Here are a few things that will help you make your space stunning and build memories with your loved ones by gathering around the lovely dining table.




1 - Measure Your Dining Space


You might imagine your dining space as being welcoming, fashionable & approachable. So, you must install a dining table based on the dimensions of your dining space to make your dining room feasible for you.



Here are some dining room measurements that may help you choose the appropriate dining table size.


- Choose a 4-seater dining table if your space measures 8 feet long x 6 ft wide

- Choose a 6-seater if your space measures 10 feet long x 6 feet wide

- Choose an 8-seater if your space measures 12 feet long x 8 feet wide



These dimensions will help you find a dining table with the right number of seats for your room without compromising on comfort and functionality.

2 - Pick A Distinctive Dining Room Style


You can define your dining space by choosing as per your unique sense of personal style; this allows you to love the space deeply over time as you will have an emotional connection with it. Out of all styles, Vintage and modern are two styles that can make you fall in love with them.



Vintage Dining:


In vintage style, we predominantly see several wooden dining tables in various tones, allowing us to feel the warmth and royalty.


Vintage makes us think of the past. Like in the saying “Old is Gold," the relevance of dining in a vintage-style establishment is growing rather than waning because the timeless and classic designs of vintage, instantly activate the mood of any space.

Modern dining makes your space look rich and glamorous. This style has marble and glass countertops with simple colour palettes, clean & crisp lines, and a design that exudes a sense of simplicity and elegance in every space.

3 - Select A Standard Material


Once you've chosen a dining table style, the next step is to choose a material that compliments or improves the design of the dining room. A dining table can be made from a variety of materials, some of which include glass, marble, and wood.



Wooden Dining Table:


Wood gives a natural appearance to any dining table (or any tabletop) and enhances the elegance of your dining area. As wood is durable and pleasant to touch, it can be used for multiple purposes. Make sure a wooden dining table is well treated to fire, water, and termite before purchasing.

Marble Dining Table:

Marble, being a natural stone looks aesthetically pleasing When used as your tabletop, it never goes out of style as it acts like a statement piece wherever it is utilised. It is feasible because it serves different purposes, from a small console table, or decorative table to a large buffet table, it can be anything.


Despite having it as one masterpiece, it is also of high maintenance. It is recommended to consider using a table runner that matches your dining table to make it more visibly attractive and protect it from the scratches of the crockery when placed on the table.

Some of the advantages of a glass dining table include ease of cleaning, quick installation, light integration, and sleek appearance.

#4 - Identify The Right Shape For Your Dining Space


It is better if you consider the shape of your dining set and match it with the space of your dining room. This makes it more approachable for its magnificent appearance.


When it comes to narrow spaces lengthwise, it is suggestible to go with oval and rectangle-shaped tables, while round and square ones work better in areas with more width.
