The shape of a table affects not only the look of a room but also how liveable the space is day to day. Here's how to choose between a round and an oval Tulip table.
The round table: conviviality and small spaces
A round table encourages conversation, since it places every guest at the same distance, and it's ideal for smaller dining rooms thanks to its compact footprint.
The oval table: elegance and capacity
The oval shape combines the elegance of curved lines with the seating capacity typical of extended tables, making it perfect for those who want to host more guests without giving up softness of form.
How to choose based on the room
In a square room, a round table highlights the corners, while in a rectangular space, an oval table naturally follows the room's proportions, ensuring visual balance. To learn more, read also: Round or Rectangular Table: Pros and Cons for Every Room.
