COFFEE TABLE, ELEGANCE AND FUNCTIONALITY IN THE LIVING ROOM

Coffee table is an indispensable piece of furniture in interior design projects for the living room. In addition to its functional role, the coffee table can boost the stylistic value of the interior, contributing to the personality and harmony of the space.

Coffee table selection criteria

To select the coffee table that fits perfectly in the living room, it is recommended to take into account the following aspects:

• Style

The style of the coffee table must fit into the interior design style that prevails in the room. Metal or glass models with straight lines and simple shapes, for example, are ideal for modern interior design styles.

• Color

Most of the time, the coffee table matches the color of the nearby sofa or armchairs. There is also the option of choosing a contrasting color to create a focal point in the room.

• Hight

The height of the coffee table is very important, being necessary to be correlated with the hight of the sofa. Thus, it is recommended that the coffee table be at the same level as the sofa or a few centimeters lower. In general, the standard height of such a table is 40-45 cm.

• Shape

The coffee table is available in different shapes: round, square, rectangular, hexagonal or other special shapes. Choose the shape of the coffee table according to the type of lines included in the interior design or an atypical shape to achieve an attractive visual impact. Also, depending on the available space, you can opt for a double coffee table, with the two components of different sizes, overlapping or side by side.

• Type

There are also coffee tables that can be converted into a larger or taller table, as well as coffee tables with integrated storage spaces. Considering the fact that, over time, the arrangement of the furniture in the room can be changed, you can choose a coffee table that is easy to transport, so that you can move it, if necessary, from the middle of the room to a wall, as a bedside table.

• Material

Wood remains a popular choice for coffee tables. Especially since modern technologies allow a multitude of patterns and textures. Equally attractive are the coffee tables with a metal structure and top made of glass, wood, marble or metal, as well as coffee tables with a mirror or made entirely of metal.

Coffee table is a versatile piece of furniture that adds personality to the living room, in accordance with family’s preferences and needs.
