Who says that your coffee table has to be a utilitarian affair? Whatever your taste, make sure that your table makes a statement
Starr of the show
There are many reasons to love the Starr coffee table by Clayton Tugonon. Its smooth, sinuous shape; the fact that it's made from natural materials such as inlaid rattan and coco twigs; and because you actually get two coffee tables in one. Just flip it over and you have a whole new piece.

Hip to be square
If you are looking from something a little industrial, check out the FunkYard Mechanist coffee table from The One. A perfect square measuring 90cm by 90cm, the glass-topped table is defined by its clock-like innards.

The minimal option
If your space is small, steer clear of coffee tables that are too chunky. Instead, opt for this prime example of slimline Scandinavian design. Made from lacquered and brushed steel, this model also comes in red and charcoal grey, but we're coveting the aqua green version.
