What is the best material for a dining room table?
Solid wood is the clear choice for the best dining table material. It's not just about the classic look – solid wood dining tables are built to last. Sturdy and durable, wooden dining tables can withstand accidental spills and wear and tear, giving you the most bang for your buck. They’re low maintenance and easy to clean, and their timeless style only gets better with age.
Whether you're looking for a grand solid wood dining room table or a cozy wooden kitchen table, solid wood is the perfect choice. Plus, don't forget to pair your table with solid wood dining chairs or solid wood dining benches to complete your solid wood table set. At Plank+Beam, we craft our solid wood dining furniture for maximum durability. We design it to be a centerpiece in your home for years to come.
What dining table is best for small spaces?
The right small dining table can make all the difference in small kitchens and dining areas. A round dining table is perfect because it saves space while giving you enough room to gather. Round kitchen tables fit neatly into corners and breakfast nooks, saving extra floor space.
For added functionality, a counter-high table can double as a breakfast table or even a work-from-home space. A dining table set for 4 keeps things functional without feeling cramped. No matter the size of your space, there are plenty of stylish choices for small spaces with Plank+Beam dining tables.
Should I choose dining chairs or dining benches?
The choice between a dining room chair and a dining room bench depends on how you want to use your dining space. Kitchen chairs are a classic choice that you can never go wrong with. They add a more formal look to your dining space than a bench, and their backrests add extra comfort and support. However, if you're going for a casual dining setup or need to seat more people, consider a dining table with bench.
At the end of the day, there’s no need to choose between chairs and benches – try mixing and matching them. Use a bench on one side and chairs on the other, or use benches on each side and chairs at the heads of the table. No matter your preference, Plank+Beam offers dining room sets with both seating options, catering to everyone’s taste.
What dining room furniture is trending in 2024?
In 2024, dining room furniture is all about sleek modern styles with a touch of cozy charm. Modern dining tables and modern dining chairs with clean lines are trending. Plus, don't be afraid to play around with darker colors in your dining room. Walnut dining tables and black dining tables add a bold, trendy look to your space.
Contrast is also a major theme for dining room furniture this year. Try pairing a light wood dining table with black dining chairs for a stylish look with tons of contrast.
