Why Dining Tables Are Important in Singapore Homes

• Family bonding — Dining tables are central to family meals and gatherings.

• Multi-purpose use — In many HDB flats and condos, the dining table doubles as a study or work desk.

• Interior design — The style of the dining table often sets the tone for the dining or living space.

According to the Department of Statistics Singapore, the average HDB flat size ranges between 45–120 sqm, making space planning an important factor in choosing a dining table.

Common Dining Table Materials in Singapore

Solid Wood Dining Tables

Durable and long-lasting, solid wood like teak, oak, or walnut can withstand Singapore’s humidity better than softwoods.

Engineered Wood & Laminate

Budget-friendly but may not last as long. Lamination helps resist moisture, though edges can warp over time.

Glass Dining Tables

Tempered glass dining tables offer a modern look and are easy to clean but can show fingerprints and smudges easily.

Metal & Hybrid Designs

Powder-coated steel or aluminum frames paired with wood or glass tops provide durability and a contemporary aesthetic.
