Cocktail Tables

1. The cocktail table is seldom the largest piece in the living room, but its centrality gives its shape a visual influence much greater than its size. If you’re redecorating a living room, start by settling the question of lines or curves, e.g. rectangular cocktail tables versus oval cocktail tables.

2. Contemporary cocktail tables love being the center of attention, and their distinctive shapes ensure that they usually are. Bent glass bases, tiered squares or circles, abstract geometric shapes, and asymmetric forms are some of the modern cocktail table designs that would command visual attention.

3. Closet space tends to be a rarity in living rooms. The result: clutter that needs more frequent cleanup. Lift top cocktail tables and other storage cocktail table designs are the closet doors of storage-smart living rooms.

4. Glass cocktail tables are versatile pieces that help decorators keep lines, textures, and other elements in balance. With their shaped metal bases, glass top modern cocktail tables excel at creating openness and movement. A traditional glass cocktail table could introduce the richness of a dark wood finish without weighing down the room.

5. Elegant and unobtrusive, round cocktail tables with low profiles are an interesting way to create an off-center table space in modern decors or high-traffic living rooms.
