The coffee table is the center of the living room. While it can be landing space for remote controls and magazines, it's also a place where your style can come to life.

Here, we highlight 41 chic ways to style your coffee table like the pros.

Jewel-Box Ottomans

In this Eileen Gray–inspired living room, designer Alexandra Loew used three small ottomans upholstered in Pierre Frey fabrics in place of a traditional cocktail table. While the ottomans are gorgeous on their own, a small silver tray for cocktails or flowers would add more glamour.

Undulating Sculpture

Balancing multiple accessories on a tufted ottoman can be tricky, so a pro tip is to anchor a decorative object on a tray. The tray and sculpture shown in this New York cottage are from the Huniford vintage collection.

Consider a Glass-Topped Table

When you're aiming to showcase a significant amount of accessories, a cocktail table with a glass top can provide balance. It doesn't take up as much visual space as an all-wood design, for instance, and it keeps the focus on your display.

Go for One Statement Piece

If the idea of mixing decorative objects, flowers, and books really isn't your style, opt for one statement piece that reflects your personality. An eye-catching sculptural item or vase containing your favorite blooms is sometimes all that's needed to complete a living room design.

Swap for a Side Table

This country house in southeastern Uruguay, which was built on the remains of an 1810 roadside general store, defies all design conventions. In the living room, the owners have opted for a vintage side table from France instead of a cocktail table. A single vase full of wildflowers draws the eye inside the stylishly stark room.

Accent with a Single Dish

If your coffee table is tiny in size, like the one in this São Paulo duplex, all it needs is one of your favorite artisan bowls or plates to elevate it—especially if the rest of the room boasts maximalist decor.
