How to Style Your Coffee Table Like a Designer: Tips & Tricks
Your coffee table is more than just a functional surface—it’s a central styling moment that sets the tone for your living space. A well-curated coffee table arrangement brings balance, texture, and personality to your home, creating an effortlessly chic look. Whether you prefer a minimalist aesthetic or a layered, statement-making display, here’s how to style your coffee table like a designer using timeless pieces from House of 9.
A beautifully crafted tray acts as the foundation of your coffee table styling, providing structure while keeping everything organised. It also helps create a focal point and prevents the space from looking cluttered.
Styling Tip: Our Iris Scalloped Marble Tray is the perfect anchor for your coffee table. Its rich, dark marble finish and elegant scalloped edges add sophistication while effortlessly grounding your decor elements. Use it to corral decorative objects, books, or candles for a cohesive look.

Adding sculptural objects introduces height and dimension to your coffee table. Choose pieces with interesting shapes and textures to create a visually dynamic arrangement.
Styling Tip: The Fiora Marble Bowl is a luxurious addition that brings depth and refinement to your table. Place it atop a stack of books or use it as a standalone piece to add an organic touch to your styling.

Nothing brings life to a coffee table like fresh flowers or sculptural dried stems. A well-chosen vase enhances the arrangement while adding softness and movement.
Styling Tip: Our Ella Vase is a must-have for coffee table styling. Its curved silhouette and neutral tone make it a versatile statement piece. Fill it with fresh blooms for a seasonal update or dried stems for a more sculptural, long-lasting display.

Books add a personal touch and serve as a stylish platform for layering decorative pieces. Opt for beautifully bound coffee table books that align with your interior aesthetic.
Styling Tip: Stack two or three hardcover books in neutral or complementary tones, then place the Fiora Marble Bowl or a candle on top to complete the look.
Candles, decorative beads, or unique objects add personality and a sense of warmth to your coffee table.
Styling Tip: Arrange a mix of candle holders alongside your Iris Scalloped Marble Tray for an elevated yet inviting ambiance. Our Alina Candle Holders make the perfect addition.
