How to choose the right luxury coffee table?

When it comes to selecting the ideal coffee table, the journey begins with your sofa. It's a harmonious duet, and while they need not sing the same tune, they must compose a captivating melody together.

• If simplicity is your muse, explore monochrome or single-material marvels like wooden coffee tables or metal coffee tables, including a wide variety of Scandi oak coffee tables and monochrome coffee tables by HAY.
• Luxuriate in the opulence of marble coffee tables or enjoy the timeless elegance of a glass. In this area, Miniforms and Audo Copenhagen and Gubi all excel.
• In smaller quarters, an ottoman combined with a tray can double as a small coffee table.
• For those seeking both form and function, coffee tables with storage can hide ample treasures beneath the tabletop. Check out round Scandi coffee tables in by Woud.
• For those who prize versatility, a nesting coffee table or a coffee table with a reversible top can offer infinite possibilities.

Considering size and shape is crucial when selecting the ideal contemporary coffee table. In our collection, you'll find a delightful array of options to suit your needs, from sleek and small coffee tables for compact spaces to robust, sculptural masterpieces. Whether you're looking for a round, oval, square, or rectangular coffee table, or you're feeling adventurous with creatively contoured and asymmetrical designs, we've got you covered. Don’t forget to think about how the coffee table will fit in with your other furnishings, particularly sofas, end tables, standing lamps, and rugs and carpets.

What size should my coffee table be?

To achieve visual harmony, ensure your coffee table's length is no more than two-thirds of your sofa's expanse—often, less is more. Common coffee table widths span from 2–4 feet.

Height, on the other hand, is a matter of personal preference. As a guiding principle, your Scandi coffee table should align with or gently dip below your sofa's seating level. If you stick to this rule of thumb, it helps create a harmonious ensemble, and ensures drinks and other objects placed on the table are within easy reach.
