Sculptural Side Tables That Share a Sofa's Spotlight
Estimated 0 min read
Sidekicks are classically given less credit but are always the backbone of any endeavor – without their constant support of the brazen, often impulsive hero figure, nothing would get accomplished. In our case without side tables holding their own and supporting the focal pieces of a living room like the sofa or lounge chair, interiors fall flat. We're Team No-More-Casting-Aside-Accent-Pieces, especially with the rise of side tables becoming as artfully-minded as they are functional. Instead of spending hours looking for a unique side table (we know that pain and eye-strain all too well), we compiled some of our most abstract favorites and why we love them.
Let's dive in...
Muuto's Halves Side Table
Why we love it: Terrazzo is all the rage right now, and this acrylic and stone combo with two different surface levels makes it perfect for displaying trinkets with room for all your regular side table beverages/snacks/clutter.
Audo Copenhagen's Androgyne Side Table
Why we love it: The marble and/or steel construction bring some sleekness to these industrial materials with wide, flat legs and cylindrical slits that create a kaleidoscope effect.
&Tradition's Lato Side Table
Why we love it: This table was literally designed to be a homage to sculpture and to take center stage by designer Luca Nichetto. Insider fact, it was originally inspired by the shape of a lollipop (obviously upside down).
&Tradition's Shuffle Table
Why we love it: This modular design is so playful and captivating, probably because it was inspired by the Nordic craft of turning wood and the whimsy of old colorful wooden toys. The Shuffle Table, plain and simple, offers so much joy.
Pols Potten's Tip Tap Stool
Why we love it: Hailing from Amsterdam this stool/side table creation makes the cut because of the sheer variety of vibrant colors it's carried in. Cluster a few of these bright, glossy stools for the ultimate pop-art moment.
Ethnicraft's Geometric Side Table
Why we love it: One of Ethnicraft's newer designs follows their new affliction for solid oak painted black and expertly mixes elegance with just enough geometric forms.
