Factors to Consider When Choosing a Coffee Table for a Small Living Room
Before we get into our list of small coffee tables at La-Z-Boy Ottawa and Kingston, there are a few things you should consider before choosing a coffee table for your small living space.
One of the most important things anyone should do before purchasing a new furniture item is measure your space.
Every living space has a different size, regardless of whether it’s small or not. Not only will this help with figuring out the exact dimensions of your room, but it will determine if a living room piece, like a coffee table, is the right size.
When choosing the right size for your coffee table, it should not look any bigger than the furniture pieces you already have in your room. Otherwise, the placement could look awkward and disproportionate to your other furniture.
The best way to determine the right size for your coffee table is by looking at your seating arrangement. What kind of living room seating do you have? Is it a sofa, a sectional, a loveseat, or a combination of these items?
The shape of your coffee table is also important when matching your living room layout, to help best compliment your seating arrangement.
To learn more about Determining the Right Shape & Size for Your Coffee Table, take a look at this article.
1. Urbana Coffee Table
The first small coffee table on our list is a glass table that goes by the name Urbana. This glass coffee table is considered an oval cocktail table, which means it sits closer to the ground, but still can be considered large enough for a small living room.
Taken from our Hammary subsidiary, the Urbana features dark oak outlines with tempered glass on top and underneath, which is great for any extra storage.
The Urbana oval glass coffee table is 48W x 18H x 26L and is available in other sizes like end tables and round coffee tables.
2. Portrait Round Coffee Table with Storage
Next up is another round coffee table in shape but with a little extra functionality. This white coffee table with storage, once again from Hammary, has a large drawer on the side of the piece that can hold many personal belongings, which is great for someone living in a small space.
If you live in a small space and can't always keep things out, multifunctional furniture is a must-have. You want to help maximize your home with stylish pieces of furniture that will hold them for you. This is exactly what this wooden coffee table does.
Adding simplicity and refinement, it is beautifully designed with a taupe patina finish and comes from the Portrait series of furniture.
This Round coffee table is 30W x 16H x 30L, and is also available as a glass nesting table, a round end table and a multi-shelf media table.
3. Primo Lift Top Coffee Table
Next is a rectangular coffee table that also has storage.
This rectangular coffee table from the Primo lll collection under Hammary, may look large and in charge but can fit a small space quite nicely, especially if you’re looking for a piece with a lot of versatility.
Not only does this square coffee table come with a small storage compartment at the lower end of the piece, but it is also a lift-top coffee table.
Elevating coffee tables are unique, allowing the tabletop to rise, aligning conveniently with your living room seating.
With a lift-top coffee table, you can relax on your sofa, without having to crouch down or move too much when you’re enjoying a meal or a snack in your favourite spot.
What’s more, for all you work-from-home employees, you can also easily work on this small coffee table, if you do not have a space of your own to do so.
The Primo lll lift-top coffee table is 48W x 20H x 29L and can be matched with other Primo lll collection items, such as a media unit, sofa table, and end tables.
4. Root Ball Squared Coffee Table
If you’re looking for a small coffee table with a big personality, this next piece might be right for you. Another coffee table from Hammary, this time in the Hidden Treasures collection, is this Root Ball Squared Coffee Table.
As you can see, this small table is unlike any of the other wooden coffee tables we’ve seen on this list. Not only does its appearance make this live edge coffee table interesting, but what’s even cooler is the fact that not all of these small coffee tables are the same.
Each live edge coffee table from this product has a different pattern of wood detailing to help it stand out from each other. It also features a glass top to help admire its impressive detailing on all sides.
If you’re looking for a show-stopper, this live-edge coffee table is your next purchase. Each live edge cube on this coffee table is 18 inches all around in height, width and length.
5. Concrete Nesting Coffee Tables
Last but certainly not least is another interesting coffee table that we couldn’t leave out of this list. Another product from Hammary’s Hidden Treasures line is this nesting coffee table.
Featuring both a glass coffee table top and a concrete top, you can personalize your living room with a unique set of different materials that go well with almost anything.
This small coffee table, although big in personality, can double as not just one coffee table, but two! You can either leave it as one, which can create a great layered look or, if you’re hosting a large gathering, you can let this piece stand out as two pieces, being placed in two places at the same time.
This concrete and glass nesting coffee table is 36W x 19.5H x 36L and can be matched with other furniture pieces from the Hidden Treasures collection.
