The right gaming table depends on what you play and how the room is used between games. Furniture Art Company designs custom tables for board games, role-playing games and pool. A clear brief helps distinguish a dedicated gaming setup from a table that also needs to work for everyday dining.
Size the playing area around your games
Measure the board, mats and accessories used in your regular games. Consider the number of players, comfortable reach and space for character sheets, cards or drinks. A larger table is not automatically easier to use if players cannot reach the centre.
Plan storage and accessories
Decide which features matter most: recessed play space, removable tops, accessory trays or storage. Explain how you want to pause and resume a game and where loose components will go. Agree optional fittings and their dimensions before manufacture instead of assuming they are included.
Check room clearance and access
Allow for chairs, movement and nearby cupboard doors. Pool tables also need room around the playing surface for cue use; the suitable layout depends on the table and the room. Explore our pool table collection and send a room plan before choosing a size.
Dining and gaming in one room
A convertible design may suit a shared room, but consider top handling, storage, table height and everyday use. Our dining and gaming table comparison explores those trade-offs. For a wider entertainment space, see man cave furniture ideas.
Discuss your custom table
Send the room dimensions, location, games played, player count and a list of essential features. Include your finish preference and budget range. Request a gaming table quotation with this brief so we can discuss a practical design.
