Sofa

Your dining space is more than just a spot for meals—it's the heart of your home where stories are shared, laughter rings out, and lifelong memories are made. So, if you're considering a dining room refresh but unsure where to begin, you're in the right place.  

Top Tip

Before shopping, we recommend measuring your dining space. You've heard the saying 'measure twice, cut once'. The same applies here. You want to ensure that each diner has about 60 cm of table width and at least 90 cm of clearance from the table edge to walls or other furniture. Each dining chair should also have at least 20 cm between them to provide ample personal space. 

Exploring Key Materials 

Timeless Timber 

Timber tables are timeless, sturdy, and warm. They offer a natural, homely feel that's perfect for those who favour a traditional or rustic vibe. If you love a timber table, then you'll absolutely love our Ollie Dining Table, crafted from natural oak. It features a smooth, rounded design, comfortably seating six and radiating a warm, inviting atmosphere. 

Marble Magic 

Marble is unbeatable for a touch of sophistication and timeless elegance. The stunning appearance of our Bronte Marble Dining Table, made from high-quality Italian Carrara marble with solid oak legs, makes it a striking centrepiece in any home. 

Consider Concrete 

For something modern and bold, consider concrete. It’s renowned for its durability, easy maintenance, and sleek, minimalist aesthetic. Our Bondi Round Dining Table, with its concrete PU-sealed top and solid timber legs, offers a mix of natural and coastal inspired look.  

Versatile Veneer 

Seeking style and affordability? Consider veneer. Modern veneers are not only stylish but also robust, making them a practical choice for a family dining table. Our Starburst Round Dining Table stands out with its decorative veneer top and solid timber legs. It provides a sturdy support and a cosy, intimate setting for four, ideal for connecting with loved ones. 

Choosing Chairs 

Choosing chairs involves balancing comfort for long dinners and practicality for quick meals. Cushioned chairs are perfect for extended meals, inviting you to linger longer at the table.  

For a sleek, modern, and easy-to-clean option, ideal for family life, consider our Helena Dining Chair with its premium PU upholstery.  

 Consider upholstered chairs in various textures and colours for a touch of luxury and comfort. Timber chairs are super family-friendly, too. They are solid and easy to care for, and they can either match your table or stand out as a bold statement.  

For an upholstered and timber option, our Ollie Dining Chair, crafted from solid oak with fabric upholstery, matches our Ollie tables perfectly and adds character to your dining setup. 

Table Flexibility - Family or Frequent Hosts? 

For those prioritising family-first, opt for a sturdy, rounded, and easy-to-clean design like our Bronte Round Natural Dining Table, crafted from sustainably sourced oak.  

And if you love hosting, consider an extendable table like our Otis Extension Dining Table, which offers the flexibility to accommodate extra guests without cramping your style. 

Choosing your dining table and chairs is about blending practical needs with your personal style. It's about creating a space where meals are not just eaten but enjoyed in comfort.  

Your dining set should reflect your home's feel and accommodate your lifestyle. Whether it's the sleek lines of a contemporary home or the rustic charm of solid wood, it's important your furniture complements your overall decor. 

Keep these tips in mind, tailor your choices, and craft a space that perfectly fits your lifestyle and taste. So, here's to countless joyful meals and gatherings in your beautifully arranged dining space.
