Horizon White Oak Conference Table

The Horizon, a twelve-foot white oak conference table on an open trestle base, built for the boardroom that wants presence without noise.

The top is slip-matched Bavarian white oak over a torsion-box core, framed by a four-inch solid oak border. The grain runs across the width, so the surface reads as one calm, even plane rather than a run of boards.
The base is an open solid white oak trestle, set inboard so the length stays clear for the people seated. Power and data integrate into the top, and the base separates from it for delivery.
Built for the workplace

A considered collection. Every piece made to order.

Begin with one of our established forms or commission an entirely original design. Dimensions, wood selection, edge profile and base details are developed around your room and your seating plan.

Power and data

Integrated power and data are available and specified for most boardroom commissions. Power outlets, USB and USB-C charging, and HDMI and data ports can be set into flush or pop-up modules in the top, with cabling routed out of sight and coordinated with your IT or AV team. Power and data are quoted by configuration, separate from the base table.

The detail

A conference table is a working surface and a statement at the same time. It has to seat the right number of people comfortably, carry power and data without looking like it does, and still be the piece someone notices when they walk into the room.

Live edge or architectural

Both are built here. A live edge top keeps the natural edge of the tree and reads organic against a spare room. An architectural top is milled clean and square, quieter and more formal. The choice usually follows the room rather than the wood.

Construction

Solid slab tops are reinforced with steel C channels and attached with slotted connections so the wood can move with the seasons. Larger tops use a plywood torsion-box core with a solid hardwood border, which stays flat across a twelve-foot span where a solid slab would cup.

Sizing

Allow roughly twenty-four inches per seat. A twelve-foot table seats ten to twelve, fourteen feet seats twelve to fourteen, and we build longer. The base is always set inboard so nobody seated meets a leg.

For your project

We collaborate with clients, designers, and architects, providing shop drawings and finish samples and coordinating on materials, delivery access and installation.

The top and base travel separately. Our white glove delivery partners review the access path, assemble the table and set it in place on site.

Common questions

What clients ask before commissioning.

What is a custom conference table?

A conference table built to order for your boardroom rather than bought from a catalog. You choose the size, the wood, the base and the edge, and we build it from solid hardwood to seat your room exactly, with power and data integrated where you need it. No two are alike.

How much does a custom conference table cost?

Commissions begin at $8,000, with final pricing set by the slab, its species, length, width and figure, the base, and any integrated power and data. Every table is quoted around your room.

How many people does a conference table seat?

It is built to your room. Allow roughly twenty-four inches per seat: a twelve-foot table seats ten to twelve, fourteen feet seats twelve to fourteen, and we build longer.

Do you build live edge or architectural conference tables?

Both. For a natural-edge single slab, see our live edge conference tables. For an executive table on an industrial steel base with integrated power and data, see our boardroom tables. This page covers the full range.

Can power and data be integrated?

Yes, and most boardroom commissions include it. Power outlets, USB and USB-C charging, and HDMI and data ports can be set into flush or pop-up modules in the top, with cabling routed out of sight and coordinated with your IT or AV team.

What wood species do you use?

Black walnut, claro walnut, Oregon black walnut, monkeypod and blackened Bavarian oak all yield slabs wide and long enough for a conference table. Each board is selected for figure and shown to you before the first cut.

Can you size it to our boardroom?

Yes. Length, width, height, edge treatment and base are built to the dimensions and seating plan of your room. Describe the space and we size the table to fit it.

Do you work with architects, designers and facilities teams?

Yes. We collaborate with clients, designers, and architects, providing shop drawings and finish samples and coordinating on materials, delivery access and installation.

How is it delivered and installed?

The top and base travel separately, and our white glove delivery partners review the access path, assemble the table and set it in place on site. We build and ship nationwide.

Who builds it?

Every piece is built by Jerry Rodman, a furniture maker who has been in business for 11 years, and his team of four carpenters in our Chicago workshop. There is no production line and no outsourcing.
