The coffee table is the reference point in spaces such as the living room or the living room. Not only does it participate in a functional way, but it also contributes aesthetically, trying to blend properly with the other elements. In this way, harmonization in the decoration is sought, positively contributing other ornaments that we place on the table and that can serve as a compliment.
ROMANTIC
And natural. This composition is perfect for a pair of coffee tables (nest type) in wood and seventies design. A vase with fresh flowers and some candles.
THE TOUCH OF WOOD
Candles and books on a white coffee table. The irregular wooden tray breaks monochromatism. Some mini arrangements of natural flowers cut in a small glass. An irregularly shaped piece, such as the tray, breaks the linearity of square or rectangular tables. The reform of this house was carried out by the architects Armando Álvarez Torno and Ana Isabel Arribas Casado.
ALWAYS NATURAL ARRANGEMENT
Or at least it seems like it. If they are natural flowers better if the arrangement is artificial unless it is well achieved. Here, an original coffee table made with an old iron radiator and a glass top. Above, a natural green arrangement in a basket, a plate, and a bowl. The architect who signed this project is Kika Estrellas from Bomba.
MINIMAL
Two designs, one above the other, of different dimensions. Books, some cut sheets, and a couple of cans.
FULL COLOR
Matching the geometric shapes of the rug, two side tables as a coffee table. Only colored glass pieces. At one end, books stacked in order and a letter on them. The interior design is signed by Teresa Abaitua.
SMALL DETAILS
Vases with a touch of color, books, a deco doll, and a miniature design chair. These tables are containers too.
MAXI TABLES
When the table is large it is important to decorate it well so that it does not look “deserted”. Here are two rectangular tables together, which can be placed depending on the needs of the meeting. On it, books and magazines, a box (perfect for storing the controls of audiovisual equipment), a cage with a candle, and some flower arrangements.
FLOWERS, BOXES, AND CANDLE HOLDERS
Circular table, everything in the center. Flowers, candle holders, a story, and boxes. If the table has a lower shelf, take the opportunity to place magazines or reading books.
ROUNDED LINES
Circular table and ornaments with rounded lines and low height. Take into account the height of the elements that decorate your coffee table because the higher the more unstable. When passing near them, they can fall.
ON THE WHOLE TABLE
A pallet with wheels and a simple decoration: books, flowers, and a tray. The ornaments are distributed to occupy the entire surface of the table, they are not grouped.
WITH DRAWER
Everything in sight but preserved from dust. Tables with drawers under the envelope serve to organize your secrets. But with the glass envelope, it is a perfect display for travel souvenirs, inherited items, collections …
IN-TRAY
Grouping decorative items on trays are handy for clearing the tabletop in no time.
MAXI FLORAL ARRANGEMENT
A maxi flower arrangement on the table is always gimmicky. A way to bring color and enthusiasm to the place.
SEVERAL TABLES
In a composition of several tables, distribute the decorations. You can leave one of them clearer, as a support surface, but never “bare”.
