What Singapore Homeowners Should Know
Singapore homes — whether BTO flats, resale HDBs, condos, or landed properties — each present their own furnishing challenges. Emotional celebration of the dining space as a family gathering point This guide from Rozel Furnishing gives you the clarity to decide with confidence, backed by our years of experience in the local market.
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.
