Luxury Interior Design Trends and The Expanding Round Table

  • Lotus Woodworks
Aug 22, 2023

Expanding round tables are an elegant masterpiece, composing a symphony of artistry and technical sophistication. At the heart of every dining room, there should be a luxurious centerpiece that epitomizes both form and function, and the expanding round table is the perfect option.

In this blog, we will cover the following:

  • Current Luxury Interior Design Trends
  • The Expanding Round Table: A Trend-Setting Innovation
  • Case Studies: How Homeowners Are Embracing the Trend
  • Collaborating With Designers and Architects

Current Luxury Interior Design Trends

Burke – Quarter Sawn Teak / Straight Bookmatched / Grey Wash Satin Finish

Embracing Minimalism and Clean Lines

The “neutral’ color palette- grays, browns, black, and white- has become a popular choice in minimalist decor. The simplicity of clean lines and a restricted color palette exude sophistication and make for a timeless design. Minimalism enhances the wood’s natural beauty, paired with a historical luxury expanding round table. 

Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Materials

With an eco-conscious mindset, making your space beautiful can also be done sustainably. More accessible than ever, recycled materials such as plastic, reclaimed wood, and bamboo can be used to revamp your ambiance. Other sustainable design trends include repurposed vintage furniture, green technology (like solar panels), and energy-efficient appliances.

Biophilic Design: Bringing Nature Indoors

Did you know that having indoor plants can reduce stress, aid in illness recovery, heighten productivity, and increase feelings of wellness? Reconnecting yourself with nature can make a home space more comfortable and health-centered. 

Other biophilic designs include:

  • Large windows to replace walls. 
  • Natural light focus.
  • Living walls (a wall made up of plants or other greenery).
  • Water features. 
  • Green roofs. 

Technology Integration: Smart Homes and Furniture

With each passing year, technology soars to limitless heights. 

Smart home additives can reduce stress and save your family time, with the most popular of these technologies being:

  • Smart lighting
  • Water sensors
  • Automated blinds
  • Smart thermostats

Integrating failsafe features into your home can ensure protection and leave you with peace of mind. With the ability to control your features through an app, smart technology is literally at the tip of your fingers. 

Focus on Comfort and Well-Being

Being comfortable in your home’s aura is a luxury. By including clean materials such as natural sunlight, non-toxic materials, and essential oils, it has become popular to focus on comfort. Materials like stone, plants, and wood can create warmth in the home, which enhances relaxation. An expanding round table crafted from a variety of hardwood trees brings an element of comfort to your dining area. 

The Expanding Round Table: A Trend-Setting Innovation

Cocoa Bean – Flat Sawn Alder / Custom Pattern / Semi-Gloss Finish with Chip Carved Top

Space Efficiency for Modern Living

The expanding round table is as simple as it sounds–a round table that expands for preferred additional seating. With the option to customize your table size, you can save space efficiently. 

Craftsmanship and Luxury Materials

At Lotus Woodworks, we offer exclusive features and customizations. With dense American hardwoods and exotic woods, we only work alongside the highest quality lumber material. Each table is crafted by hand to ensure precision and mastery of craftsmanship. Only one of our craftsmen will work on your table, translating into a seamless tone from base to finish. Each table is considered an art, and each luxury material is meticulously picked to enhance the final product. Our design philosophy remains committed to trend and tradition!

Customizable to Personal Tastes and Needs

Each customer can select their wood preferability, base shape, tabletop design, and color glaze finish. The functionality and beauty of your selection can then be displayed for years to come.  

Case Studies: How Homeowners are Embracing the Trend

Transforming Traditional Spaces

Traditional design trends can take on a modern spin with minor adjustments. You don’t have to completely renovate your home to keep up with recent trends.  Among the most popular transitions include:

  • Repainting walls with a soft palette- such as warm white. 
  • Removing window treatments and expanding window size. 
  • Switching out light fixtures. 
  • Matching woods for a seamless look. 

Simplicity is luxury. Taking the time to focus on classic, timeless designs can drastically improve the look of your home and the aura of your space. 

Enhancing Contemporary Homes

Removing clutter is a top-tier method to enhance your contemporary home. Resetting your focus to minimalistic designs, colors, furniture, and decor can not only associate you with current design trends but also modernizes your home with ease. 

Collaborating with Designers and Architects

Carina – Quarter Sawn Teak / Angled Bookmatched / Satin Finish

Working with Industry Experts

Lotus Woodworks partners with industry experts to deliver the most lavish furniture experience. Based in Jerome, Arizona, we craft your table in-house with one person dedicated to your custom piece. After the design is completed, we recommend white glove delivery, where a member of our team will hand usher your table into your home- no matter where you are across the continental United States and Canada.

Creating Cohesive Luxury Spaces

Cohesivity comes hand in hand with luxury. Pairing your custom expanding round table with matching woods in your home makes it look decluttered and luxurious. 

Additional luxury additives include:

  • Eye-catching chandeliers. 
  • Ambient lighting. 
  • Strategic mirror placements. 

Each of these elements draws attention to the skillful thought that went into the craft of the room. Expanding round tables magnify eloquent design and add character to your cohesive space.

Lotus Tables

Expanding Round Table Operation


Expand your table to accommodate guests in minutes.

Operating the table is a simple process. Since the table top is on a locking carousel, you can open and close the table from one place instead of having to walk around the table. First pull each pie out and unfold each leaf. Then push each leaf into the center and then each pie to lock it all into place. There is a lock underneath to keep the table from spinning.

PRICING


Included in the pricing of every custom Lotus Table:

Wood Selection

We source the highest quality lumber available for each table we build and are meticulous in culling for wood density, moisture content and the specific grain patterns our clients require. Your choice of most American hardwoods are included in the starting price. Exotic woods are up charged at current market price.

Bases

We offer six standard bases. The Ball, Caporaso and Curved Column bases are included in the starting price. The Corbels, Tapered and Barrel base are upgrades. If you have an interest in a different style base or would like to create a truly original custom, we will guide you through the process.

Top Design

Unique top designs and custom inlays are one of our fortes! Each table top design poses different challenges that are priced accordingly. A more simple straight grain table top is included in the starting price.

Our Finish

This is the most important part of the process. We are proud of exceeding expectations by delivering the highest level of color corrected and top coatings available. Physical approval samples are sent for each table and revisions are made until our client is satisfied. A two part custom color toning and/or glaze and a multiple coat flat or satin conversion varnish top coat is included in the starting price. Grain filled high gloss finishes, variable contrasting colors or any finish requirements that exceed time and materials allotted are an up-charge and will add to the production time.

Bench Made

In Our Workshop all of our pieces are hand-made, start to finish, by a single craftsman. We approach each table as a unique piece of art that must be functional and maintain its beauty for years to come. This requires one individual to accept full control and responsibility for the detailed precision and process execution to achieve.

Final Assembly and Inspection

Each piece is inspected, signed and delicately wrapped before it makes its way to your home.

White Glove Delivery

We offer white-glove delivery, assuring you that someone from our family will usher your new work of art all the way to its destination.

SHIPPING & WHITE GLOVE DELIVERY


White Glove Delivery

The preferred method of delivery is to let us bring it to you. A Lotus Table expert will schedule a time to come to your location, deliver and install the table, and teach you how to assemble, operate, and care for your investment/masterpiece/showpiece. Delivery and installation are not included in the price of the Expanding Round Table and only available in the contiguous US.

International Delivery

Expandable Round Tables can be shipped internationally. To ensure that they arrive to you safely, they will need to ship disassembled. We do supply video installation instructions. Although the installation is simple, professional delivery and assembly is recommended.

John Mark McClellan has been delivering and installing Expanding Round Tables and other Western Heritage Furniture for over 20 years.

DEPOSITS & PAYMENTS

There is currently an ever growing waiting list for the Expandable Round Table.

We require a 70% deposit to secure your place in the production line. There will be a 15% progress payment due mid production and the balance will be due upon completion.

We accept Wire Transfer, Check and Credit Cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) with a 2.8% processing fee.

All transactions are secure, processed and verified by Authorize.net and/or PayPal with the latest 256 bit encryption technology.
