Initial Concept

The concept for the Magnus rectangular dining table was connection - a statement piece of furniture in the Scandinavian style that could easily accommodate large family gatherings, the extra space for that unexpected guest (or two) at dinner time, and a space to share stories and create memories.

As a father and son founding team, David and Adam Light understood the need to have a beautiful table around which everyone could gather and simply be together. The initial idea for the Magnus rectangular  dining table combines this need with their proud tradition of valuing the authenticity of materials to craft quality furniture, designed for living. 

Sourcing of Materials

At IconByDesign our aim is to produce sustainable furniture. The solid American oak which makes up the bulk of the Magnus rectangular dining table  is sourced from American forests which embrace sustainable principles - meaning the wood is sustainably harvested, works to restore the ecosystem, implements a replaning process, undertakes consistent environmental monitoring, and respects the land rights of indigenous peoples.

Oak is also used because it's hardy and it lasts - it has a natural strength which makes it ideal for the interior home environment. Unlike veneered furniture, there's less damage from wear and tear so you don't have to throw it out to replace it with something equally replaceable. 

Our solid wood furniture is a provider of carbon storage and therefore has a positive effect on the planet by containing carbon, and its regrowth in sustainable managed forests adds to the carbon emission reduction. 

By crafting our solid American oak furniture, such as the Magnus rectangular dining table, from wood we are doing the best we can on the planet - making pieces that last through the generations and rejecting the tread of flat-pack, cheap, disposable, replaceable veneer furniture. 

What to Furnish With

The Magnus range from IconByDesign was designed to work seamlessly together so we recommend combining your rectangular dining table with the matching Magnus dining chairs and sideboard for additional storage. Style the Magnus rectangular dining table with simple accessories which incorporate form and function - tablecloths and runners with natural fibers to add texture, natural wood fruit bowls to add beauty and practicality. 

To ensure everyone has a seat at your table, the Magnus solid oak dining chairs are the perfect choice. Its curved seat is built for ergonomic comfort, blending the relationship between soft curves and the clean lines with a refined elegance contributed by the angled legs. Enjoy relaxing for a few minutes longer than planned over morning coffee, or forget how quickly time passes over a meal with friends as the Magnus’ dining chair’s gentle, smooth design transports you to a tranquil space. Designed for effortless living, the soft, warm tones inspired by the timeless Scandinavian and Mid-century modern furniture movements will complement your home for decades to come.

It channels movements from Scandinavian furniture and mid-century modern furniture that inspire calm, elegant spaces. The mid-century modern media unit is made of high-quality American oak for durability and functionality. Easily keep everything in its place, with two sliding-door cabinets and three classic drawers.
