If your conference room also functions as the office lunch room, it would be best to select chairs that will clean up nicely. Food and drink spills do happen from time to time within a lunch room, which is why fabric chairs will not work. If you spill food or drink on a fabric chair, removing the stains from chair will be difficult. The chair is going to look dirty and old.

Instead of fabric chairs, we would recommend using chairs that are upholstered in black leather.  Leather can be wiped clean removing food and drink.  We would recommend a mesh chair.  Mesh is stain resistant and extremely durable.  Both chairs are offered in high or mid back lengths. Prices will vary depending on style.

Buffet side tables are absolutely essential when designing a large conference room. Meetings with clients are quite often conducted over lunch. When entertaining clients within the office, it is important to have a buffet table to set up food, servicing utensils, napkins, and condiments. The buffet table will de-clutter usable work space on the conference table and keep messes to a minimum.

The buffet table is also great for setting up a coffee/tea station. Co-workers and clients alike will be able to enjoy a nice cup of coffee while in their meetings.

If you already have a conference table, check to see if there is a matching buffet table. Usually conference furniture is designed as a set with matching buffet table, filing cabinets, and presentation boards. This will eliminate the guess work of matching the right stain. If conference table does not have a matching buffet table, we recommend asking for stain samples of buffet tables you think might work. That way you can compare the stain sample against the table to see if the buffet table will work within your conference room.

In celebration of unique design and creativity, I would like to share with you three truly inspiring one of a kind conference tables.

First up is The Lego Conference Table designed by abgc Architects.  The Lego conference table was created for the creative advertising agency, Boys and Girls, in Dublin, Ireland.  Abgc Architects built the table top completely out of Lego blocks.
Next we look at the Wing Conference Table designed by MotoArt.  MotoArt created this table for Waco Aircraft Company.  This table is made using an antique wing of the biplane Waco 1930.  The conference table incorporated a bit of the company history with an art deco twist.

Finally, check out this James Watt Beam Engine Conference Table, designed by Andrew Chase.  Andrew Chase influenced by the great industrial revolution, created a conference table mainly out of car and truck transmission parts with gears, electric conduit and black pipe shaft and helium boiler tank.  The overlook is meant to resemble a stationary steam engine called the James Watt Beam Engine.   Like the Lego Conference Table, the James Watt Beam Engine Conference Table was also designed for an ad agency.

It appears ad agencies are the ideal customers for truly one-of-kind conference tables.
