Which one: round or rectangular? Or 4 questions that are worth answering when choosing a table that suits your lifestyle

The problem of choice arises before us constantly and especially acute when it comes to pieces of furniture. The variety of shapes, materials (color palette), manufacturers and conflicting reviews does not make this task easier. And the choice dining table, which would be 100% suitable not only for the style of the interior, but also for the rhythm of your life, this is no exception!

Good afternoon dear friends!

After all, a well-chosen table will invariably become the subject of your pride and add both functionality and comfort to your home, while an unsuitable table will only bring a feeling of disappointment. So, in order to decide which dining table is right for your family - round or rectangular - I prepared 4 questions to answer before buying it.

1.Number of households? Any piece of furniture in your home should be functional and aesthetically harmonious. Moreover, the table! Since you will use it constantly, daily and for different purposes. For example, a round table is ideal for small families of 2-4 people. It will be convenient and comfortable for your relatives, because you will literally have breakfast, lunch and dinner "with your family." A table of this shape is conducive to confidential conversations and thereby brings all family members closer.

But if 5 or more people are constantly gathering at a meal, they can be comfortably placed only at a classic rectangular table.

2.The size of your kitchen or dining room? The question is no less important than the previous one. Since in a confined space and in a small area, a round table will look more advantageous. In addition, moving around a small room, you do not have to constantly bump into sharp corners of the tabletop.

While the large kitchen allows you to use both round and rectangular tables when furnishing it. Here, other nuances come to the fore: interior style, design ideas, etc. solutions (zoning, decorative element, etc ...).

3. Room shape? Draw the layout of your room on paper and think about where you would like to place the dining table. And if there are no other options and the table has to be placed on the aisle (narrow, long room), then it is more convenient to move past the table with round edges. If the shape of the space allows you to move the table directly to the wall, then it is wiser to give preference to the rectangular option.

By the way, another indisputable plus in this case is its functionality, since with the help of a rectangular table, you can separate the dining room from the living room without resorting to other design techniques.

4.Are you a hospitable host? Everything is simple here! If you are a fan of frequent feasts with the participation of 8 or more people, your option is a rectangular table, preferably with the "transformer" function.

A round reception table is possible only in a room of truly enormous size! Judge for yourself: in order to comfortably accommodate 9 people, a table of this shape must be at least 2 meters in diameter.
