1. Rectangular dining tables – practical and spacious

Most dining tables are rectangular, and there’s a good reason for that. Rectangular dining tables are practical because you can seat people along the length of the table and also pull up adining chairat both ends.
Even if you work from home a lot, there’s plenty of room for a laptop, and it’s a joy to decorate such a straight tabletop with candles or a beautiful floral arrangement in a vase.
2. Round dining tables – compact and cozy

Do you live in a smaller space, or would you like to place your dining table in the kitchen? If so, a round dining table is a great option. You can fit at least four dining chairs around a round table, which is usually enough for the average family size in the Netherlands.
A round dining table looks homey, cozy, and inviting, especially if you choose a compact model, and it’s an excellent timeless choice.
3. Oval dining tables – for balance

You can’t ignore it—or can you? The oval dining table is currently a very popular choice. Not only does this table look fantastic in a larger space, but it also makes a seemingly small room appear more spacious. The oval ends of the table give it a more airy look than a rectangular table. It appears a bit more open, especially if you choose an oval dining table with an elegant base.
For example, we see that ovaldining tables made of mango woodare often chosen to break up a living space with lots of straight lines and walls. By placing an oval dining table, you can make the dining room feel a bit more playful and balanced.
An oval dining table can easily accommodate several guests or family members, and there’s often enough space left over to decorate it with some nicehome decor.
4. Danish oval dining tables – the best of both worlds

Are you looking to buy an oval dining table but find you’re just short on space at the ends for an extra chair? Then a Danish oval dining table is a great alternative. Danish oval dining tables have the oval shape but feature a subtle curve at each corner. This means you can fit extra dining chairs on both sides.
It’s actually a mix between an oval table and a rectangular table—doesn’t that sound great?
Unlike regular oval dining tables, you can still place Danish oval dining tables against a wall if you need more walking space next to the table.
