Some tips for buying a modern end table Remember the time when people decorated their homes with sofas, tables, and other furniture pieces that matched? It made
shopping for furniture easy, but took away a lot in terms of aesthetic appeal. The rooms often ended up looking totally
predictable with nothing much going on in terms of creativity and inspiration.
These days, people are more into taking risks, branching out, and experimenting with the look of their living areas. Home owners
today are purchasing furniture pieces that complement one another rather than be a boring and insipid part of a set. However, for
this to work, people need to know what works and what does not. This can be a really major issue when one is considering
buying a modern end table or a back table.
End tables are found on either side of a sofa or bed; you can also place these around the house and use according to your specific
needs. They are really versatile and are often moved around from one place to another quite a bit.
When buying a modern end table, you need to keep certain factors in mind.
Look at the shape of an end table and choose one depending on the area where you plan on placing the same. The table
should fit in perfectly and not look out of place. You can try mixing the table shapes in your room to get a nice contrast.
An oval coffee table can bring out the best in a square or rectangular end table. If you decide on keeping the same
shape for all the side and end tables in your room, you might try and experiment with the materials.
A brass end table might look really exquisite in a room with wood side tables. You can pair brass end tables with a
beautifully crafted coffee table made from rosewood.
You can also mix different styles to create a visual interest in your room. Place a contemporary end table with a
traditional sofa or a modern side chair with a traditional black side table, and make your spaces more inviting and
attractive.
If you are planning on placing your end tables on either side of the sofa, make sure the height of the tables is consistent
with the height of the sofa’s arms. It looks better and is also easier to reach. If you are thinking of using them as
bedside tables, the height should be same as the mattress you use.
When it comes to selecting a modern end table or any other piece of furniture, there are no hard and fast rules. Make sure that the
table you choose is of the right size, goes with the other furniture pieces, and opens up your space. The idea is to make all the
myriad furniture pieces connect in some way so that there is a balance and symmetry in your newly renovated rooms.
