Paired & Layered Coffee Tables

4 September 2023

Dimension is the key to adding depth and versatility to a room, allowing focus to go beyond just the linear zones we create with our tables and seating. Coffee tables can be a great way to layer in an unexpected way, adding depth and range of focus with a central and pivotal piece in a living space. Some of our top coffee table designs either feature layered levels or are designed to be grouped, and pair perfectly with a wide range of interiors.

Take the Yang Coffee Table by Bontempi Casa, these artistic designs feature a unique table top formed of two semi-circular parts in wood or marble with a curved split down the middle and a metal joining detail. The tabletop is supported by an off-centre cone-shaped lacquered metal base in a range of finishes, and each design comes in a selection of sizes and heights which blend together.

For a sophisticated fusion, the Billy Coffee Table by Cattelan Italia features a flawless bronze mirrored glass top complemented by an angular lacquered steel frame in a Y shape, and the various heights mean they can be intersected together and overlap as needed. The Benny Keramik Coffee Table by Cattelan Italia features similar overlapping functionality with its lacquered steel X shaped frame and ceramic top with rounded edges, available in a selection of finishes and sizes.

For a bolder style choice, the Callisto Wood Mix Coffee Table by Porada which features a cluster of organically shaped natural marble or wood tops positioned at various heights so that they overlap one another. In mix and match colours, the tops are supported by a bronzoro matt lacquered wood base. Or the Arena Long Bond Coffee Table by Cattelan Italia which features a long contemporary brushed wood top in an organic shape supported by a black steel base and a swivelling smoke grey glass circular side section, giving an industrial yet indulgent aesthetic.
