Buying Guides for Outdoor Dining Tables

With such a pleasant climate here in WA, it’s no wonder our backyard spaces get so much use. Living in this temperate part of the world is ideal for outdoor living, which in many households means the outside dining spaces get much more use than more traditional indoor rooms.

Finding suitable outdoor dining tables in Perth is key to a cohesive exterior, whether you love to entertain groups of friends, or simply cook a meal for your immediate family. There are many important elements to consider – from making sure it fits well, to choosing the perfect style for your home decor – so read on to learn all about how to find your dream outdoor dining table.

What to consider for new outdoor dining tables in Perth

Any new piece of quality furniture can rightly be thought of as an investment, chosen to work for you and your family’s needs for the foreseeable future. Finding outdoor tables in Perth is no different, with multiple factors to consider before determining what will work best for your desired functionality, available space, and of course, withstand the elements.

Outdoor space

Fitting outdoor furniture should enhance and compliment your space, not encroach on or impact its overall functionality. Measuring your available space is therefore the first step to finding a new outdoor dining table, so you can know for certain that your chosen outdoor table will fit in seamlessly along with chairs.

Shape

Once you have determined the available space and ideal layout, it is time to consider the best table shape for your needs. The size constraints of your garden or patio will likely help narrow down the options; cosier spaces can benefit from round outdoor tables in Perth like the Avignon style, whereas large families with a more spacious outdoor setting tend to require a long rectangular shape with extensions, like the Memphis ceramic table in charcoal.

Style 

Moving on from the more practical and functional considerations, considering the best style table to work with your existing home decor is the most satisfying part of choosing a new outdoor dining table. With such a wide range of looks, materials, and finishes to choose from, there is a quality design available for all tastes; from the clean white Linfield style to the chic dark charcoal of the long Armada table. 

Think about the surrounding colour scheme and use of materials in the space, and choose a table that is complementary and harmonious to the aesthetic.

Table size

Depending on both your existing space and specific requirements for use, choosing the ideal table size should work for your personal needs. No one wants to cram a large table into a cosy space, as it makes it difficult for guests to move around and get comfortable, and a tiny table in a vast area looks unbalanced.

Consider outdoor dining tables in Perth that are proportionate to your outdoor space, taking colour, shape, and style into consideration in the process.

Material

Selecting the right material for outdoor tables in Perth is crucial for both durability and aesthetics. Perth’s climate can be harsh, so choose materials that can withstand the elements. Teak is an excellent option due to its natural oil content, which makes it resistant to water and pests. Aluminum is another durable choice, known for being lightweight and rust-resistant, making it easy to move and maintain.

For a more contemporary look, synthetic wicker provides the charm of natural wicker without the upkeep, as it is both weatherproof and fade-resistant. Ultimately, the material you choose should align with your style preferences and practical needs, ensuring your table remains a centrepiece of your outdoor space for years to come.
