Coffee Tables

What should you put on a coffee table?

To style a coffee table, start by adding decorative items like a storage tray, candles, books or small plants to create an inviting and personalised look. You can mix textures and materials, such as wood, metal or glass, to create balance and interest. For a well-curated coffee table look, try layering items of different heights and shapes, ensuring enough space for coasters to place your cups on.

What is a coffee table book?

A coffee table book is a large, usually hard-covered book that is designed for display on a coffee table. It typically features high-quality images or illustrations, covering topics like art, fashion, travel or photography.

Where can you buy a coffee table?

You can buy a coffee table at Homebase, either online or in-store. Our range of coffee tables include wooden, modern, round, and coffee tables with storage, and are made to suit any living room.

How tall should a coffee table be?

A standard coffee table should ideally be about the same height as the cushions on your sofa, usually between 40 to 45cm (16-18 inches). This will ensure comfort and easy access when you and your guests are sitting.
