Buying Guide

How to match an ottoman coffee table with a sofa?

An easy way to match an ottoman coffee table with a sofa is to have them in similar shades. If your sofa is gray, pick an ottoman coffee table in a slightly lighter or darker shade of gray. This way, it’ll seem as if they came together in one set. If your coffee table contrasts with your sofa, use throw pillows to tie the different colors together. For instance, red throw pillows with beige details can unify a beige sofa and a red ottoman coffee table. The clashing colors end up complementing each other and create a cohesive look with the help of the throw pillows.

Are ottoman coffee tables a good choice?

A contemporary ottoman coffee table is a fantastic choice for your living room because it's multi-functional. Not only does an ottoman coffee table provide a convenient spot to place food and drinks while you’re socializing, but it allows you to kick your feet up in comfort while watching TV as well.

To get the most out of your ottoman coffee table, invest in a tray that covers roughly half the surface area of the ottoman. Because these units have tufted, stylish tops, they’re not stable for balancing beverages. By placing a wooden tray over one half of the ottoman, you create a trendy, even surface where you can serve coffee and tea while leaving the other half of the coffee table free for putting your feet up.

Which materials are the best choice for a contemporary ottoman table?

The best material for a contemporary ottoman table depends on the aesthetic you’re looking for and the amount of traffic this piece of furniture will endure. Modern looks are easily achieved with durable and easy-to-care-for textiles, such as polyester microfiber.

Polyester is perfect for contemporary décor because it’s rugged, lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, and retains its shape. Linen adds a touch of class with a modern twist and is still resilient and breathable.

On the other hand, opulent leather is timeless. Leather provides that perfect balance between traditional and contemporary that’s hard-wearing and robust. The natural hypoallergenic qualities of leather make it a favorite in many modern spaces.
