My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Low coffee table, Japanese style living

13 years ago
I'm looking for a low coffee table, like this one, to create a Japanese-style living room where you can sit around the table on zabuton (sitting pillows). It'd have to have four legs for the frame. I love this look, though also looking at glass tops. Any suggestions?

    This is a real "kotatsu" (Japanese sitting room table), and has a removable heating unit under the top. Therefore glass will not be appropriate. The table top lifts off the frame so that a kotatsu blanket can be placed over the frame (and under the top) when the heater is turned on. Keeps your legs toastie.
    This particular table is custom made. You might be able to find a wood table on the shopping site Rakuten. If you are in California, Mitsuwa shops sometimes carry wooden tables.
