Measure the size of the space where you're table will ultimately rest on, be sure there is enough room to walk around then choose a table that is the same height as the sofa and is 1/2 to 2/3 the length of the said furniture. As to color, this will depend on the material. As an example, there are a lot of wood stains you can choose for your wood table but in choosing the color think of the hues that your theme has so they don't clash.

A good choice for these types of people are round tables, so that there not dangerous corners to accidentally bump into.
o The purpose for buying a table to rest your coffee on should be thought of. Answer the following questions first: Are you in the market for one that allows you to save living room space through drawers and cabinets? Are you looking for a convertible table where you can dine, work, and play board games in comfort?
There are different kinds of coffee table for these purposes therefore evaluate your needs first.
