What is a German corner?

German corner is a mix of tables, chairs and bench commonly used in dining rooms, although it is also often found on balconies and outdoor spaces. 

Generally L-shaped, the German corner offers greater comfort when compared to a regular table, in addition to the possibility for more people to sit around the table. However, nowadays, the German corner has gained new formats, such as straight and round models.

German corner, as you can imagine, originated in Germany. There, it was common for this type of composition between tables, chairs and benches to be used in commercial establishments, such as snack bars and restaurants. But it didn’t take long to fall in love with everyone’s residential projects, mainly because of the reasons we’ll mention below, check it out.

Why have a German corner?

Mother’s heart

German corner is like a mother’s heart, there’s always room for one more. Unlike a conventional table with chairs, the German corner offers more seating possibilities, as the benches have no space demarcation.

So, even if you have a table with only four seats, with the German corner it is possible to seat up to six or seven people around the table.

Value small spaces

The German corner has regained space in interior decorations precisely because it favours small environments.

This is because the German corner bench is used leaning directly against the wall, requiring a smaller usable area, not to mention that it also provides more space for circulation, leaving the environment with a clean and less “turmoil” aspect.

Another advantage of the German corner, in this sense, is that the table can be leaned against the wall, with the bench under it, while it is not being used.  This configuration helps to gain even more space in the dining room.

Fits in any decor

German corner has reinvented itself a lot over the years. That classic model, in solid wood and upholstery, gave way to more minimalist and modern versions.

Nowadays it is possible to find German corner models in different colours, shapes and sizes, capable of adapting to the most different decorative styles, ranging from classic to contemporary, with room for rustic, vintage and countless other styles.
