Dining Room TablesConsiderations When Choosing a Farmhouse Dining Table
A farmhouse dining room is all about embracing a communal, family feel. Your dining table will set the scene for gatherings, connections, and joyful feasting. As you set out on your search, there are three major considerations to keep in mind: size, functionality, and style.
What Size is Your Space?
We offer great options for spaces of all sizes, whether you are designing a cozy breakfast nook or grand formal dining room.
Make sure to measure your space, and consider traffic flow. Is a round or rectangular table going to be best? Where are the entrances and exits in your room? What other pieces of furniture do you want to be able to fit, such as a sideboard or buffet? It is important to assess the space before you begin.
What Functionality is Most Important to You?
Regardless of the size of your space, you have to decide what matters to you in a dining room. Do you need added storage? How many people do you want to fit at your table on a regular basis? Could a farmhouse table with a bench seat increase your seating capacity? An extendable dining table can be a great option if you love to host large gatherings and holiday dinners.
What Style is Your Favorite?
Even within the farmhouse décor style, there is a wide range of style options. Most farmhouse dining tables feature weathered wood, distressed details, and practical functionality, but other design elements vary greatly. Some might incorporate farmhouse design in simple and modern spaces, while others prefer rustic charm with more ornate details.
Without further ado, let’s look at six farmhouse dining table options with at least one to appeal to every space and style.
