The table often becomes the centrepiece of the room and plays a big role in how comfortable, practical and professional the space feels. There are several factors to consider before selecting a boardroom table, including the size of the room, the number of people you need to seat and how the space will be used on a daily basis. ### **Start With the Room Size** The size and layout of your meeting room will help determine what shape and size table will work best. A large boardroom may comfortably fit a long rectangular table, while a smaller meeting room may benefit from a round table to improve movement and make better use of the available space. It is generally recommended to allow at least 1.5 metres between the table and the walls. This gives people enough room to move chairs in and out comfortably while still allowing easy access around the room. ### **Think About How the Room Will Be Used** Before selecting a table, it is important to think about the main purpose of the room. Will it mainly be used for internal meetings, client presentations, video conferencing or collaborative work sessions? Many modern meeting rooms also require access to power, data and USB connectivity. Built in power and data boxes can be incorporated into boardroom tables to keep cables organised and improve functionality. In larger spaces or custom layouts, multiple power boxes may be required to support the needs of the room. ### **Choosing the Right Table Shape** Different table shapes can create different working environments. Rectangular boardroom tables are a popular choice for larger rooms and formal meeting spaces. They provide plenty of seating and work well in traditional office layouts. Round meeting tables are often ideal for smaller rooms as they encourage conversation and collaboration while making the room feel more open. U shaped table layouts can also work well for training rooms, presentations and larger group discussions where visibility is important. ### **Boardroom Table Sizes** Boardroom tables are available in a wide range of sizes depending on the number of people you need to accommodate. Standard rectangular meeting tables can range from approximately 1800mm wide by 900mm deep through to 4500mm wide by 1200mm deep. The style of chair you choose will also affect how many people can comfortably sit around the table. Slimline meeting chairs can be a practical solution in tighter spaces, while larger executive chairs may require more room. ### **Planning Your Meeting Room Layout** Every office space is different, which is why careful planning is important when selecting [boardroom furniture](https://www.hunterofficefurniture.com.au/tables/boardroom-tables/). Measuring the room correctly and understanding how the space will be used can help avoid costly mistakes and improve the overall functionality of the area. Whether you have an existing floor plan or need assistance measuring the room, professional advice can help you choose the most suitable boardroom table layout for your office.
