A coffee table is an important piece of furniture in the living room. When we have guests over, we usually entertain them in the living room, and the coffee table also plays an important role in its decoration. The layout of the living room can be said to be the ‘heart of the home’, so we must be careful when arranging this room. Then, what kind coffee table should we choose to be placed in this space? This is what we are going to tell you today~
- Small round table
The round coffee table has no edges or corners, its shape is soft and the lines are smooth. It will not appear so cramped in the space, and creates a more dynamic effect.
The black and white solid colour metal coffee table is simple, classic and versatile. Putting it in the centre will not take up much space.
- Small square table
A simple small square table has sharp edges and corners. The black colour is the finishing touch in the overall space, but it is not too prominent. The choice of a coffee table should consider the matching of the sofa and surrounding furniture.
In a large space, choose a square coffee table that matches the sofa. The placement of a square coffee table is more in line with the habits of most people.
- Combination coffee table
2-3 coffee table combinations, with slight changes in style and size can break the dull feeling of a big coffee table in the space. In addition to the coffee table in the centre, a pot of green plants and a few books can be placed on top.
If the space is not big, you can consider putting a three-seat sofa- the small circular coffee table not only makes the whole space look more spacious, but a lot more lively.
Notes for selecting a coffee table:
- Colour
Wooden furniture with deep and steady colour is suitable for larger spaces.
- Space Size
The size of the space forms the basis for considering the size of the coffee table.
- Safety Performance
Since the coffee table is placed in a space where you often move around, special attention should be paid to the handling of the corners of the table, especially when there are children at home.
- Stable and Mobility
Generally speaking, a large coffee table next to the sofa cannot be moved frequently, so pay attention to the stability of the coffee table. However, a small coffee table placed next to the armrest of the sofa is usually used in a random manner, so you can choose a light and convenient style.
- Functionality
In addition to the function of acting as beautiful decoration, the coffee table also functions to carry tea sets, snacks, etc. Therefore, we must pay attention to its carrying and storage function.
The colour of the coffee table echoes with the sofas, curtains, carpets, and is very coordinated. If you want to place multiple coffee tables, you can choose in the same material, with different shapes and heights. When placed next to the sofa, it can act as a flower stand. The relationship between these three objects in the same space is closer, more layered and spatial. The coffee table is the heart of the living room. Whether it is round, square, or combined, there is always one suitable for you!
