Coffee Table Tips & Trends

Coffee tables come in all shapes and sizes: rectangular, square, oval, round... harper rectangular coffee table So, that means there are many fun things to consider when searching for a table that’s just right for your room! Placement No matter what type of coffee table, it’s not meant to be right in the center of the room (or so close to the sofa that you can barely get by). The general rule of thumb is to place the table about 18 inches away from the edge of the sofa. This allows enough space to easily move onto the sofa and close enough to place your drink down, without having to get up! Height Coffee tables vary in height, so the rule here is to have it sit about 1-2 inches lower than the sofa. The round theon coffee table is a perfect complement to a sectional sofa, offering an antique brass frame and unique texture. Organization Do you like to keep a clean look and have a place to hide your remote controls and magazines?
