Many modern dining tables feature a wooden top and base. For light wood tables and other dining room furniture, oak and pine are commonly used. Light- and medium-colored wood is often seen in mid-century modern dining tables, although you will sometimes see them crafted using darker woods. Other popular wood types include mahogany, walnut, and maple. A wood modern farmhouse dining table is versatile and easy to work with. The construction of a modern wood dining table is solid, and wood can be refurbished and sanded over the years.


A modern glass dining table is easy to care for and requires minimal upkeep. Because it’s versatile, glass can be cut and shaped in almost any style you choose. The frames for glass tables may be metal, wood, or graphite. Marble dining tables add a luxurious look to a dining room. The marble has varying patterns and colors, and these tabletops are easy to clean and maintain. Other modern table materials may include acrylic, metal, and stone.

To create an edgy feel around your modern dining chairs and table, consider centerpieces like metal and glass sculptures or a trio of minimalist ceramic vases with greenery and flowers. Modern dining table centerpieces such as a long wooden tray lined with succulents and candles add vibrancy to the space where your family gathers to dine.


For everyday dining table decor, less is more. The key is to keep things simple, especially if you have a small space. A wooden bowl full of fresh fruit set on a colorful table runner beautifully tops off a small modern dining table, serving both a functional and aesthetic purpose.


Style an extendable dining table with coordinating place settings and cloth napkins that complement the table’s design. Modern oval dining tables have smooth curves that lend themselves well to elongated centerpieces like elaborate vases or a slender tray with votive candles. Top a modern black dining table with a brightly colored fruit bowl made with sea glass. Alternatively, use stark white placemats and add the monochromatic look of a white vase with white flowers.
