The name might seem unfamiliar, but you've already seen German corner dining. It's a dining table setup where the table doesn't center around the surroundings but instead rests against a wall or corner.

However, simply pushing the table and chairs to the wall isn't enough for it to work well.

Inspiring Layout Ideas for German Corner

The main feature of the German corner is that chairs, typically mounted to a wall(s), are replaced with a bench or sofa. In this case, it could be a straight, corner, or U-shaped model. The shape and number of seats depend on the table size and room dimensions. As a result, it creates a very comfortable dining area that saves space compared to traditional table arrangements.

Extremely popular in German restaurants and bars (hence the name), this table layout is once again trendy today. Very charming, modern, and cozy — an excellent solution for those short on space. However, it can also be used in spacious rooms. While it can be assembled from ready-made furniture, the best results we see are in planned projects.

What Furniture Is Needed for a German Corner Layout?

A German corner setup mainly consists of four elements:

a bench resting against a wall(s);
a table;
chairs; and
seating cushions and/or pillows.

However, to make the project more comfortable with an attractive decor, you can add wall paintings and bookshelves with books and ornaments. A pendant light will bring style and proper lighting to the room.

Here are several ideas that will inspire you to create your own:
