Just moved into a new office and trying to figure out the layout before the conference room gets finalized—How far should a conference table be from the wall?
A conference table should typically be placed at least 48 inches (about 1.2 meters) away from any wall.
This standard clearance ensures there is enough space for people to pull out chairs and sit comfortably, while also allowing others to walk behind without disruption.
In smaller rooms, a minimum of 36 inches (about 0.9 meters) may be acceptable, but it reduces comfort and mobility.
For premium conference room design, 48–60 inches is recommended to improve circulation and overall spatial flow.
