A contemporary table differs from a traditional model by an original form, color, construction method or materials. It may add a unique touch to a standard or classic table design. A contemporary table may be folding, have extensions or multiple functions, with built-in lighting, storage, hotplate or a hole for a parasol. On ArchiExpo, such pieces are categorized by properties including function or material.
These tables may be intended for interior or exterior use. It may be designed for a specific function, such as dining, entertaining, displaying items or working. There are mobile, foldaway, stackable and fixed models, available individually or in multiples. Some versions come with matching chairs.
Popular construction materials include stainless steel, glass, synthetic rattan, wood and plastic.
Table style can be chosen to complement or contrast with nearby furniture. Consider its proportions in relation to other pieces in the room and how its color and form will affect the quality of the space. Determine whether it will be fixed or moved regularly.
Choose the size of the table carefully to provide adequate seating while leaving sufficient space to move around. Ensure that the height of the table is suitable for the function. Consider sturdiness and maintenance needs. A restaurant table may have to meet higher health and safety standards, and be more durable than a model chosen for the home.
