Side Table - Stylish & Functional
Side Table — Stylish & Functional
A side table is the most versatile piece of furniture in the living room. Next to the sofa for drinks, next to an armchair as a reading lamp table, or as a coffee table in a duo arrangement — the side table fits everywhere. At Industrial Home, you'll find side tables in solid acacia wood, glass, and metal. From compact and affordable to unique and sculptural. Perfectly matches the current Japandi, wabi-sabi, and slow living trends dominating contemporary Dutch interiors.
Solid Acacia — Character and Warmth
The solid acacia side tables are the most distinctive choice. Each piece is unique due to the wavy grain and color contrast of acacia wood. Available as a single piece or in a set.
Eclipse — Metal & Glass
The Eclipse series combines a subtle metal frame with a glass top. Sleek, airy, and modern. The Eclipse is available as a single side table (low, medium, high) or as a Drop set in two sizes.
How to Use a Side Table?
- Next to the sofa — for drinks, books, phone. Ideal height equal to or slightly higher than the armrest.
- Next to an armchair — as a reading nook table. A higher Eclipse or River Solid is perfect.
- As a duo coffee table — two side tables at different heights for a dynamic arrangement.
- Corner of the room — a tall side table as a focal point with a plant or lamp on top.
- Bedroom — as a nightstand next to the bed.

What is the difference between a side table and a coffee table?
A coffee table is positioned centrally in front of the sofa and is larger (80-140 cm). A side table is smaller (30-50 cm) and is placed next to a chair or sofa. Two side tables can replace a coffee table.

Yes — the Trunk Ø32 set consists of two log slices that can be used separately or stacked. Stacked, they become a charming narrow side table.
Is the Flow Solid water-resistant?
The Flow Solid is made of solid acacia wood and suitable for indoor use. Not suitable for outdoor use or damp spaces.
