Julia Fairley20 December 2020

Houzz editorial team. I love design and architecture that is thoughtful, sophisticated and champions an element of the unexpected. Before graduating with a Bachelor of Arts at UNSW and becoming a journalist, I studied interior architecture. For over a decade I have interviewed inspiring creative minds from around the world to write about design in its many different forms. Recently, I have also become an accidental gardener, to everyone's surprise.

The art of finding the right coffee table, arranging it within a space and decorating it to your taste can make or break a room. To help inspire you, we’ve gathered 38 well-considered coffee table arrangements from around the world that balance form and function. Enjoy.

And remember, you can get more details of a project and see more of a professional’s work by clicking on a photo.
