Expert Tips on Choosing the Perfect Dining Table for Your Space | James+James Furniture
Choosing the ideal dining table is an important choice because it is one of the most significant pieces of furniture in any home. Families and friends gather around a dining table to share meals and make enduring memories. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one for your space. But don't worry, we've got you covered!
In this blog post, we'll share our expert tips on how to choose the perfect dining table for your space.
1. Consider the size of your space
Your dining room table should match the size of your room in proportion. A table that is too enormous will overpower the space, while a table that is too little would look out of place. Measure the size of your eating area before you go shopping to make sure the table you choose will fit comfortably in the area. Check out our blog post on table sizing here.
2. Consider your intended purpose for the table
How you want to use your dining table is a further crucial aspect to take into account. Does it provide meals every day or just on certain occasions? Is a fixed size table sufficient or do you need something that can grow to accommodate guests? Consider how the table will fit into your lifestyle
3. Choose a style that complements your decor
Your dining room set should match the design of your interior decoration. If your home has a modern aesthetic, a sleek, minimalist table may be the perfect choice. If you prefer a more traditional look, a farmhouse-style table with turned legs may be more your style. Consider the overall look and feel of your home when selecting a dining table.
4. Pick the appropriate material
There are many different types of materials for dining tables, including wood, metal, glass, and others. Solid hardwood is a great option if you want something strong and long-lasting. It is not only strong and durable, but also a sustainable option. At James+James, we take great satisfaction in using locally sourced hardwoods to manufacture our handcrafted dining tables, including white oak and walnut.
5. Consider customization options
Your dining room table should, in our opinion at James+James, be as distinctive as your house. Because of this, we provide a variety of customization choices, such as table size, shape, and finish. Think about what customization possibilities are significant to you before choosing a dining table.
Choosing the perfect dining table is an important decision, but it doesn't have to be overwhelming. By considering the size of your space, how you'll use the table, the style, material, and customization options, you'll be able to select a table that is both functional and beautiful.
