Our “Executive Chairman of the
Board” dining table accommodates
eight to ten people; the self-stored leaves
pop into place when the table is opened.
Most tables open vertically for added
length, but ours opens horizontally
for extra width. At one metre wide, this
piece has some decidedly European
influences in its size and proportions.
I was first drawn to the natural grey-
washed finish. The style worked perfectly
for the space, plus I loved that the table
opened sideways to create more room
for dinner guests.
Together with Anthony at Taylor
B, I tried out several table and chair
combinations. We came up with the
suede grey quilted chairs and I decided
to inject some more drama by adding
oversized wing chairs at each end; all
the chairs have silver nail heads which
help tie together the whole look.
I have found some of my most
interesting pieces at Taylor B. They have
an ever-changing inventory, so every
time I go, I can find something else to
add to my collection.
Scale might very well be the single
most important factor to consider when
shopping for a dining table, especially if
you’re furnishing a smaller space. Keep
it simple! Opt for quality materials and
a simple design and chances are your
table will never look dated.
