A round dining table is sleek, stylish, and great for small spaces. Make your mealtime more comfortable, intimate and keep the conversation flowing with a round dining table.
Whether you have a small dining nook, or a spacious open plan area, we’ve pulled together the reasons why we love round dining tables. Let’s dive deeper into the benefits of a round dining table, and provide insight into why it is the best shape for any living or dining area. Read on to shop our eight best picks for circular dining tables in Australia.
Advantages of a round dining table
Establishes flow
With a circular piece of furniture, you’re automatically giving your space a sense of flow. A round dining table allows easy circulation of a room, and creates movement that is both casual and intimate.
And while the rigidity of a rectangular or square table is foregone, round dining tables still possess the ability to become formal if necessary.
Creates an intimate feel
One of the main benefits of a round dining table is less about the style and more about how it’s actually used. Because everyone is seated at an equal distance from each other at a circular table, there is more chance for flowing conversation.
Creating intimacy at a table during a dinner party or family night is much simpler if there is no head of the table. Better yet, playing board games becomes so much easier as well! It’s also easy to squeeze in an extra guest, without having them stuck on a sharp corner.
Works best in small spaces
Again, hard edges and straight lines come into play with space as well. For smaller spaces, or areas where you hope to host more people, having defined edges means that you have defined seating. A round dining table can fit in smaller spaces without the risk of a corner jutting into a wall or pathway.
Plus, circular tables most often come with a singular table leg or base, which creates additional leg room and space under the table.
