The ideal coffee table size depends on your sofa and room dimensions. As a general guide, your coffee table should be approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa and positioned about 45cm away from the seating. Our standard sizes range from 70cm to 3m in length, with various width options. The standard height is 45cm, which works well with most sofas, allowing you to comfortably reach items whilst seated. Since every table is made to order, we can create the perfect proportions for your specific living room layout.
A lower shelf provides valuable storage for magazines, books, remote controls and throws, helping keep your living room tidy. It also adds visual weight and substance to the table, creating a more grounded, finished look. The shelf doesn't obstruct floor-cleaning around the table. Many customers find the lower shelf essential for everyday organisation. However, if you prefer a more minimal aesthetic or have a smaller room where a lighter look is better, the table works beautifully without the shelf. The choice is yours based on your storage needs and style preferences.
For coffee tables, the 25mm or 42mm worktop thicknesses are most popular as they create pleasing proportions for a lower furniture piece. The 25mm option suits lighter, more contemporary aesthetics and represents the best value. The 42mm thickness offers a more substantial feel without being overly heavy for a coffee table. The super chunky 70mm worktop is occasionally chosen for very large coffee tables or when creating a matching set with a dining table. Consider the visual weight you want and how the table will balance with your other furniture.
Yes, absolutely. Many customers create a two-tone effect by choosing different finishes for the worktop and base. Popular combinations include a natural wood-toned worktop (Medium Oak, Dark Walnut) with a painted base (Sage Green, Soft White, Anthracite), or vice versa. This approach allows you to coordinate the coffee table with both your flooring and your soft furnishings, creating a cohesive look. You can also match your coffee table finish to other furniture pieces like side tables or TV units for a coordinated living room scheme.
You can choose between square legs for a clean, contemporary farmhouse look or turned legs for traditional character and decorative detail. Both styles use chunky 3-inch x 3-inch timber, ensuring stability and longevity. Square legs create straighter, more modern lines that suit minimalist interiors, whilst turned legs add visual interest and work beautifully in period properties or classic living rooms. Consider the style of your existing furniture and the overall aesthetic you're creating. Both options are equally sturdy and built to the same exacting standards.
