about 61cm away from each other and that there should be enough table area for food and your gorgeous dinnerware collection.

Aside from measuring the room, when you’re settling on a dining table, consider these fundamental measurements:

Table Shape Table Size Seating Capacity
Round or Square Table 122 cm 4 seater
152 - 183 cm 6 seater
137 - 183 cm 8 seater
Oval or Rectangular Table 122 cm 4 seater
150 - 180 cm 6 seater
140 - 200 cm 8 seater
220 - 260 cm 10 seater

 

More tips in choosing a dining table size:

  • Ideally, there should be 91 cm of table area to accommodate food and place settings.
  • Create ample space to pull out chairs, sit comfortably and not feel too stuffy. Give at least 107 cm between the table edges and the wall.
  • Always consider the whole room, especially other furniture in the space like sideboards and dining chairs. If you have a sideboard against a wall, measure 92 cm from that piece of furniture.
  • An extension table is the key for a growing family or simply if you like to entertain. Always measure the table when it’s extended to make sure it fits your dining room.

Choose dining table by height

dining table height guide

There are many dining table designs and shapes to choose from, however standard dining table height is pretty much the same across. Dining table height is important as people need to be able to sit comfortably and cross their legs. When a table is too tall, it gets uncomfortable to eat! The rule of thumb is that there should be at least 31 cm between the tabletop and the chair.

Standard: Standard height tables are about 73 cm to 78 cm high. This table is best paired with chairs that have seat heights of 44 to 48 cm. The standard height can work well with family and guests of different ages and mobility.

Counter: Counter-height tables are about 86 cm to 91 cm high and are best be used with chairs that have seat heights of 61 cm to 66 cm. Creating a more open look, this height works well in smaller spaces.

The right dining table materials and finishings for your style

dining table material

You’ve chosen your style and figured out the measurements and size you need. For the fun part, we’ll take you through the many materials used for dining tables that’ll showcase your style and give you the dining space you’ve been wanting.

Solid Wood Dining Table - a classic option, solid wood is timeless and sturdy. Often creating a welcoming atmosphere, solid wood can be transformed into many styles and grain patterns. Solid Oak furniture is built to last. Choose a piece that will go over many interior styles for a truly perennial favourite. In maintaining a solid wood dining table’s coating and avoiding water stains, always check with the manufacturer or clean it with a mixture of vinegar, oil-water and a clean, soft cloth.

Glass Dining Table - A lot easier to maintain, cleaning glass is easy as pie, while also creating an elegant and open concept home. Giving a room the illusion of more space and light, glass works well with modern elements like stainless steel and brass.

Stone Dining Table - adding a dose of luxury and flair in a space, stones like granite and marble are a natural and classic option for a dining table. They’re durable and can withstand much use both indoors and outdoors. Although scratches may occur over time, some people think that it adds character to the piece. Stone tabletops are quite heavy and can work with smaller spaces.

Concrete Dining Table - a very durable surface material, concrete dining tables are easy to maintain and offer a modern yet rustic look to a space. Concrete dining tables often have a raw look so if you’re looking for something very polished, concrete adds more textures in the look and feel.

Veneer Dining Table - A durable and less porous surface for a dining table, Veneer dining tables have a covering that appears like solid wood, and is glued to particleboard or fiberboard. This type of material is very durable and its surface reacts better to spills and messes. It’s also considered to be environmentally friendly as thinner sheets of a log are used.

Where we have your express or implied consent, or where we are otherwise permitted by law, we may use your personal information to send you information about products and services we believe are suited to you and your interests or we may invite you to attend special events.

At any time, you may opt out of receiving direct marketing communications from us. Unless you opt out, your consent to receive direct marketing communications from us and to the handling of your personal information as detailed above, will continue. You can opt out by following the unsubscribe instructions included in the relevant marketing communication, or by contacting us in writing at support@rjliving.com.au.

We may disclose your personal information to third party recipients located in or outside of Australia in order to provide our website, products and services to you.

9. RJ Living website


When transmitting personal information from your computer to our website, you must keep in mind that the transmission of information over the Internet is not always completely secure or error-free. Other than liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, we will not be liable in any way in relation to any breach of security or any unintended loss or disclosure of that information.

Our website may use 'cookies' or other similar tracking technologies on our website that help us track your website usage and remember your preferences. Cookies are small files that store information on your computer, TV, mobile phone or other device. They enable the entity that put the cookie on your device to recognise you across different websites, services, devices and/or browsing sessions. You can disable cookies through your internet browser but if you do so, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of our website.

 

10. Security


We may hold your personal information in either electronic or hard copy. We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss, as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure and we use a number of physical, administrative, personnel and technical measures to protect your personal information. For example, our website uses password protection services to protect your personal information.

However, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal information transmitted over the internet and therefore you disclose information to us at your own risk. We will not be liable for any unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, or misuse of your personal information.
