How to Make a Round Coffee Table the Centrepiece of Your Living Space

A round coffee table is a useful and versatile piece that is particularly suited for smaller spaces. It's just much easier to walk around a table without any angles, and if it doesn't work in the centre of the room, you can easily move it to a corner. That does not mean a larger room needs to miss out on those organic curves. An oversized round coffee table can be a great addition to a more generous space.
