Styling a beautiful coffee table top is all the rage in the world of design and you are probably dying to have a “Pinterest” worthy coffee table of your own. Here’s how our team goes about creating a perfect yet functional look for our clients.

Balance:

Keep your coffee table balanced by varying the scale of the items displayed and group “like” objects together. When working with a large area you may opt to decorate only one side instead of both to keep the coffee table from feeling cluttered. Ensure you leave space for guests toplace a drink.

Spacial awareness:

Oversized coffee tables can be a challenge and knowing where to begin is half the battle. When styling these oversized coffee tables, try using painter’s tape to map out your table into 3-4 sections. From here, you may find it easier to play around and position objects within the smaller set of squares.

create excitement:

To create an eye-catching vignette it's best to vary the height and scale of your coffee table's decorative details. In addition, opt for decor pieces that complement the colour of your coffee table. Experiment with neutrals to create a harmonious look, or dare to be bold by using contrasting colors and metallic accents.

use a tray:

A tray can serve many different purposes, being both practical and stylish. It effortlessly divides and organizes decor, while also providing an easy way to clear clutter. A tray provides structure and symmetry while anchoring tabletop items that might otherwise feel like they're floating.

get personal:

If a collection of knick-knacks doesn't appeal to you, try adding one or two decorative pieces you really love paired with items that tell your story.

Adding details that you are passionate about will welcome your guests and help create conversation as they learn what’s important to you and what your interests are.
