A coffee table is an essential piece of furniture for many living rooms, usually used to provide a practical surface for books, magazines and other decorative items. The living room table is not only a decorative piece of furniture but also serves as an ornament, storage or support for tired feet on a weekday evening. Style the coffee table with a matching candle dish with scented candles and other small ornaments or with coffee table books stacked on top of each other.

The versatility of the coffee table makes it a great addition to any home - from traditional settings to modern spaces, and is a piece of furniture that can be used for both style and functionality. Whether you're looking for something to place books and magazines on or simply as a place to set down your coffee cup, the coffee table is a great piece of furniture to decorate the living room with.

When choosing a coffee table, you should consider the material it is made of as well as its shape and size. Wooden or metal frames work well in most environments, while glass-topped coffee tables can add an elegant touch to modern interiors. Also, make sure that the coffee table you choose is the right size so that it doesn't take over your existing décor. With these tips in mind, you're sure to find the perfect coffee table for your home.

Living room table size

Figuring out the optimal size of your coffee table can be tricky. One tip is to always start from the size of the room and other furniture such as a sofa, armchair and TV bench that will share the space with the coffee table.

Another aspect to consider when choosing a coffee table is the function of the furniture. Think about whether you're looking for a neat, barely noticeable living room table that doesn't take up more space than necessary, or whether you prefer a coffee table that can combine function with decoration.

What height should the coffee table be?

When choosing the height of your coffee table, it's always a good idea to measure based on the height of the sofa, where the standard measurement is often about 45 cm. In this way, you indirectly create balance and ensure that the coffee table has a comfortable height in relation to the seat height of the sofa.

A lower coffee table is sophisticated, but less practical if you want to use the coffee table as a dining table. Here, of course, the height determines whether it is suitable for the intended purpose or not.

Coffee tables in different shapes

At NO-GA we offer a wide selection of living room tables in various colours and shapes. Depending on the feeling you want to create in a room, the shape of the coffee table sets the tone and impression. If you are looking for a more organic, smooth and soft effect, a round coffee table or oval coffee table is what you should go for.

The rectangular coffee table or square coffee table with its clear lines symbolises a classic design language. If the living room is furnished with sofas of a larger character, rectangular coffee tables are suitable. The same principle applies if you have placed two sofas opposite each other.

Wooden, glass, stone or marble coffee tables?

Coffee tables in various types of wood offer a classic style that can range from traditional or rustic to a more contemporary design. Wooden tables bring a natural warmth and texture to your living room without overpowering the rest of your decor.

Glass top coffee tables are a great choice if you're looking for something more modern with their sleek look and reflective surface. Marble coffee tables create an impressive presence due to their luxurious texture and offer a timeless look that stands out in any setting. A stone or travertine coffee table can make any living room feel exclusive.

Which colour and material you choose for your coffee table is individual and depends entirely on how the environment in which they are placed is decorated, as well as the feeling you are looking for. Another principle to follow is to consider your needs and tastes. Remember that different materials give different impressions.

Wooden coffee table

A wooden coffee table has a classic, timeless look that adds warmth and character to any room. Its natural aesthetic lends itself to many different styles. With a variety of shapes and sizes available, you can easily find a design that suits your needs and tastes.

Wood types such as oak and walnut are commonly used for coffee tables. Decorating with a wooden coffee table that varies in its appearance adds a natural touch and look to the living room. In addition to oak and walnut, we should not forget the timeless material teak, which with the right treatment can last for many years to come.

Marble coffee table

Exuding elegance and style, marble coffee tables are a great addition as they provide a classic look that goes well with almost any style. The natural beauty of marble brings a stately feel to your living room, and in addition to their aesthetic appeal, marble coffee tables also have practical benefits. Their heavy weight makes them remarkably stable, keeping them in place even on an uneven surface.

Marble can have a varied appearance which in itself creates life and dynamism in the room. A coffee table with its unique marbling can characterise an entire room and add that extra touch if desired. Whether you're looking for something modern, classic or somewhere in between, a marble coffee table is sure to make your room look amazing.

Stone and travertine coffee tables

A stone coffee table is robust and tasteful, adding an extra dimension and texture to any setting.
Travertine's natural beauty and durability make it a great choice for those who appreciate high quality furniture. Its unique colour palette ranges from creamy whites to warm browns with a texture that is slightly rough and porous, giving it a rustic look that pairs well with different furniture styles.

Whether you choose travertine, granite or another type of stone, there is no doubt that a stone coffee table will be the perfect centrepiece for your living room.

Glass coffee table

A glass coffee table brings a sophisticated look to your living room. It is not only aesthetically pleasing but also has many functional benefits. Its glass top can help open up smaller spaces and let in more natural light. It is easy to clean and does not trap dirt or dust as some other materials tend to do.

What's more, because glass is durable and scratch-resistant, you don't have to worry about damaging your table when redecorating or hosting guests. With its timeless design and endless possibilities, a glass coffee table is an ideal option for any home.
