Custom Dining Table Design — Melbourne

Designed Around Your Space and the Way You Live

Every project begins with understanding how you use your home — how many people you seat, how you entertain, and what the table needs to do. The design follows from there.

The Design Process

From Consultation to Delivery

Design and collaboration come first. Production follows only once every decision has been resolved — so the table you receive is the table you imagined.

    Consultation

    We begin by understanding your space, lifestyle, seating needs, and how you entertain. This conversation shapes everything that follows.

    • Your space: room dimensions, floor plan, and circulation
    • How you live: family dining, entertaining, everyday use
    • Scale and proportion: the right dimensions for your room
    • Seating requirements: daily use and larger gatherings

    Design Development

    We work through proportion, silhouette, base design, and edge detail — refining until the table feels right for your room.

  3. 03

    Material Selection

    Timber species, finish tone, and edge profile are chosen together in the context of your interior — guided by both aesthetics and daily use.

  4. 04

    Production

    Once every decision is resolved, your table is made by hand using traditional joinery and sustainably sourced American and Australian hardwoods.

  5. 05

    Delivery

    We deliver your table in two parts, the top and the base, and assemble it in your room, then share aftercare guidance so it keeps looking its best.

Design Development

Resolved in Design Before a Single Cut Is Made

Every table is fully developed through a design phase before production begins. We think carefully about proportion, structural integrity, and how the piece will feel in the room it's made for.

3D modelling allows us to resolve every detail — joint, leg profile, edge, and finish — so what gets built is exactly what was designed. No surprises.

Proportioned to your space
Table dimensions are modelled against your room before anything is made — no guesswork.
Structural integrity by design
Every joint, base configuration, and leg angle is considered for long-term strength and stability.
Material decisions resolved early
Timber grain direction, edge profiles, and finishes are locked in at the design stage, not on the workshop floor.

Custom Dining Table FAQs

What does the design consultation involve?

The consultation is a conversation about your space, your lifestyle, and what you need the table to do. We discuss room dimensions, seating requirements, how you entertain, and your material preferences — and from there we develop a design that feels resolved for your specific situation.

How long does a custom table take?

The design and consultation phase typically takes one to two weeks, depending on how quickly decisions are made and whether refinements are needed. Once the design is approved, production and delivery typically take 8–12 weeks, depending on timber availability and complexity. We'll give you a clear timeline from the outset.

How much does a custom table cost?

Custom tables typically start from $5,000. The final price depends on the size, timber, design and finish, and we'll give you a clear figure once the design is resolved. If you'd like something ready to order, the Studio Collection starts from $1,749.

What timber species and finishes are available?

We work primarily with American Oak, Tasmanian Oak, and American Ash, and can also work with American Walnut and Australian timbers including Blackbutt, Spotted Gum, and Victorian Ash — all sustainably sourced. Finish options include raw matte, clear matte, black satin, and black wash — each selected in the context of your interior palette and how the table will be used. We guide you through every option.

Do you work with interior designers and architects?

Yes. We work directly with designers and architects on residential projects, providing close specification support, timber guidance, and flexible dimensions to suit their clients' briefs and interior palettes.

Can you match existing furniture?

Yes. Bring photos or samples and we'll work to complement your existing pieces in tone and style.

Does the table arrive assembled?

Each table is made in two parts, the top and the base, and arrives that way. Delivery includes assembly, so we put your table together in your room and there is nothing for you to build. We'll check access, such as stairs, lifts, doorways and parking, when we arrange your delivery date.

Do you deliver outside Melbourne?

We deliver Melbourne-wide and across the Mornington Peninsula and Bass Coast. For Geelong, regional Victoria and the rest of Australia, reach out and we'll quote delivery for you.
