We are ready to furnish our formal dining room and need a lot of design advice. Our home does have an eat in kitchen area so this room would be used to host bigger groups of people. We have two young kids and often host other young ones so we want this space to be kid (spill) friendly yet elegant enough to host an adults only meal from time to time. I am attaching measurements and photos of the space.
The first decision we want to make is if we should go with a round table vs. rectangular table. We really like the idea of a large round table, but not sure what size would work in our space while comfortably accommodating 8 adults (with the potential of pulling up 2 more chairs for a total of 10 people - less comfortably). Is that possible given the dimensions of our room? Should we just stick with a rectangle table?
PROA round will likely work better with the shape and function of the space. Often laying out the shapes and sizes can be helpful to see how it will look in the space. Using cardboard, painters tape, blankets, etc can help simulate the table. We often suggest 24" per person for elbow room. Then as far as wall or furniture clearance, a minimum of about 30-36". If you have more room that that, even better. A 70" round will fit 8-10 people. Chairs size and level of individual comfort will impact the space allowed per person, but this size will function well. Feel free to contact us will any questions!
PRORound with a pedestal base it wil always allow for a couple more chairs to squeeze in. Get chairs with no arms and a 60” table would be good in that space it seats 8-10 adults
Coming back to this post as we are ready to move forward! We decided on a 72" round dining table. We looked at a lot of 60" tables in local design rooms and they seemed to barely fit 6-8 adults. I know chair style / size will play heavily into how many we can fit, but I think 72" will give us a lot more wiggle room. I plan to start a new thread for more specific ideas on pieces for our dining room. Thanks so much for the input thus far!
