Coffee Table Buying Guide - Large Collection
Coffee Table — Large Collection & Custom Made | Industrial Home
The coffee table is the centerpiece of your living room. It connects the sofa, armchairs, and space into a cohesive whole. At Industrial Home, you'll find a large collection of coffee tables in all styles, materials, and shapes. And if you want something special? We custom-make your coffee table — or you can submit your own design.
Types of Coffee Tables
Coffee tables come in countless shapes and styles. Which one suits your interior?
Round Coffee Table
A round coffee table fits perfectly in a space with many straight lines. The round shape brings balance and softness. Ideal for smaller living rooms, as it's easier to walk around than a rectangular variant. Popular diameters: 60, 70, 80, and 90 cm. See our round coffee table page for more details.
Oval Coffee Table
The oval coffee table is an elegant intermediate form: combining the soft curves of an oval with the functionality of an elongated top. It pairs perfectly with an elongated sofa and offers more table surface than a round one. See our organic coffee table for distinctive oval shapes.
Rectangular Coffee Table
The most classic shape. A rectangular coffee table suits almost any sofa and gives the living room an ordered, clear character. Available in all materials and styles.
Organic Coffee Table
An organic or freeform coffee table does not follow strict geometry. The top has an irregular shape, inspired by nature. Very popular in Japandi and boho interiors. Each piece is unique.
Popular Materials
Mango Wood
Mango wood is the best-selling material for coffee tables at Industrial Home. The warm brown tones and characteristic grain give the living room an organic, authentic character. Mango wood is sustainably sourced and offers excellent value for money. See our wooden coffee tables for all variants.
Oak
An oak coffee table is the Dutch classic. Solid oak with an oiled finish fits into both rural and modern interiors. Hardness and durability are top-notch.
Ceramic
A ceramic coffee table is low-maintenance and modern. Resistant to rings, scratches, and stains. Available in marble look, concrete look, and solid colors. Ideal for families with small children or pets.
Glass
A glass coffee table gives an airy, spacious feel. Tempered glass is safe and strong. Popular in modern and minimalist interiors where you want to maximize optical space.
Concrete Look
A concrete look coffee table or one with a real concrete top has a robust, industrial character. It combines excellently with metal legs and dark sofas.

Size Chart — Coffee Table Dimensions
| Table type | Recommended dimensions | Suitable for sofa |
|---|---|---|
| Round | Ø 60–90 cm | 2-seater sofa |
| Oval / organic | 100–140 × 60–80 cm | 2–3 seater sofa |
| Rectangular small | 100–120 × 55–65 cm | 2–3 seater sofa |

| Custom made | As desired | Any sofa |
Tip: The coffee table should ideally be 2/3 of the sofa's length in width. The height: 10–15 cm lower than your sofa's seat height (typically 40–45 cm).
Combining a Coffee Table with your Sofa
A well-composed living room concept starts with a beautiful combination of sofa and coffee table. Consider:
Color and material: Contrast often works well. A light sofa with a dark coffee table, or a wooden sofa with a ceramic table. You don't have to match everything — an interesting interplay of materials is often more beautiful.
Style: Maintain the overall style. An industrial interior requires robust materials; a Japandi living room requires calm, natural colors.
Function: Do you use the coffee table as a breakfast table, workspace, or as a decorative platform? For intensive use, a more robust material like ceramic or HPL is ideal; for purely decorative use, you can choose organic mango wood or glass.
