Tiny houses, small apartments, and downsizing personal accommodations have become popular in recent years. Keeping your living space small saves on heating and cooling costs, as well as helps you make a smaller footprint in the world. But fitting a full-sized dinette set into a tiny kitchen or dining area leaves little room for anything else. Specially designed dinette sets for small spaces can be the answer.
- Three-Legged Chairs and Matching Table. Square chairs hardly ever fit a round table, so three-legged chairs with their triangular shape are the perfect answer. When not in use, they fit neatly under the table, their wedge shapes fitting perfectly together.
- Table with corner chairs - Who says that table legs must be at the corners? This uniquely designed table has its legs in the middle of each side, and the chair backs fit neatly around the corners of the square table top. They push in completely when not in use, the backs presenting an attractive wood grain surface.
- Bistro table with two chairs. Elegant little table with two chairs, perfect for a breakfast corner or picture window. Another nice design for two.
- Drop leaf island table with two backless stools. Perfect for the tiny kitchen that has no room for a large table or chairs, or to create an island where the cook can rest and have a cup of tea while waiting for water to boil or something to bake.
- Standard, central leg drop-leaf table - While not as compact or innovative as some of the other examples, the drop leaf saves space when the full table top is not required.
- Small round table with stackable chairs - Once the family is out the door, there’s no need to have four chairs taking up space. Colorful chairs of molded plastic mounted on a metal frame ease space consideration when table and chairs are not in use.
- Built-in table with molded plastic seats - Give a space-age look to your built-in dining island with rolling stools that have molded plastic seats. You’ll be looking for the Wookie and the crazy space-age band with these sleek stool-type seats.
With creative, innovative designs, it’s not difficult to save space with dinette sets for small spaces. Some small dinette sets are truly unique, while others are simply diminutive copies of larger furnishings. They can come in wood, glass, plastic or metal and can mix and match with almost any décor. All you need to add is your unique take on how your kitchen or dining area should look.
