Buying Guide
A beautiful coffee table to hold your cups and plates while you relax in front of the TV is a great addition to a living room. With different shapes, sizes and styles to choose from, it can be overwhelming trying to decide which are the best items of furniture for your home. Let's consider some of the available designs for coastal coffee tables and perhaps you'll find the right one for you.
What are the pros and cons of different coffee table shapes?
Coffee tables are available with various shapes of tabletop, so before you think about anything else, read about the different shapes and consider which one you think you'd like.
- Square coffee table: A square table is ideal if you have other square-shaped furniture in the room and want to continue with this trend. Square coffee tables are a great way to ensure each part of the room has an equal amount of the table available.
- Rounded coffee table: Rounded coffee tables can be less effective when it comes to saving space than square coffee tables since they take up more space than the space which actually benefits you. However, this is a softer shape of table and is suitable for traditional homes or those which are aiming for a warmer effect in the living room.
- Rectangular coffee tables: If you have a long sofa, a rectangular coffee table is a good choice of shape for the room. This means that rather than having to move the coffee table depending on who is using the sofa and where people are sat, the table is readily available whenever it is needed.
- Hexagonal tables and other shapes: Although the three shapes above are the most popular ones you'll see, there are others available too. The hexagonal shape doesn't suit everybody's tastes, but it's an option to consider if you want something a little different.
What are the best materials for coffee table tops?
Some of the best materials which are used for the coffee table tops include:
- Glass: A popular material for many table tops, it's a light effect which is delicate yet elegant and suits a lot of living rooms. Glass is easy to clean too, which is one of the reasons many homeowners choose this material. Glass tops are most often seen on wooden frames and in a rounded style, although they may also be found in hexagonal or other shapes and with a brass or metal border around the table top.
- Wood: You can find wooden coastal coffee tables which are varnished or glossy, or you can consider the more rustic style which may be made from upcycled wooden planks or hardwood which has been allowed to weather slightly for effect.
- Glass and wood: A combination of both glass and wood can often be seen when shopping around for coastal coffee tables. This may be a driftwood base for a natural feel, followed by a classy and elegant glass top. Alternatively, you may find glass tables which have a wooden border, or wooden legs which have glass surrounding them for extra gloss and finish.
