Bench length
A bench should stop short of the table ends. The rest of the note is how we do that in the studio.
Leave room to walk around. Two people need less length than three, and the table sets that number. People stand up from a bench by leaning. A heavy bench that will not shift a little is awkward. A fixed one belongs against a wall.
A bench as long as the table blocks the path at the corners.

Bench length is a note from the studio, not a rule for every house. The pieces in this edit were finished with this habit in mind.
If a piece you have does not match the note, send a question with the name of the piece. The reply is more useful than a general rule.
An inquiry is the way to ask. Nothing on this page is a charge.
Keep the habit small enough that it happens. That is the care these pieces were made for.
