An extra-large formal oval dining room layout seats 14 to 16 people, centered around a grand oval-shaped trestle dining table. This table's elongated oval form is ideal for facilitating interaction and conversation among a large number of guests, as its contours allow for easy eye contact and dialogue flow across the table.
The use of formal upholstered full-back chairs ensures that comfort is maintained throughout long dinners and gatherings. This configuration is perfect for hosting substantial, elegant events where a sense of closeness and inclusivity is desired, blending sophisticated design with functional hospitality to create a welcoming yet opulent dining atmosphere.
Formal X-Large Oval Dining Room layouts feature tables for 14-16 people with typical table widths between 4’-5’ (1.22-1.52 m) and table lengths of 15’-18’ (4.57-5.49 m).
