Round Coffee Tables Reveal The Secrets Of Their Beautiful Designs
Round tables, regardless of the their type, are appreciated for their elegance and their natural ability to bring people together and to facilitate interactions and dialogue.

Designs such as that of the UP coffee table offer more than one option in terms of materials and material combinations. The table is designed by Luca Botto and has a chrome-plated steel frame and a top that can be made of marble, lacquered MDF or wood.

A modern trend is to use coffee tables in sets rather than as individual furniture pieces.

Regular coffee tables can be successfully replaced by sets of two or more side tables such as the Batea.

Contrary to the belief that round coffee tables aren’t very space-efficient and practical, models such as the 1007 Ship’s Wheel by Caroti feature a very functional design.

Further more, elegant little details and the mirror top give the table a particularly glamorous and elegant look.
Coffee tables such as the Turi Turi designed by Antonio Sciortino defy tradition with a design that’s sleek and delicate but also strong and resistant.

Use it as a side table, as a coffee table, alone or in pairs of two of three and combine different colors to add a vibrant touch to the décor.
