How to style a centre table for a chic living room?

Living rooms are the liveliest part of a house and also the most attractive. Centre tables can form the focal point of attraction in any living room, if chosen and styled correctly. All designs of centre tables do not match all designs of seating furniture. If paired correctly your living room can look like an upscale chic living room from an interior décor catalogue.

When buying a centre table keep in mind the available area in your living room. A centre table should be placed in the middle of the room connecting the sofas or couches. Also there should be enough space to stretch legs and move around the room. So measure the space and buy accordingly.

The size of your centre table should complement the seating furniture in the room. Ideally it should be at least two third of the largest seat or even less. The table top should be big enough to place a centerpiece, coffee mugs and tea cups.

If you have a bigger living room, you can buy two identical centre tables and place them end to end to fill up the gap between the seats. The height of your table should also be lower than the sofa or the couch, so that you can reach for your coffee mug easily. If you want to buy a centre table online, be sure to check the measurements properly.

The shape of your centre table should be also in sync with the shape of your sofa. For a rectangular sofa, a rectangular centre table will be ideal so that it is accessible by all the occupants of the seating. For an L-shaped seating, a rectangular table will be the best option as well. For couches or smaller sofas, round, oval or square tables can work very well. Oval and round tables occupy less space. They are ideal for cramped up spaces and smaller rooms. To style a small area, you can arrange ottomans and upholstered stools for some extra sitting.

Centre pieces are crucial to deck up a centre table for drawing room. You can opt for beautiful vases, handmade artifacts, colourful ashtrays, candle holders and potted plants.

When choosing a centre table, be sure to match it with the décor, mood and setting of the living room. Keep in mind the colours and hues of the room. You will not want your table to stand out too much but blend in beautifully to complement the décor. It is better to match the material with other furniture of the room.

Centre tables usually come in teak, metal, fibre, rattan, upholstered and glass. Pick your choice to match your home décor. For example a teak table has a universal charm and usually works with all décor. But a metal table in geometric designs can suit a modern setting more than a traditional one. For small spaces, a glass topped table or a sleek metal table can give the illusion of a bigger space.
