The side table is a small but effective part of the living room arrangement. The right choice makes a big difference both in terms of function and aesthetics. Here are 4 points to consider.

1. Height

The ideal side table height should be equal to or 2-5 cm above the seat cushion height of your armchair or sofa. This allows you to comfortably place your coffee cup or book without stretching.

2. Size and form

In small living rooms, round and organically shaped tables provide a more fluid look. In larger spaces, double sets or models with magazine racks add functional richness.

3. Material harmony

Establishing a textural dialogue with your existing furniture is important. Rattan creates an organic balance with wood, while metal and glass create an elegant contrast.

4. Multifunctionality

Side tables with magazine racks offer both storage and serving solutions. Curved models can also be used as stools when needed.
