While most people tend to picture rectangular shapes for anything over five covers, an 8 seater square dining table can be a much more logical choice in several instances. First of all, it looks better in rooms or areas in the same shape. Square tables for 8 are also more space-saving than rectangular options, and they can facilitate conversation by keeping everyone close by: perfect for large households and informal gatherings.

Lighter options are more contemporary and can help you maintain an airier feel.
