Chalk Minimal Four-seat, compact Dining Room Design
Nothing decorative survives unless it also does work. Long uninterrupted planes, shadow-gap joints, one quiet grain. Dining is about clearance and light. We size the table to the room's circulation, then hang the light at the height that makes people look well.

Dining Room questions
How much clearance is needed around a dining table?
900mm from the table edge to the nearest wall or furniture, and 1,050mm if people need to walk behind a seated diner. Less than that and chairs collide with the wall.
How high should a dining pendant hang?
750mm to 850mm above the tabletop. Higher and it stops lighting the table; lower and it blocks the sightline across it.
What size table fits six people?
1,600mm to 1,800mm long by 900mm wide. Allow 600mm of table edge per person as the working minimum.
Marble or engineered stone for a dining top?
Engineered stone if the table gets daily use with children — marble stains from turmeric, wine and citrus within months unless it is sealed regularly and wiped immediately.
