If you’ve ever worked in an office, then you’ve probably sat at a conference table before because, well, these tables are made for hosting conferences/meetings. A conference table is a long table that typically has a smooth flat top supported by one center base or four or more vertical legs. These tables are different from standard dining tables as they can accommodate 8+ people. Don't let the name fool you; their finishes can be luxurious (not just your average office table!), but they’re often simple in design.
