Sturdy, versatile, and true to form, traditional wood dining tables—be it a long and narrow walnut stunner or a round reclaimed antique—are favorites for a reason. Often taking a back seat so a loud wallpaper print or striking statement light fixture can shine, dining tables have long been thought of in terms of function. But what if, for once, the table itself was the star of the room?

Luckily, inspired alternatives exist—and, we have to admit, we’re loving the fresh perspectives they quite literally bring to the table. Unwaveringly bold and intensely hued, the fearless surfaces ahead serve as a reminder that color is best served alongside the main course.

First table: Why spend a small fortune vacationing along coastal Italy when you can channel the same spirit of the Mediterranean on your tabletop instead? Abound in breezy shades of blue, this geometric number quite charmingly sums up everything we love about seaside living. And thanks to its weather-resistant, painted tile top, your backyard can now enjoy the burst of color it deserves.

If you’re a renter, creating a dining space that is as stylish as it is functional can be a challenge.

Whether you have a designated dining room or not, this abstract option will fill your home with instant energy and character.
