It is a recommended option for <strong>adding conviviality<\/strong> to a dining room, living room, kitchen or outdoor space. A round table allows diners the opportunity to sit comfortably and <strong>relate spontaneously with all the guests<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Round living room tables: inspiration and tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The round table is a flexible piece of furniture , <strong>lending itself to multiple interpretations<\/strong>, depending on the d\u00e9cor in which it is placed. The rounded shape implies a different distribution of space, which must be done carefully so as not to overcrowd living spaces. The <strong>modern round table <\/strong>always instils a <strong>sense of elegance<\/strong>, and it is no coincidence that it is a piece <strong>reinterpreted by all the big names in design<\/strong>. Often, these models have only one central leg: this choice facilitates combinations, leaving buyers free to place a whimsical detail within a serious d\u00e9cor or vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Round tables, choose according to size.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who say that round tables are unsuitable for homes with small footprints are wrong. By carefully choosing the complementary furniture, it is <strong>possible to make the most of every corner of the home<\/strong>without sacrificing comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the shape is round, <strong>the diameter must be measured<\/strong> to calculate its dimensions. A coffee table with a <strong>small <\/strong>diameter is more suitable as a <strong>piece of furniture in the living room<\/strong>: for example, to place magazines, books or to use the computer. The <strong>larger<\/strong> table, on the other hand, becomes the central element of the kitchen, on which meals are eaten and <strong>moments of conviviality are experienced in with <\/strong>&nbsp;yourfamily or friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to allow for easy movement of seated diners, certain measurements must be observed: generally, it is considered that the space occupied by a person seated at the table is about 50 cm and they need at least another 25 cm to be able to stand up and move around comfortably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the standard sizes:<br>-Diameter of round table for 4 persons: at least 77 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Diameter of round table for 6 persons: at least 115 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Diameter of round table for 8 persons: at least 153 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Diameter of round table for 12 persons: at least 230 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there is the <strong>option of the extendable round table<\/strong>: like the rectangular structure, the same criteria are followed for the round one, with <strong>a sliding part<\/strong> <strong>underneath the table<\/strong>, precisely inside it, <strong>which is raised to extend the initial surface area<\/strong>. This system is activated with a simple hand gesture, without effort. Buying a round table, with the possibility to extend it at will, is a viable solution for the accomodation issues of many homes, especially in large cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/foto-per-blog.png\" alt=\"Barone: Il tavolo rotondo firmato Bontempi\" class=\"wp-image-102510\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Barone: <\/strong>Bontempi Table<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Round tables: which materials to choose<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas <strong>in the past<\/strong> , a certain uniformity of materials was preferred, favouring <strong>wood <\/strong>above all, today models made of different materials, such as steel, aluminium and glass, are more widespread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a <strong>classic<\/strong> , traditional <strong>style<\/strong> , fine woods are chosen: <strong>cherry or ash<\/strong> , which are extremely flexible yet retain a certain degree of ruggedness. For a <strong>modern style<\/strong>, one opts for a combination of materials, among which <strong>steel and aluminium<\/strong>stand out. Although the most sought-after model with <strong>a strong personality<\/strong>is still the <strong>round glass table<\/strong>. It is considered an element of elegance due to its original combination with other materials: the wood and steel of the structure, which perfectly match the transparency of the glass. Such a table finds its place <strong>in the living room where guests are received<\/strong> and happy hours are spent with the family. Or, it is <strong>also a suitable <\/strong>accessory<strong> for <\/strong>the <strong>office<\/strong>,<strong> for the meetings with your customers<\/strong>.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Four-legged round tables: advantages and disadvantages<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the <strong>most successful<\/strong> models have a <strong>single central leg<\/strong>. However, there are also round tables <strong>with four legs<\/strong>, which thus take up the lines of a square table. In this case, however, <strong>there are the same constraints as with a square<\/strong> <strong>or rectangular<\/strong>table, i.e. the seats at the table are fixed: it is difficult to allow the diners to relate to each other in total freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The round table is chosen as an alternative to the classic rectangular or square tables when you want to give a touch of originality to the environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":102515,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5862],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-102522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bontempi-casa-proposals"],"acf":{"blog_cta":{"tagline":"","title":"","body":"","link_text":"","link":""},"gallery":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102522"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102522\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":122325,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102522\/revisions\/122325"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
