Different types of tables for your home

Tables come in a wide variety of different forms. From dining tables to coffee tables, each one serves a distinct purpose in our living spaces. Side tables, also known as end tables or accent tables, are small and versatile pieces of furniture that can be placed next to sofas, armchairs, or beds. They provide a convenient extra surface space to hold items like lamps, books, drinks, or decorative objects, adding both functionality and aesthetic appeal to a room. Side tables are often used to create a balanced and cohesive look in seating areas while offering a practical space to keep essentials within arm's reach.

Nests of tables, also referred to as nesting tables or occasional tables, are a set of two or more tables that neatly stack together. These tables are designed to save space while offering flexibility in how they can be used. Each table within the set is typically of a different size, allowing them to be arranged in various configurations or used individually as needed. Nests of tables are particularly useful for entertaining guests, as they can be easily separated and utilised as extra surfaces for placing drinks and snacks. 

Both side tables and nests of tables serve practical purposes while enhancing the overall design and functionality of a room. By selecting these versatile pieces, you can add convenience and style to your living space, whether it's for providing a spot to rest items or for creating a dynamic arrangement that adapts to your needs.

Design considerations for a side table or nest of tables

When selecting a side table or nest of tables for your space, there are several design considerations to keep in mind to ensure it compliments your existing decor and meets your functional needs. Firstly, consider the overall style of your space. If your interior leans towards a contemporary aesthetic, you may opt for sleek, minimalist designs with clean lines and metallic finishes. For a more traditional or rustic setting, wooden side tables with ornate details or distressed finishes can add warmth and charm. 

Secondly, consider the size and scale of the side table or nest of tables in relation to the surrounding furniture. It should complement the height and proportions of your seating arrangement without overpowering or appearing too diminutive. The size of your space will determine whether you’re looking for a large or compact side table.

Additionally, think about the functionality you require. If you need storage, consider side tables with drawers or shelves to help keep items organised and easily accessible. 

Lastly, take into account the material and finish of the tables. Durable materials such as wood, metal, or glass can withstand everyday use, while finishes like matte, glossy, or textured surfaces can add visual interest and complement your desired aesthetic. By carefully considering these design elements, you can select a side table or nest of tables that not only serves its purpose, but also enhances the overall design and functionality of your living space.
