Dining Design Tip #1
Dining tables with a pedestal base offer lots of leg room and can feel intimate and cozy. Plus, you can tuck in an extra seat or two around the holidays for extra guests. A square table is ideal for four, with each diner equidistant, facilitating conversation. Need more room? Put two square dining tables together to create a rectangular table shape.
