Choose the Right Size

Before purchasing, measure your sofa and the available floor space. As a general guide, the table should be approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa. For example, a 210 cm sofa will usually look balanced with a table measuring around 140 cm.

Leave approximately 40–45 cm between the sofa and table. This allows comfortable movement while keeping drinks and other items within easy reach. You can mark the dimensions on the floor with painter’s tape to see how much space the product will occupy.

Select the Best Height and Shape

The tabletop should generally sit level with the sofa cushions or slightly lower. A design that is too high may dominate the seating area, while one that is too low may be less convenient for everyday use.

The best shape depends on your room layout:

• Round designs suit compact rooms and homes with children.
• Rectangular designs pair well with standard two-seat and three-seat sofas.
• Square designs work best in spacious living rooms.
• Oval designs provide a long surface with softer edges.

A round coffee table is especially useful in a small apartment because its curved edges support easier movement.

Choose a Suitable Material

Timber adds natural warmth and works well in contemporary, Scandinavian, coastal and traditional interiors. Use coasters and clean spills promptly to protect the surface.

Marble and faux-marble finishes create an elegant focal point and complement neutral upholstery and metallic accents. Glass designs allow light to pass through, helping smaller rooms feel brighter and more open.

Always review the product care instructions before ordering. The right material should suit your interior style, daily routine and maintenance preferences.

Consider Storage

A coffee table with storage can help keep your living room organised. Drawers, open shelves, hidden compartments and lift-up tops provide useful space for remotes, chargers, books and other small items.

Before buying, check that drawers or lifting mechanisms can open fully without hitting the sofa or nearby furniture.

Match It With Your Sofa

Your table does not need to match your sofa exactly. Contrasting finishes can make the room more visually interesting. Light timber works well with dark upholstery, faux marble complements neutral fabrics, and glass can highlight a decorative rug.

A large sofa can support a heavier design, while a slim sofa with raised legs usually looks better with a lighter frame.
