Meal times are very important in everyday life. In addition to ingesting nutrients to keep our body strong, it is a time for interaction with the other residents of the house. Therefore, this space needs to be comfortable and pleasant. To do this, the first step is to choose the perfect dining table!
Nowadays, the market offers a series of models for the dining room that include different shapes, sizes and materials. Furthermore, considering the decorative effect of the furniture is essential to give personality to the space.
Therefore, we have put together some tips on how to choose a dining table, photos of inspiration and even videos with tutorials for those who want to get their hands dirty and build their own table.

Firstly, it is necessary to study the place where it will be placed, that is, take measurements of the room. This is essential so that you can calculate the right size for the table without it being too tight or appearing much smaller.
The tip is to leave the distance between the chair and the table at 60cm. Furthermore, there should be 90cm left behind the chair so that a person can pass comfortably.
Furthermore, the arrangement of environments and furniture must also be taken into consideration. After all, placing a round table in a corner with a corner may not be the best option. In this case, a German corner or a square table may fit better into the available space.
To better exemplify the different possibilities, we have listed some types of table, they are: small, glass, round, square and rectangular.
Small dining table

Houses and apartments are being built in increasingly smaller spaces. However, if you think you can’t have a dining table due to the few square meters available, you are very wrong!
The best option for small spaces is to opt for planned joinery. With it, you can build the furniture in the exact size you need. Additionally, there are great space optimization techniques.
For example, create a mirrored column on the wall where the table is attached. These features offer a feeling of spaciousness throughout the environment.
Furthermore, another tip is to invest in folding tables. This model is perfect for those who live alone and only receive visitors from time to time. In addition to saving space, it can be transformed into another piece of furniture or decorative item such as a painting, for example.

Glass table

Glass is a material that offers modernity and simplicity at the same time. Therefore, adding it to the decoration will necessarily highlight other features. For example, the chairs or the decoration in the center of the table.
However, it is important to take into account that it is quite fragile on its own. In this section we will discard glass table models that only have a cap that serves to cover another material, such as wood.

Round dining table

Despite being a more laborious format when planning the decoration, the round dining table is a much-requested charm. Among its advantages is that it allows greater interaction between the group.
Furthermore, when it comes to decoration, the chairs used for this type of format are more robust and full-bodied. This allows them to better fill the circumference.
However, to create a comfortable circulation space, it is recommended to have a spacious room. Otherwise, the best recommendation is to bet on the German corner, as we said previously.

Square dining table

The square dining table is perfect for placing indoors and can accommodate up to ten people comfortably.
Although there is the possibility of having a larger table made, it ends up losing its practicality. This is because food placed in the center of the table will be too far away to reach while you are sitting.
As a result, for a functional and comfortable space, the fewer chairs at the square table, the better.

This is the most common model for dining rooms. This is because the rooms are usually rectangular and, therefore, this format follows the structure of the space.
Furthermore, depending on the area, it is possible to place a large number of chairs. Another advantage is that the rectangular shape suits most spaces and can be placed in the center of the room or against a wall.

There are several ways to purchase your dining table. Therefore, everything will depend on the style you want. For example, there are furniture stores that sell ready-made products with standard measurements.
