Why a rectangular coffee table?

Even though it may seem to be overlooked next to dining tables or kitchen tables because of its size, a rectangular coffee table has many advantages. It serves as a storage area for drinks, snacks, the remote control or decorative elements such as coffee table books or flower vases. Depending on the material and style, it can also become a decorative element in itself, for example by choosing a mix of metal in the base and a solid wood panel.

In contrast to round coffee tables, rectangular coffee tables have the advantage that they fit better with rectangular furniture. Most sofas or seating have this shape and therefore rectangular coffee tables are usually versatile. A straight line, like a square or rectangular coffee table, is timelessly modern and can be integrated into many living styles. The rectangular shape of coffee tables is one of the most popular shapes because - more than round coffee tables - it ensures elegance and visual harmony in the living area.

Rectangular coffee tables and how to use them correctly in the room

To properly showcase a rectangular coffee table, you should consider a few things:

• The right place:There is logically a coffee table in front of the sofa. But the distance and correct placement are crucial here, because it must not be too close to the sofa to avoid injuries when standing up or sitting down, but it must still be close enough to the couch to be able to comfortably use it as a storage space. The optimal distance is 45 to 50 centimeters between the couch and the table.
• The right size:The perfect size of your coffee table always depends on the seating that goes with it. For straight two- or three-seater sofas, the table should be no more than two-thirds the size of the couch and at least half the width of the sofa. For an L- or U-shaped couch, the table should not be longer than the leg dimensions.
• The right material:Wooden coffee tables look natural and warm. Here you can choose between lacquered wood or natural wood. Materials made from local woods such as oak, cherry or beech are high quality and sustainable due to their long service life. In combination with metal or rectangular coffee tables made entirely of metal, they give the living room an elegant touch. They score points in colors such as black or white.
