Coffee Tables to Anchor Your Living Room

The coffee table is the natural centre of a living room, where morning coffee, evening drinks and everyday life come together. The right one pulls a seating arrangement into a cohesive whole and gives the space a sense of intention.

Our coffee tables span timber, marble and glass, in round, rectangular and storage styles to suit Australian living rooms of every size. Whether you want a sculptural statement or a practical piece with hidden storage, there is a design here to sit beautifully among your sofas and armchairs.

Choosing the Right Coffee Table for Your Space

Aim for a table height close to your sofa seat, generally 40 to 45cm, and around two thirds the length of the sofa for a balanced look. Allow roughly 40 to 45cm between the table and the seating so there is room to pass by and reach a drink. Beyond proportion, let the shape and material follow the room.

• Round tables to soften a room and ease movement in compact spaces
• Rectangular tables to pair with a long sofa or sectional
• Timber for warmth and a hard wearing surface
• Marble or stone for a refined statement
• Glass to keep a small room feeling open

Styles to Suit Your Space

A solid timber table brings warmth to relaxed and coastal interiors, while a marble top adds quiet luxury to a contemporary scheme. Pair yours with plush armchairs, ground the setting with rugs and add display space with bookcases and shelving to complete the room.
