9 Centre Table Design Ideas To Change Your Living Room

Coffee tables or centre tables are not just to hold your books, or your coffee. Centre tables are a crucial part of your living room decor and the right table can often define and transform your seating area. Use these 9 tips to take your living room design to the next level by choosing the right centre table.

Living Room Centre Table Ideas

1. Choose a table with a strong visual presence to be a true centre of attention

Selecting the right size, shape and material of the centre table can add balance, symmetry and visual interest to the living room. Additionally, a centre table also acts as the focal piece which anchors the rest of the furniture thus creating a sense of cohesion and order.

2. Avoid dead spaces with a coffee table or nested tables

Every house has dead spaces or unused areas which could benefit from clever and practical decor ideas. Transform the awkward empty corner of your room into a cosy reading nook with an accent chair, some comfy sofa pillows and a coffee table. Or add a set of nested tables adjacent to the sofa to make it the perfect resting place for your gadgets and books.

3. Timeless stone and marble give your living room a classic feel

Homeowners crave marble because of its intrinsic simplicity and timelessness. When used in furniture it enhances the artistic sensibility of the home and reflects a contemporary and elegant aesthetic. What better way to create a stunning impression than by choosing a marble or stone centre table? You can opt for the classic ivory or white shade or the more colorful and bold shades with striations, speckles and lines – a marble or stone centre table will surely be a conversation starter.

4. Floating glass centre tables add a touch of the playful to your space

Charming and playful with a bit of illusion – that’s why we adore floating glass centre tables! Typically, a floating table with a glass top is designed with a clear glass top that is held in place by a few barely perceptible legs, creating the impression that the tabletop is floating in midair. Floating tables are not only a great space-saving hack but also a whimsical piece of statement furniture wherever you use them.

5. Sometimes two or three small tables are better than one

The more the merrier, is definitely true as far as multiple coffee tables are concerned! Not only do you get more surface area for displaying your favourite things but extra tables also mean an opportunity to create a style statement! Opt for two or more symmetrical tables or mix and match to create your own artful set-up of coffee tables. Consider combining a shorter and taller table, or even tables of different textures in terms of materials. Feel free to experiment on the basis of the space and decor of the room.

6. In cramped spaces small glass-top tables allow the room to breathe

A small glass-top coffee table is a great way to create an airy and spacious vibe in smaller rooms. While they are not ideal for displaying heavy objects or resting your feet, they shift focus on other elements like the rug underneath the table or the sofa set, making the room seem bigger and lighter.

7. Natural wood centre tables make your living room uniquely yours

Using furniture made of classic natural wood is great way to incorporate the outdoors in your home decor theme. Natural wood is a sturdy and durable material and is available in variety of shapes, sizes and finishes. It is an eco-friendly choice and makes the living room warm and inviting and adds a natural element to the space.

8. Polished glass centre tables are perfect for a bit of visual drama

If you enjoy entertaining friends at home, a polished glass centre table is ideal for displaying your elegant tea set and quirky vases. You may select from a variety of glass polish finishes, including frosted, tinted, patterned, beveled edge, and matt. Glass table tops need less upkeep in terms of cleaning and provide limitless style and décor options.

9. Layered glass tables are low profile display cases which no one can ignore

We saved the best for last! Modern, multipurpose and so stylish – layered glass tables with storage are perfect to keep your living room organized and functional. The storage unit can be concealed or positioned as a shelf unit underneath the glass table top. This storage unit may be utilized to hold magazines, remote controls, board games, or other objects within easy reach but out of sight.
