Whether there is a separate dining room, or the dining room is integrated with the living room and kitchen, the area of the dining area must be determined first, otherwise it will not be just a heart plug if you buy more. If the house is large and has an independent restaurant, you can choose a bigger and thicker dining table, which looks very imposing; If the restaurant area is limited and there are not many people eating on weekdays, a simple small dining table will be fine; If you think that there are frequent holiday parties and more diners, and the small table can't hold it, then the retractable dining table is your best choice. Don't waste space by buying a big dining table for an uncertain and rare big party in a few years.
If necessary, a dining table can serve multiple roles, such as a writing desk and a mahjong table for entertainment. In families without independent restaurants, the first thing to consider is whether the dining table can meet the needs of family members and whether it is convenient to put away when the space is too small. If you want to put away at any time to make room, the folding dining table meets the requirements best.
Matters needing attention in buying a dining table Choose a dining table according to the style of home improvement.
If the decoration style is luxurious, you need some heavyweight dining tables to match it. For example, gorgeous European decoration, dining table can also be carved into European style with heavy solid wood, and simple log color dining table can be selected for fresh pastoral style, and the fashionable and simple decoration is as simple as possible. In terms of color and material, try to be consistent with other furniture to avoid being abrupt.
Precautions for choosing a dining table The shape of the dining table determines the dining atmosphere.
From movies or paintings, we can see that western families will dine around a large rectangular dining table. The dining table is magnificent and the tableware is exquisite, but it is obviously difficult to reach the food at the other end from one end of the dining table, so this kind of dining table is still suitable for western food, and there are many people eating it, which seems to be not in line with our national conditions. For the China family, the whole family is very happy to get together. Judging from the modeling implication and dining habits, the round table is most suitable for large families. A larger square table is also good. It will be convenient to play mahjong after dinner. If it's just a two-person world or a family of three, a small dining table for four to six people is basically enough. If you want to choose a small dining table with special shape to adjust the atmosphere, try it.
When buying a dining table, you need to match and compare the dining table.
In a restaurant, the dining table is not the only furniture. In addition to other furniture styles and materials, it should also be matched with background walls, lamps, tablecloths and even tableware placed on the dining table. When girls buy clothes, it often happens that they buy a particularly outstanding and beautiful dress, only to find that they don't have pants when they go home, and finally the pants, shoes and bags are all ready, or they find that the heels don't match the hairstyle temperament, which is really frustrating. So is the dining table. If the restaurant can be designed as a complete set, this dilemma can certainly be avoided. If you buy separately, you should plan well.
Dining table shopping tips
1, table material.
As far as the material of the table top is concerned, most of them are mainly made of wood, which has a warm and thick texture and is a good choice for those who want to create a warm and fresh feeling at home.
Wooden dining table can be divided into solid wood and density board. The former shows the natural texture and heavy texture of logs, adds natural flavor to the home, and does processing such as carving, carving and dyeing; Dense board is also a solid wood veneer, which not only maintains the natural lines of solid wood, but also has a smooth surface, but the edge of the table cannot be treated with special effects in other ways.
As for other materials, there are metal, glass, marble or melamine board, which have a cool, transparent or elegant texture and can be selected according to your own tastes and needs.
However, no matter what the material of the table top is, the legs of the table are made of solid wood or steel pipes, which should have a certain bearing capacity.
2. The size of the dining table.
The size of the dining table is related to the comfort of the dining space.
If it is a small or closed restaurant, you can choose a small dining table with a length and width of about 120×80 cm. If you have an open or semi-open restaurant with a wider visual sense, the medium-sized dining table of 160×80 cm can meet this space demand. If it is a villa-type large apartment, there are tables up to 2 meters or 3 meters long to choose from.
3. The shape of the dining table.
Dining tables with different shapes not only have rich changes in shape and vision, but also are related to the spacious space of the restaurant. Rectangular restaurant, because of reliable wall placement, saves more space and is suitable for small apartments, but its shape is relatively dull; The oval shape modifies the sharp four legs of the table and improves the visual effect of the square rule, but it takes up more space than the round table.
