Insights That Save Time and Money
Buying furniture is one of the most impactful decisions for your home. Dining solution for BTO flats where dining shares space with living At Rozel Furnishing, we have helped thousands of Singapore families through our Sims Avenue, Sungei Kadut, and Labrador Villa showrooms — and in this article, we share what we have learned.
Getting Dining Dimensions Right
In many Singapore homes, the dining area shares space with the living room. Allow at least 60cm per person along the table edge, and 80-100cm between the table edge and the nearest wall for chair movement.
For a standard 4-room BTO, a table seating 4 to 6 people is usually most practical. Pedestal-base tables make it easier to tuck chairs in fully compared to four-leg designs.
Choosing the Right Shape
- Rectangular — Most versatile. Fits against walls, maximises seating. Ideal for narrow HDB dining areas.
- Round — Creates intimate dining. No sharp corners — safer for homes with children. Best for square-shaped spaces.
- Oval — Generous surface area with a softer visual profile. Good for medium-sized rooms.
- Extendable — Perfect for festive entertaining while staying compact for daily use.
Rozel Furnishing carries dining tables in all shapes, including our popular marble and sintered stone collections.
Pairing Chairs With Your Table
Standard table height is 73-76cm; seat height should be 43-48cm for comfortable posture. Armless chairs tuck under the table more completely in tight spaces. For frequent hosts, consider stackable supplementary chairs.
