Decide on the size
As with the shape, you will need to determine the size you need. The height of height of a coffee table is important. It should be no less than 3-6 centimeters from the seat of your sofa. The standard height for a table is 40-45 centimeters and should match well with a typical size sofa. A taller sofa requires a taller table, one with a height of 62-67 centimeters. The higher table will also be more convenient if you entertain a lot, as it will be easier for guests to place a glass or plate.
Choose the shape
As you design the plan for your living room, think about the best shape for the space. Do you have children or pets? Is it a large room or is it small and cramped?

Use a rectangular rectangular and leaving 30 inches between the TV console and coffee table will give you the right amount of walking space between the two pieces. A rounded one gives a little more room to walk through, as you will be moving away from the TV console. The shape of the rug should also be taken into consideration. If the sofa is angular and the rug is rectangular, an oval or round addition brings a soft touch to the ensemble.
What material?
