Yes, but it might make a nice end table. Can you post photos of the whole room arrangement?

Just added a photo

Yeah I saw these recommendations too...but then got worried the table would take up the whole space

are you able to move your sofa back a bit to make more room for a larger coffee table?

Unfortunately no...it’s a really tight space . I would say that’s the furthest back it can go

I think for your tight space it works. Even if you used a very small rectangular coffee table, I think it might make it too tight between the front end of the sofa and that chair in the corner.

What about an ottoman?

Use a larger coffee table with a glass top. It will make the table seem to disappear.

What shape do you recommend?

Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to make this room come together?

Coffee table is to small. Maybe mount your tv above the fireplace then face the couch towards it to open up the room. Get rid of the entertainment center the tv sits on as well as the smaller tables in this room and replace them with one oversized ottoman or table in-front of the couch. This room could be super cute.

I don’t mind the size of the coffee table, and you said to ignore the fireplace decor so I will. The one thing that will make your room pop is new pillows, or even pillow covers. The covers are inexpensive if you have a nice quality pillow already, and if you add some pattern and color I think it would make a huge difference! The ones now look kind of dull and boring.

Thanks!! we JUST moved in so pillows, stuff over fireplace, small table you see is all just old stuff that either needs updated or removed so open to suggestions on specific decor- the dark green chair has to stay as well as the same couch. Unfortunately the way the room is shaped, putting the tv over the fireplace and re positioning the couch isn't an option. Its a really awkward space.

I like a pattern like this for your room. Maybe not this exact color, but they have four options. And then a plain one to go with it in a lighter color. Maybe light creamy white or something?

Sometimes the rules don’t work. It is small but so is the available space. The table seems a a few inches too close to the chaise section. I’d move it so the middle is between the two seat cushions. Also, try turning it so a pair of legs face the tv.

I honestly don’t see how you could go any bigger without creating a traffic problem. And the tabletop itself is large enough to hold a couple of coffee cups and the remote. I’d focus on the other changes and then see if you still have doubts about the table.

Thanks for suggestions.

Yes, I do think pillows will help... I'm stuck on what color combination for the pillow. The chair is a really pretty dark forest green.... I thought maybe finding a pillow with some green in it would help pull the room together? Same with some artwork above the mantle

Perhaps you don't have room for one. You do want to move around the room. We went without for years. We had toddlers and didn't need the obstacle. Maybe a hard surfaced tray on the couch?

The one thing that I would suggest is a larger piece over the mantle. The eye goes to color so, by adding a larger painting, the table would taken a back seat.

Now that I've seen the second photo, I've changed my mind completely. I think it's the best size for your space, and you were smart to use a round one. That's the problem with photos from one angle! You've done a good job with the space. A dark green or gray&green pillow on the sofa would look great.

thanks, sounds like the consensus is that yes, it is technically too small but may work for the space once the rest of the space is decorated appropriately?

I think an oval one would work better.

I think it’s a little small. The size says end table to me. I understand not wanting to crowd the area though and I wouldn’t get a square or rectangle, even in glass, for that reason. I think a larger round or oval would be nice. Could do glass if you felt it was too large but the rounded shape won’t fight with wanting to wedge into and be a part of the sectional if that makes any sense!

I wouldn’t move tv over the fp. I think that trend will die eventually but besides that, I think fp look so much prettier with art or a mirror and accessories.

Thanks for the feedback. I may see if I can find a slightly larger glass one. The issue I’m finding is that 36 inches seems to be the standard size and that won’t fit. I agree about the tv over fireplace..for many places it is the right fit but It is actually one of my pet peeves. I love art over a fireplace. I am thinking I may work on pillows and art and then circle back to the coffee table if it still looks weird to me. Ideally the room would be about 1-2 feet bigger and I could follow the “rules” when it comes to a coffee table. The space is definitely throwing me off

What about a small round ottoman or foot stool nested on the non-chaise side? Would add another surface or place to prop feet and elongate the coffee table look.

Is it a current purchase? If so, try getting a second one exactly like it. Usually "bunching" tables are square, but round would be very fun.

yeah im wondering if maybe two acrylic nesting tables would work

I see on the lower left what looks like two other round tables. How much surface do you need and how are those being used?

haha thats actually a table we are returning- just happens to randomly be sitting there. Theres enough space on one side of the couch for a small side table and thats about it. So that is why I wanted a coffee table.
