We Love Concrete Coffee Tables

 

Concrete coffee tables are very popular right now.  They are versatile and complement a variety of design aesthetics.  Because they are made from concrete, they are high quality and can withstand use over many years.


Why A Concrete Coffee Table?

Concrete coffee tables are very popular and are a growing design trend.  They add texture, personality, and dimension to your living room.  Concrete tables will enhance any design style, whether it be Contemporary, Industrial, Farmhouse, Rustic, or Coastal.   Some people think because the table is made of concrete, it will make the space feel cold and lifeless, but just the opposite is true.  They will make the room warm and inviting while pairing well with other textures.  You will love the mix of simplicity and sophistication of your concrete coffee table.  

Concrete is versatile and can be molded to create soft curves and texture, giving it a custom-made, unique look.  Concrete material is far more durable and less expensive than other furniture materials.  Concrete coffee tables can be round, rectangular, square, or abstract.  They are sturdy and scratch resistant, so they are perfect for high-traffic areas.  Concrete tables are heat resistant, making them ideal for your outdoor living area while adding style and beauty.  Cement and concrete coffee tables can be found with accents of wood, metal, and color, so it will be easy to find one that compliments your design style.  These tables can be refinished and painted should you desire to change their appearance or color.  They are perfect for someone wanting experimental and unique furniture pieces in their home.  Concrete coffee tables are becoming increasingly popular in the house because they are easy to clean, eco-friendly, and durable.  

If you want to give your living room an updated look, a concrete coffee table will do that.  It will give you a classic look that will last a long time.  The table will become the focal point of your room while serving as a cozy place to relax and enjoy your day. 

 
 

Concrete Table: How To Make It Work

If you want to spruce up your living room and create a focal point, a concrete coffee table will do that for you.  They have a low profile so that you can add colorful and engaging decorations like books, flowers, and vases.  A floral arrangement or plant in the center of the table would add to its beauty. 

But before you can purchase your new concrete table, there are a few things you need to do.  First, you need to decide what shape you want for your coffee table.  If you’re looking for a simple but updated concrete coffee table, a clean-lined rectangular or elegant curvy round table would be fantastic for a modern contemporary home.  A curvy table demonstrates the spontaneity and comfort that a square table doesn’t.  When selecting a coffee table, consider your design style and personality.  Think about what colors and patterns you like.  Do you want a formal or casual concrete table?   

Next, measure your living room and the space the table is going in so that you purchase the correct size.  You want to have 14-18 inches between your table and sofa to have enough legroom.  Your table should be about two-thirds of the sofa’s length and 1-2 inches lower than the sofa.  

A concrete pedestal table would make a statement outside by a pool.   It would blend well with any furniture you have.  You do want to make sure you cover the table during bad weather to keep it protected.  Also, you can add clear car wax to the table to maintain its honed natural beauty.  Clean your table with mild soap and water to maintain its beauty.  

Finally, the thing most people don’t like to talk about is determining your budget. Purchasing a concrete coffee table is an investment because of its durability and longevity. So, consider your coffee table needs and design goals, and have fun finding your new concrete coffee table.

Our Favorite Concrete Coffee Tables

A stylish white round concrete coffee table is a perfect neutral table for creating contrast with a touch of glam.  It exudes a relaxed and sophisticated appearance.  The sleek marble look will create a focal point that demands attention.  Because there are no sharp corners, it’s a great option if you have children.  It would even give your outdoor furniture an elevated look.  This would be for a contemporary or transitional design style.  Because these tables are made of natural materials, they may fade in color over time, adding character and originality to the table. 

A bold black matte drum-shaped table would give an organic vibe to the room.  It would provide the perfect combination of style and function.  It would be a statement-making piece of furniture stimulating any living room.  I love the mix of wood and concrete for a coffee table. 

A gray smooth-top concrete coffee table will add style and personality to your living room.  It exudes a cool, sophisticated look.  It would even give your outdoor furniture an elevated look.  A benefit of concrete tables is that they are resistant to fire, mold, and bacteria, making them perfect for the outdoors.  

I love the mix of wood and concrete for a coffee table.  Like a sculpture, the concrete tables are sleek and modern, but the wood base also gives it a rustic feel.  The base could also be a shelf for additional storage in the room.  The wood and concrete combination would work with any design style.

Concrete and metal coffee tables are very much in style. If you want to incorporate a hot design trend into your home, then this is the type of table you need. It combines contemporary with industrial style.

Whichever style, color, and shape you pick, you can’t go wrong in purchasing a concrete coffee table. You will have a unique conversational piece of furniture to enhance your living room’s beauty.
