Coffee Tables
The physical centrepiece of an informal space, a great coffee table will be more than just somewhere to place your mug. And these are some of the best we've found.
Chevron Oak Coffee TableCox & CoxIf you want a simple table that will sit in the middle of the room and has enough space for a couple of decorative books, a glass of wine, a plate of pasta or, possibly, your feet, this is the one. It’s 1m x 1m so it’s a good size.
Two Textured Nesting TablesCox & CoxOval tables can be hard to find and while nests fell out of fashion in the 80s, they are back as one of the most practical ways to keep more furniture in a small space. Again, they take a classic shape and use an unexpected material (burnished metal) to bring a contemporary edge to a classic idea.
Clarendon Storage Coffee TableCox & CoxIf space is tight then a storage coffee table will be a useful addition to any room. Use it to throw the toys inat the end of the day, or even some work items, if the living room has become your office in recent times. Alternatively it can house the cards and the board games or even the cocktail glasses. Perfect for when you need to shift gears from office to bar in a jiffy.
Portnall Coffee TableSoho HomeThe key to owning this is discipline. But if you can promise to only keep the current magazines and newspapers in the pocket then this is both beautiful and useful, and therefore William Morris would have approved. Also a handy place to chuck the remote so it doesn't get lost down the back of the cushions (just me?) although I suspect the odd cat might find their way in here as well.
