Tea table collocation recommendation
1, small thin-legged solid wood sofa with small thin-legged solid wood coffee table
The purpose of the coffee table is nothing more than: putting daily gadgets, storing things, building feet and so on. Sometimes I eat and watch TV on it. It is precisely because the tea table has a wide range of uses that the tea table should be moved frequently when cleaning, so the choice of tea table should not be too big or too heavy, especially in places with relatively small space. Most simple coffee tables are transparent and exquisite. Although the storage space is compressed, it will not block the light and sight, and it will look much easier.
Here, I recommend choosing a black walnut coffee table. If our conditions permit, I suggest you choose the coffee table made of FAS grade black walnut. The pattern is beautiful and complete, and the texture is delicate and smooth. Warm brown, like chocolate sauce, shines with silky light and has a particularly high value. Classic small legs, thin panel, full of elegance and nature.
With light brown carpet and beige cotton and linen sofa cushions, the whole space is very decompression, which is very suitable for people who are in a hurry in this bustling city. Invisibly let people unload fatigue and pressure, giving people relaxation and warmth.
2, round tray tea table, wooden feet or footless sofa
In recent years, the small coffee table with round tray is not only popular in the decoration style of northern Europe, but also chosen by more and more China home improvement. Lively and lovely style, simple and generous, I think it is the best choice for small huxing with small area to choose the price difference.
The rounded curve, used in Chinese home decoration, can neutralize the sense of regularity and toughness brought by a large number of straight lines, and the visual effect will be softer and the life atmosphere will be stronger. If one is not enough, then two, one tall and one short, are also quite interesting. You can choose pure solid wood or other panels with solid wood brackets, so that the color of the tray can be selected according to your own preferences, such as being close to the ground and wall.
The round coffee table shown below, the base bracket is ebony and the panel is marble. The natural texture makes the coffee table show advanced temperament. China furniture has always had the tradition of combining marble with solid wood, especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. People deliberately choose marble with ink texture as the panel, which is a wonderful work of nature. The combination of the two is natural, and it is a very popular style in the mass market now.
3, log wind belt drawer coffee table log wind sofa
In recent years, the log style is particularly popular in the new Chinese style. Many young people don't like the dull and deep colors used in the traditional Chinese style, but the new Chinese family made of light wood such as Fraxinus mandshurica and oak is refreshing.
It not only has the vitality and romance of young people, but also has the charm of China traditional culture, which is suitable for small apartments. The coffee table below is a log-colored coffee table with drawers. In the overall simple atmosphere, a little storage space is added, and the practical performance is greatly enhanced.
Four thin legs will have a "slimming" effect visually, which is much more exquisite than those styles that lie directly on the ground. The texture of ash wood is rough and vigorous, and its voice is rich. If you put it in the middle of the living room, everyone will notice it at first sight. Moreover, its color is very close to the people, and when matched with other ash wood furniture, the simple and natural beauty arises spontaneously.

1. Safety: Because it is placed in the lobby that we often use, it often comes and goes, so we must handle its corners and try to choose a rounded coffee table. If you have a baby at home, you'd better stick some anti-collision strips in the corner.
2. Color: No matter what material it is, whether it is wood, glass or metal, first of all, its color should match the sofa. For example, the glass coffee table can give people a bright feeling and can expand the space vision; Steady dark wooden coffee table is more suitable for larger classical space.

Generally speaking, in a living room with a relatively small space, it is suitable to put a simple movable coffee table or an arc coffee table, which can make the space look relaxed and not cramped.
