DH and I are FINALLY getting rid of his grandparents dining room set/china cabinet that we *inherited* years ago because we were the only ones with a dining room large enough to accommodate it. We have a HUGE dining room and want to turn it into a Vegas-style lounge area where we can entertain. One end of the room will have a counter height dining area (seating at least 6) and the other end will be a lower conversation pit area - think round table surrounded by 2 rounded swivel chairs and a rounded loveseat. We'll also have a credenza and some shelving on the walls to store glassware, with stemware racks mounted underneath.

The problem I'm having is finding a long narrow dining room table that will accommodate 6-8 barstools (3-4 on either side). I'm thinking it needs to be about 5-6' long, and counter/bar height. I despise glass, so that's out. Ideally I'd like wood, very basic, rectangular. And I can't seem to find what I'm looking for anywhere!!! The bar stools will be no problem, so I don't need help with those. But, the table is the issue.

Any savvy interior designers out there know where I can find something like this, in wood, and black, for not an outrageous sum of $$$?

And feel free to post links/pics of small conversation pit areas as well. I'll take all the ideas I can get! DH and I seem to have very different tastes in style, so we're looking for a compromise. For now, we've decided to let me choose the dining area and shelving, and he'll choose the conversation pit/credenza.

Thanks in advance! :appl:
 
That table would be a easy to make for someone handy with tools. You could get the wood, legs & bases at a home improvement store. Got any friends, relatives who are handy with tools?

Thought about that....asked DH. He didn't seem to know anyone qualified. :confused:
 
Are you looking for modern, contemporary, art deco style furniture?

Yes, all of the above....love all the chairs you posted!
 
This would not be difficult to build, and then you can customize it for the space. When my friends remodeled their kitchen they wanted an eat at kitchen island, so they had one built. What is nice is that you can also build storage space in it.

Basically putting a tall kitchen island in there and then you can even pick out the type of top you want.

You can also search for bar-height tables.
