Custom Coffee Tables | More Than Just a Place For Your Artisan Roasted Colorado Coffee

The ubiquitous coffee table is a great way to explore custom furniture. Typically modest in size and cost, they offer many opportunities to foster an appreciation for the process and product of handmade furniture. Many valued conversations will be generated here, make sure the mood is set properly.

Some hints for thinking about coffee table design:

• What are the pieces around the area? Will it nestle into the cove of a sectional couch? Or will it be prominent in front of a minimalist love seat?

• Think about the mood that you want to reach/express when sitting here, relaxed or energized, do you feel it? Does your furniture represent and support that?

• How will you use it? Will it need to support trays of nachos and dip for the big game? Or will you be resting your feet on it while you pour through your next book?

• Have you explored other functionality you want/need? Is storage important? How about electricity?

• Would one table suffice or would two (or more) tables that can nest together create multifunctional benefits?

• Do you connect with linear, common shapes such as squares, rectangles, circles or ovals? Or are you a bit more organic, grooving on multiple curves and textures?

Finding the right coffee table design that works for your space and your lifestyle takes thought and dedication. The form, scale and execution need to be right. Details matter. It’s your lifestyle. How do you want to live?
