Conference Table Quest

I am currently researching sleek, minimal looking conference tables for our new conference room. Ideally I’d like it to be white and foldable. I started a Conference Room Pinterest Board where I am collecting my finds.

My current favorite is the Pratt Desk. Do you happen to have any recommendations? If so, would you mind to leave them in a comment below?

  1. Since 10 years I am in love with a Swiss product from Atelier Alinea. I am using the Unistandardtisch since then. There is the sister of the same table called Uniklapptisch. You can choose the toppings as you want. White Lino maybe? All the best from sunny MTX, Kei

  2. Tina,
    I love the Eiermann Tables from Germany.

  4. Have a look at the tables made by Nils Holger Moormann.

    I am a proud owner of a »Spanoto«, but maybe »Last Minute« does fit better to your purpose. Last but not least, »Egon« is a great homage to the Eiermann table mentioned above.

  5. If you like the Pratt desk, have a look at the table Meltorp from Ikea.

  7. How about you just get some beautiful beechwood trestle legs and purchase a table top of your choosing to suit:

  15. The IKEA Norden dining room table is cheap and durable. It expands wider than most conference tables. Real wood wears better than melamine.

  17. This table doesn’t quite fit your criteria, but I thought I’d suggest it anyway.

  25. I use a pratt desk as a dining table at home and we also have a bunch of them as sketching tables at the studio I work for.

    They’re great tables as far as proportions and looks, but unfortunately the tables in both my home and office have started to noticeably wear after only being used for about a year/6 months (respectively)

    They both get very good use so just treat them well and you should be fine.

    the Reale Table | Zanotta by Carlo Mollino. large size ( there is a company that makes a flat pack replica that is affordable)
