Choosing the right dining table shape can dramatically affect how your space looks, feels, and functions. In Singapore, where homes range from compact condos to spacious landed properties, it’s essential to choose a table that fits your lifestyle, layout, and design preferences. At Danish Design Co, we offer a wide collection of premium Scandinavian dining tables that combine timeless style with exceptional craftsmanship.
Each dining table shape offers unique benefits depending on the size of your room, how many people you entertain, and your personal style.
Round Dining Tables
Ideal for smaller spaces and more intimate gatherings, round tables encourage conversation and bring a sense of equality to the dining experience. They’re particularly useful in square rooms or open-plan apartments where you want to create a cozy dining nook without sharp corners.
Square Dining Tables
Square tables work well in compact rooms and can help balance proportions in more symmetrical layouts. They’re perfect for groups of 2 to 4 and can make mealtimes feel more relaxed and inclusive.
Rectangular Dining Tables
The most traditional and versatile option, rectangular tables are ideal for long or narrow dining rooms, or for homeowners who entertain regularly. They can seat larger groups comfortably and suit both formal and casual occasions. Many of the rectangular dining tables at Danish Design Co are available in extendable versions, allowing you to seat extra guests with ease when needed.
Oval Dining Tables
Oval tables offer the same seating capacity as rectangular options but with softer curves, making them a great choice for homes with a more organic or modern interior style. Their rounded edges also improve flow in tighter spaces, especially when placed in open-concept living-dining areas.
Tips for Choosing the Right Dining Table in Singapore
To ensure you make the most practical and stylish choice, here are some key factors to consider:
- Measure your space: Leave at least 90cm clearance around the table for easy movement
- Think about daily use vs entertaining: If you host often, consider an extendable dining table
- Pay attention to base design: Tables with pedestal bases or slim legs can increase seating flexibility
- Test the seating arrangement: Ensure there’s no issue with knee or elbow space at every seat
- Consider light flow and material: In small spaces, light wood or glass tops help create an airy feel
