Coffee table help!

2 years ago

We have an L Shaped couch and I need a coffee table. Was reading rectangle coffee tables look best with L shape couches but I’ve seen one online I like, only it’s round. If I order it and it doesn’t look right it’ll cost to return it and it already has a delivery charge so I need to be confident it’ll work. Photos are of room, grateful for any thoughts!

Rectangle. You need the length to enable people sitting on the longest part of the sofa to reach it.

I have a corner sofa in my caravan on the coast. I’ve attached an image of it to give you an idea.

I agree rectangular would look better, but circular could work.

Area Rug & Coffee Table Help

I absolutely agree (& appreciate) all advice! I was afraid of being too detailed but the help I've received has given much guidance. I'm pointing out a couple key things in hopes of helping me out even more building on these great tips. Included before photos (we have lived here for 9mo now so some is my poor choices/coupled w/financial patience+ happy decisions! Ready to tie it together & LIVE w/out mismatch/incomplete "one day" still lingering. Before: So much blue pulled out more in fireplace/kitchen backsplash & did not like. It's more gray when not accented so that was 1st intention. I loved the blue loveseat but wanted something more practical(& less blue)..Green replaced it but seemed small (although matched main sofa)Added wall frame behind & knew coffee table would eventually not be larger than green couch. It's comfortably laid on (as if a chaise lounge) so turned out practical. The rug is absolutely too small which I worried about. We purchased on our own & after curtain fiasco's, settled with it actually "going" okay. The blue ikat chair was also going to be a (sad) sell considering it's comfy & swivels. Realized it would go very unique IF my rug were not the same. Please note: I think swapping the orange/ivory couch pillows to tie in the new pieces would help? Larger, more neutral area rug but COMFY. Smaller, square & practical coffee table have been big concerns but thanks to you all.... *** I think a square/tufted ottoman top, "bench coffee table" may be solution? Possibly with gold/antique silver legs to match end tables? or something white washed/gray weathered-- not TOO farmhousey--- to tie in mirror & "bar" shelves. Rug must be MUCH larger but still at loss for exact type/color. (afraid I will overdue it... OR that a neural style will end up uncomfortable AND orangey/outdoor looking.) **Kitchen bar stools are also going to be replaced as they don't go well with space so suggestions for those more than welcome! Large space between dining table windows is terrifying. Will take time I am afraid.Needs to be just right for blank 10FT+ of space! Eventually raising window curtain height above actual windows would make the space seem larger & continue the theme of French Country Farmhouse meets a COMFY, Eclectic Minimalism? I am to the point of *wishing* I could just hire someone!!!

Rebecca thanks for the help! Kinorigo looks amazing. They have a black and white dining table that is just beautiful. Would be great if they also did that as a coffee table. They only offer a bespoke service? Sound a bit scary! Can you pm me a price estimate if you've had something similar previously? I'm currently torn between the Platner, the pedrera by gubi and the 'my moon' table my morose!! The gubi is probably my favourite just because of its classic simplicity but it might get a bit lost.

Sorry for the up and thx for the idea! I got the usual coffee table. If you got a coffee pot nearby, sometimes it's really hard to clean it up! After my wife's struggling I've found this article which is helpful for cleaning and comfort ideas! Take care and all the best!

Gorgeous table and FAB start. Books for height, a stack of books and a green plant/fresh flowers. Also some height will be good, you do not have to go too high but something tall will do wonders for a table. Here's a picture of mine (sorry it is from Christmas time) but it will give you an idea. The pine is replaced with a fern or some fresh cut flowers, the bowl is always there to coral my manicure set and odds and ends. I found another that shows it styled last spring, sadly both shots are a bit useless as they are so tight you cannot really see much, I nabbed them off my social media postings, but you can see the base of stacked books, skull, candles are a constant then few things change seasonally.

A circular one could work as long as it’s big enough. Here’s mine (not quite circular but…).

You can always opt for a nest of two round tables so there's plenty of room for all people sitting on the couch, it can be a nice way of softening up the straight lines of the couch, a bit of balance between masculine and feminine lines.
