Thanks Janine and Luke. Our home is not country by any means. It is a new build. The dining room is part of an open space that joins our stairs, living and kitchen. We are going for a "scandinavian look" if that is even the word for it! haha. A lot of timber, timber floors and furniture, clean whites and greys. Lots of timber stacker doors, glass pendant lights, glass handrails on open timber stairs, all white kitchen with one long large window, a single timber shelf rather than upper cupboards and oversized glazed white subway tile splash back. It's hard to explain….do you think this sort of table would work in that sort of space?

Hi, please post photos of the space, and what country are you in?

A glass dinning table with dark timber legs in a X cross look in the middle of table will be ideal . You can still see the beautiful floor tiles and the dark timber legs will look amazing over the grey tiles. Have full fabric greyish brown chairs with same leg as the table.

I think it depends on the size of your household and how many people sit down to dine. Do you have family and friends for dinner? The current round table looks like it can seat 4 people comfortably, but six people may be a bit cosy. If you need a table for more than four people then I would go rectangular. You could always compromise with an oval table? An oval table doesn't need to align with anything, so it can be angled to make the most of the space without looking crooked.
