When selecting the best coffee table for your living space, consider the proportions of your sofa to ensure visual balance. As a guide, aim for a table approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa. The shape of your coffee table should also complement your layout:

Rectangular designs like the Jasper Occasional Table, offer generous surface space that’s accessible from all angles, ideal for larger living rooms or settings with modular sofas.

Round tables like the Heritage Coffee Table, introduce softness and promote natural movement within smaller spaces or when positioned between two perpendicular 2 Seater or 3 Seater sofas.

Oval or organic shapes like the Issho Coffee and Side Tables, pair beautifully with curved sofas, echoing their form and enhancing a sense of flow within the room.

Lightweight nesting designs like the Myco Side Table, offer flexibility in compact living rooms or open-plan layouts, making them a perfect choice for one person seated on a sofa or occasional chair.

When styling a round coffee table, cluster objects in varying heights at the centre to anchor the space. For rectangular designs, layer items in a loose line to guide the eye from end to end.

Combine decorative and practical elements such as books, candles, greenery, and sculptural vases, ensuring there is space left for practical items, such as a television remote, coasters and coffee cups.

Anchor your arrangement with an indoor rug that reflects the table’s shape, creating a sense of harmony and proportion.

Coffee tables don’t need to match perfectly. Mixing different timbers or finishes can bring a contemporary, curated edge to your living space.

Consider pairing two coffee tables of varying heights designed to cluster, such as the Heritage Coffee Tables or Issho Coffee Tables, which layer beautifully to create visual depth and provide ample surface space.

The standard height of a coffee table ranges between 350mm and 510mm (14–20 inches), though select designs may vary.

For optimal comfort and visual harmony, your coffee table should sit level with or slightly below your sofa seat cushions, approximately 20 to 50mm lower, ensuring drinks or books are always within reach.

Position your coffee table around 450 to 500 millimetres away from the sofa, offering ample legroom and comfortable movement around the space, ideal for casual dining or relaxed floor activities like board games.

King Living coffee tables are made to order in a variety of premium materials, crafted for durability and style. Finishes include:

Marble such as the Crescent Table or Venus Coffee Table. Luxurious and heat-resistant, ideal for interiors where you want to add a touch of elegance.

Timber such as Issho Coffee Table and Heritage Coffee Table. Offering warmth and versatility, available in signature timbers: Onyx, Smoked Oak, American Walnut and Natural Oak for a classic, timeless look.

Ceramic with a durable natural stone finish like Monument Coffee Table or Morpheus Occasional Table, are perfect for indoor-outdoor use, being UV-stable, stain-resistant and resilient to harsh weather conditions.

Glass such as the Jasper Occasional Table creates an illusion of space, ideal for opening up compact living rooms or achieving an airy, modern look.

For households with young children or pets, consider coffee tables without glass tops and sharp corners. Timber tables with rounded edges like Aspen Round Coffee Table, or lightweight designs like Myco Side Table with top finish options in timber, marble and leather, offer durability and style while maintaining safety.
