  1. An artistic arrangement of articles on a table.
    • 2009 February 5, Penelope Green, “A Girl World Closes, and Fans Mourn”, in New York Times:
      Most commenters linked to their own blogs or Flickr pages, and slideshows of their own homes, each bearing the distinct Domino imprimatur (much throwing of sheepskin, chic-cute tablescapes and Lucite furniture).
    • 2025 March 4, Marina Hyde, “It’s With Love, Meghan – not just a TV show but a landmark piece of art. And not in a good way”, in The Guardian:
      Sorry to press an unmodernised yet perfectly adequate word into action, but of course all this stuff is perfectly nice. It’s nice if the table is laid nicely, it’s lovely if the flowers are lovely, it’s caring of you to make people feel cared for, whatever that really means. (I wonder if the truly selfless tablescape actually exists – Meghan’s entire MO feels desperately “compliments to the hostess”.)
