A coffee table is more than just a surface for your magazines or a place to rest your drink, it’s the centerpiece of your living room. Whether you're redesigning your space or just upgrading a few furniture pieces, choosing the right coffee table can completely transform the look, feel, and function of your home.
In this guide, we'll explore everything you need to know about coffee tables from choosing the best size and style to understanding materials, colors, and added functionality. We'll also showcase 12 of our top coffee tables from Dream Decor’s collection that can redefine your living space with ease.
Understanding the Purpose of a Coffee Table
Before you begin browsing for the perfect coffee table, take a moment to consider its role in your living space.
The best coffee table should:
Enhance your room's visual appeal
Serve functional needs (e.g., storage, display, dining surface)
Complement your lifestyle and existing furniture
Measuring Your Space
Buying a coffee table without measuring your space first is a recipe for regret. Always start with your living room’s layout and the size of your primary seating.
Tips for finding the right fit:
The table should be about two-thirds the length of your sofa.
There should be 16–18 inches between the sofa and table for legroom.
Leave at least 30 inches between the table and TV console or other large furniture for walking paths.
For small spaces, consider nesting coffee tables or lift-top designs that double as storage. If you have a large sectional, a rectangular or oval coffee table may provide balance.
Popular Coffee Table Shapes & When to Use Them
Each table shape offers something different:
Rectangular Coffee Tables – Great for long sofas, plenty of surface area.
Round Coffee Tables – Ideal for smaller rooms or to soften boxy furniture.
Square Coffee Tables – Work well with modular seating.
Oval Coffee Tables – Blend space with soft edges, perfect for families.
