Hello Megan, i have read the comments, and I agree practicality is paramount, also it's a large investment and would be not be ideal to have purchased this with an awkward setting. Particularly entertaining. i think the 1200mm diameter table is a great spot. It loses a dinner plate in depth, meaning it's a seated table not a serving one. So it will work to have a shared centrepiece maybe a glass vase of flowers and the pendant over. It will suit your family, it would be an intimate setting, and ideal to have the luxury of an upholstered chair. Certainly far from a compromise. Being that your dining table is only a hop away from the kitchen, the table itself doesn't need to have a large top for serving setting anyway. Yes, centre it, even though you may be tempted to allow more room in the walkway, don't, by having a visual space equal to walk around will make it feel less intrusive in the space, and you will quickly settle into walking around it to suit. Just position your chairs on the diagonal axis meaning so they back out to the corners of the room, so you can get around them easier, they won't block in the space. Having a glass top, it won't look over scaled, and it will make practical use of every square inch of your homeow. Good luck, I'm keeping myself posted on it.

Looks like a very unique piece! Wonder if it was imported...

The photo is to feature bench top and table by Timber Revival. Maybe contact them (Website, Facebook or on Houzz) to find out about tiles in the picture? They may be able to tell you, or find out from one of their clients. They really are beautiful tiles.

Maybe try Asian/Balinese style business or look at pinterest: that will give you idea that you could take to a tradesman and get a quote on bespoke or if you have a male that is very handy some great ideas on that link. https://www.pinterest.com.au/pin/419679259009258301/
