End tables are like the unsung heroes of interior design. They can go unnoticed in a room with the rest of the furniture surrounding it but their impact on your living space is huge. These versatile pieces of furniture not only provide a convenient surface to place your essentials but also can be used to hold a lamp or a set of coasters to set drinks down on for when guests come over. They can add a touch of style and fill in the empty space between your sofas.
But the question remains: how many end tables do you need? This depends on the size of your living room as well as the furniture layout, and where your end tables will fit best.
The Rule of Proportion
The best place to have your side table is to the side of your sofa. While there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, consider the rule of proportion when deciding on the number of end tables. You could have one on either side to accommodate as many seated guests but you don’t want it to get too cluttered. For a larger seating area, two or more end tables might create a balanced and visually pleasing layout. However, in smaller spaces, a single end table can do wonders without overwhelming the room and the coffee table can be used as another surface.
The Different Types
Like coffee tables, end tables come in several styles that you can pick from to suit your preferences. They can come as a solo statement or as a nesting nirvana. For those who want flexibility without compromising on style, nested end tables are the way to go. These tables come in a set, with smaller tables that can be pulled out whenever you need extra surface space.
