Oval coffee tables in the interior

The desire to make the situation in the house more soft and comfortable often makes people give up furniture with sharp corners. A good replacement for the coffee table of the classical form is the oval type. But you need to thoroughly understand the intricacies of design and style to make the right choice.

Special features

The oval shape is attractive not only for its ease. It allows you to make furniture more mobile and simplify its movement. Even if the table will stand in any one place, there it will occupy minimum space.

Almost all existing interiors are compatible with this solution, and the lack of corners allows you to make your home safer.

Models and materials

The coffee table of an oval configuration can have very different execution.

  • Transformer (easily and simply unfolds as soon as the need arises);
  • Option with a box (very successful when it is necessary to be engaged in constantly small writing - and not only writing - work);
  • Systems with wheels (it is even easier to move them than usual ones).

The highest demand now is for the natural wood version, which looks cozy and expensive, is able to enter any environment.

A little less often buyers choose glass constructions because they add to the atmosphere of space and comfort. In the line of almost any manufacturer, you can also find coffee tables made of laminated chipboard, simple chipboard, MDF. If you are not limited to low-cost materials, you can choose more furniture from rods and various metals, stone and ceramic structures.

Design and colors

Most often bought black, white, brown and gray coffee tables. These colors are elegant, almost universal, neutral in emotional terms and set up a businesslike way. If you have enough money, you can even show your originality by buying a coffee table inlaid with precious stones.Wrought or stone decorative parts are a bit cheaper, but no less attractive in most cases.

In the living room, this type of furniture is placed in the recreation area, in the most prominent place, since it is intended to be the semantic center of the situation. In the bedrooms next to the coffee table, it is appropriate to put a floor lamp to make the atmosphere more comfortable and more intimate. An oval that combines glass and metal in its construction will look very good in a high-tech setting. Indeed, the original solution would be the refusal of the legs, which are replaced by a solid base in the form of a cube, a circle, or a cylindrical one.

For a classic room it is difficult to find a better color than white, coffee, or various combinations of them. In the style of country music, products using bamboo with sophisticated intricate patterns are appropriate, but in the modernist concept, the approach is different: the simpler the shape, the better the result. Adherents of pop art should choose the most bright and catchy tables, create color accents with their help. In a Provencal room, designs from dark woods (preferably aged) will look harmonious, although you can also choose soft pastel shades if you wish.But bright and catchy tones are not recommended. Japanese style implies low (15 - 30 cm less than usual) furniture, laconic forms and restraint of coloring; again, nothing sharp, screaming should not be.

Tips for choosing

The sliding table you need to buy, if you often have to receive guests (visitors). Then all those who came will be able to confidently accommodate him. And when there is no one, the table folds up and takes up less space. Having wheels is very important when it is placed next to furniture.

If it is intended not just to put a coffee table for guests, but also to use it for meals, the requirements will be stricter.

Be sure to ask whether the surface can withstand the load, whether everyone can put the cups and saucers, whether it is harmful for the countertop to be exposed to high temperatures.

Important: if the interior already has one semantic center (an object that attracts attention), buy strictly functional coffee tables without frills. Anyway, they will either not be able to “pull” attention to themselves, or there will be a dissonance, chaos.
