They’re the workhorse of your living zone, forming the perfect perch for a morning cuppa and a glass of wine at night. They’re where you pop your must-read book or latest glossy magazine, lay out a nibbly spread for guests, and, let’s be honest, share plenty of family meals without making it anywhere near the dining room.
Coffee tables are the multi-tasking heroes that deserve their centre-stage role in our lives, and that’s why it’s well worth investing in something stunning.
Here are 15 of our favourites for your consideration...
GlobeWest Amara Round Leg Coffee Table
Bring a bit of Mediterranean glamour into your living room with this classic circular marble coffee table with rich veins of dark blue and hints of rose swirling in the gleaming white. Sometimes keeping it simple and stylish really is the right move.
Fenton & Fenton Exhibitionist Coffee Table
If you’re feeling flashy and want to try something out of the norm, we adore this transparent art piece crafted from Lucite that lets all your decor pieces shine. Opt for the pink base option to really make a statement.
En Gold Arena Table
If you want to make a sculptural statement, this beautifully hand-crafted limestone piece looks like it’s a fragment of an ancient Greek temple that’s been transported by the gods to your home. We love the stepped shelf that wraps itself around it, a unique touch.
McMullin & Co Theo Coffee Table
Speaking of wearing your influences on your sleeve, there’s a touch of the Matisse about the free-flowing globular stands of this gorgeous coffee table, but with a space-age twist, thanks to them being crafted in chrome. Holding a circle of glass aloft, it’s a class act.
RJ Living Reflect Coffee Table
We love the mirror image flip going on here in this deceptively simple European oak coffee table. Two sturdy legs support the solid timber top, each with a generous arch cut into them. One’s facing up, and the other’s heading down. You know it’s the right way to go.
Lounge Lovers Jaque Terrazzo Coffee Table
The grand return of terrazzo has been having a moment that shows no signs of slowing down, and rightfully so. There’s something so chic about its artisanal Mediterranean vibes, and the stone-flecked top fits perfectly with the sleek powder-coated base in contrasting black.
En Gold Paradis Coffee Table, Moreno
Nature flows in the veins of this striking stone coffee table. Moreno stone emanates organic beauty and offers a sense of fluidity to the space. That unique feel carries through to the gracious curves of the work’s top and its pedestal legs.
Temple & Webster Hamptons Coastal Coffee Table
If you’ve been following our blog for a while, you’ll know we love to bring the serenity home with the Hampton’s coastal look. The easiest way to achieve that bliss is to invest in a sparkling white wood coffee table like this that offers abundant storage options too.
Lounge Lovers Noel Ottoman
You know what’s even better than a coffee table that sidles up to your sofa? A swish design that doubles up as a seat too! That’s why we’re head over heels for this oak veneer piece that hugs a linen blend ottoman, so you can pop down on it for your morning coffee.
GlobeWest Benjamin Ripple Square Coffee Table
Sometimes it’s the most demure design detail that makes the biggest impact. Like the pleasingly undulating ripple of the stylish stands on this dark oak veneer coffee table. They make the perfect partners to the gracefully curved corners on the tabletop.
Target Atticus Coffee Table
We love a bit of luxury here at Metricon, but you don’t have to fork out a fortune to achieve the perfect look for your lounge room. With its classic rectangular silhouette, Target’s Atticus coffee table is a brilliant example of the fail-proof design maxim: keep it simple.
Interiors Online Odeon Coffee Table Olive
Our designers love adding a splash of colour to any room, with Cool Matcha one of this year’s biggest trends. We dig that leafy vibe, so this olive-coloured coffee updating the neo-classical form is an ideal fit for green-thumbed fans who want to bring the outside in.
Interior Secrets Tommie Set of Coffee Tables
“To make a dream come true, just takes two,” sang Marvin Gaye and Kim Weston, and we couldn’t agree more. We were immediately drawn to this funky little duo of nestling round coffee tables with a matte black finish and a fine wood grain veneer.
