Add Interest to Your Home Décor with a Mixed Material Coffee Table

Why is salted caramel so popular? Why is sweet and sour chicken an enduring favorite? Why is cheddar cheese and apple pie a classic? All these things have one thing in common: unexpected flavor combinations. The bolder fashion mavens among us take this concept even further by combining stripes with patterns. Unusual combinations can add interest and personality to your home décor with a mixed-material coffee table.

When you add furniture with mixed materials to your home, you add personality and freshness to the space. Even better, these pieces go with almost any design style. If your style is contemporary, try a sleek table with a glass top and a simple wood base. If you like a rustic feel, try a mixed-material coffee table with metal base and a distressed wood top. If you like eclectic, then anything goes, as long as it goes, of course.

It Takes Two to Tango

A favorite combination when it comes to a mixed-material coffee table is metal and wood. There's just something about this classic combination that pleases the eye and soothes the soul. To add this look to your living room, look for a fresh interpretation to level up your style. Try a distressed wood base with a metal top, like the one found on the Oyster Bay Litchfield Cocktail Table. The carved wood base and burnished stainless steel go well with a relaxed and neutral color palette.

Good Things Come in Threes

Three is definitely not a crowd when it comes to mixed materials in furniture. By adding glass to the wood-and-metal mix, you add unique contemporary style to your living room. With its brass frame, wooden drawers, and glass top, the Curata Modern Rectangle Coffee Table is a modern focal point that you'll enjoy showing off in your home.

Add a Mixed-Material Coffee Table to Your Home Décor

If you really want to try out the mixed-materials look, but aren't sure it will go with your current style, try adding a cocktail or coffee table to your living room. It may seem like a small change, but it can really supercharge the style of your home décor. There is a wide range of style and material combinations to choose from.
