how to choose a coffee table.

Unlike lounging with your latte on a Sunday morning, choosing the right coffee table for your living room isn’t exactly a de-stressing activity. There are endless different styles, shapes, designs and details, and settling on just one can feel a bit overwhelming.

Luckily, there are some general design rules to help guide you along the way. When it comes to size, your coffee table should be at least half the length of your sofa and no more than two thirds. It should also sit at roughly the same height as the seat of your sofa or armchair – after all, kicking your legs up should never be a struggle.

Wondering what shape to go for? If you have a standard three-seater sofa, then a rectangular, oval or circular coffee table is probably your best option. It makes sure that every seat has equal access to whatever nibbles, drinks or party games are adorning your table. A square coffee table is ideal if you have lots of space, and gives you plenty of opportunity to create a standout styling moment too.   

Materials are another factor to give some thought. Natural wood finishes tend to work best with rustic, nature-inspired and modern country interiors, whereas metals and painted tables fit better with contemporary and clean minimalist designs.

It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of decorating a space, but don’t forget to spare a thought for your practical needs. Do you have small children? Avoid glass and sharp edges. Got lots of cables, controllers and remotes that need stowing away? Go for a coffee table with built-in storage drawers. Tight on space? Look for nested options that slot into each other for tidy storage.

what to put on a coffee table.

No matter where you fall on the minimalist-maximalist spectrum, a bare coffee table is a universal no-no. As they become the centrepiece in most living rooms, they offer the ideal spot to showcase your personality and style through accessories. From single sculptural moments to layers of alluring accessories, there are endless ways to style your new coffee table.

Start by settling on where you’re going to place each ornament on the table. If it’s square or rectangular, either one central vignette or something different in each ‘quadrant’ of your coffee table works great. Keep in mind how much room you’ll need for day-to-day items like coffee cups and books. Circular coffee tables look best with decorations in the middle, or pushed far to one side if you’d like to keep the centre clear.

Next, get your selection of ornaments together. The choice is entirely down to you and your personal style, but potted plants, coffee table books, candles and flower vases are all timeless choices. Just make sure to choose a few accessories of different heights to create a sense of balance and visual interest.

Next, try your hand at some arrangements. Step back and admire your design from all angles, snap a few pictures and ask for a second opinion if you feel like you’ve been looking at it too long to make judgements. Decorating is an ongoing process, so keep your cool and experiment until you find something you’re happy with – no doubt it’ll evolve down the line.
