i think it should go with your home layout and design... like my house, i can't have a round dining table because it will be very odd... just a thought

The shape of the dining table should blend with the layout. In some instances, the rectangular shape may not be suitable. Have to look at the space

I agree. I can't have round dining table as well, only rectangular ones fit my dining place layout brows.gif

Any advice?

Basically I have a bar area. So i too wouldnt use the dining table much.
Probably dine at the bar area or living area.

My layout as follows:

From your floor plan, I am more inclined to a round shaped table.
Reason, That area is in the middle and round shaped table kinda gives more manuvering room (no edges). biggrin.gif

Square table for 4 will draw them closer but not much space when you have a few dish plus bottles and glass. you have to put the table toward the center because you have chair at 4 side.

You can get a Rectangle table for 4 with narrower side then flush one side to wall or you can leave small gap for a long bench. You get more walking space.

Get a extendable square table if you can't decide now.

I feel more inclined to get a round table like what phoenix69 mentioned "more space to maneuver"

A rectangular table(if flushed to the wall) would block the clear passage to the balcony which is what i wanted due to the beautiful pool view that came with the unit.
