Generally made of blond wood, the Scandinavian-style coffee table is a must-have in the living room. It adds a touch of refined softness to the decor. Pair it with a white rug for a cocooning feel, or use a colour to highlight it and warm the room. In terms of shape, if you have a small living room, a round or nesting coffee table is best, so as not to clutter up the space. A square coffee table, on the other hand, with its straight, clean lines, brings a modern feel to the room. When it comes to decoration, Scandinavian style is all about purity. Opt for a pretty vase with a few flowers in it, or a few books from your bookshelf. Round, square or rectangular, with or without wood and a fine metal base, you're bound to find a model to suit you.
