Modern Coffee Tables That Elevate Your Living Room Style

7th Nov 2025

At Just Modern Furniture, we know that the right coffee table can completely transform the atmosphere of your living room. Beyond serving as a functional surface for your coffee mug or décor, a modern coffee table is the visual anchor of your space — the piece that ties your sofa, TV unit, and accessories together. Our collection of Australian-made coffee tables combines timeless craftsmanship with contemporary design, offering elegant and practical solutions to elevate every style of home. 

Why a Modern Coffee Table Matters in Home Design 

A coffee table is often the most used and most noticed piece of furniture in any living room. It sets the tone for your space, creating a balance between comfort and sophistication. A well-chosen modern coffee table does more than complement your sofa — it introduces texture, contrast, and structure. Whether your interior leans toward minimalism, Scandinavian calm, or bold urban design, the coffee table is the bridge that unites all these elements into a cohesive whole. 

At Just Modern Furniture, each piece is thoughtfully designed to reflect Australia’s love for open, airy interiors. Our tables are crafted to be both beautiful and functional — offering storage options, durable surfaces, and aesthetic harmony with your TV units and sideboard buffets. 

Design Elements That Define Modern Coffee Tables 

1. Clean Lines and Balanced Proportions

Modern coffee tables feature sleek silhouettes and well-defined geometry. At Just Modern Furniture, our designs emphasise straight edges, low profiles, and proportionate structure — delivering a polished, uncluttered look that complements any living space. 

2. Premium Australian Materials

We use high-quality timber, laminates, and eco-friendly finishes to ensure every modern coffee table reflects both luxury and longevity. Whether it’s natural oak, matte black timber, or a glossy white finish, each piece is engineered to endure daily use while retaining its refined beauty. 

3.Functionality Meets Form

Our coffee tables aren’t just designed to look good — they’re built to be useful. Many of our models include hidden drawers or open shelves for convenient storage, perfect for remotes, books, or magazines. This thoughtful balance of function and form helps keep your living area organised and stylish at the same time. 

Popular Coffee Table Styles from Just Modern Furniture 

1.Timber Coffee Tables 

Crafted from sustainable Australian hardwoods, our timber tables add warmth and authenticity to your home. They pair perfectly with our timber TV units, bringing a natural balance that complements both contemporary and traditional interiors. 

2.White Coffee Tables 

A white coffee table instantly brightens your living space, creating an airy, spacious feel. Our white gloss and matte finishes are ideal for modern homes that embrace minimalism and clean aesthetics. Pair one with a neutral sofa and textured rug for a chic, understated look. 

3.Custom Coffee Tables 

Every home is unique, which is why we offer customisation options to suit your space. You can choose dimensions, materials, colours, and finishes to create a bespoke modern coffee table that matches your interior vision perfectly. 

Styling Tips to Elevate Your Living Room 

A modern coffee table works best when it enhances the balance and flow of your space. Here are a few expert styling ideas from the team at Just Modern Furniture: 

  • Layer with texture: Combine natural timber tones with ceramics, glass, or metal décor to create visual depth. 
  • Use the rule of three: Group small décor items in sets of three — such as a candle, a small plant, and a decorative book — for effortless symmetry. 
  • Keep proportions in mind: The height of your coffee table should complement your sofa; ideally, it should sit just below the cushion level. 
  • Match materials: Pair your coffee table with a timber TV unit or sideboard buffet in similar finishes to achieve a cohesive living room design. 

Why Choose Just Modern Furniture for Your Coffee Table 

As a proudly Australian-owned and operated company, Just Modern Furniture specialises in modern coffee tables that are designed and made locally with precision and care. Every table in our collection is built from sustainable materials using eco-friendly manufacturing methods. Our focus on craftsmanship ensures that each product not only looks elegant but performs reliably for years. 

Our Melbourne-based workshop allows for fast production, local customisation, and exceptional quality control. Whether you’re seeking a sleek minimalist table or a bold centrepiece with rich wood grain, our furniture is built to suit modern Australian living. 

The Perfect Pairing: Coffee Tables and TV Units 

Your coffee table should complement your TV cabinet rather than compete with it. For example, if you have a dark timber entertainment unit, a lighter oak or white coffee table can introduce balance and contrast. Similarly, floating TV stands pair beautifully with lowline coffee tables to maintain an open, spacious feel. Mixing materials — such as a timber top with a matte base — can also add depth and modern character to your setup. 

Conclusion 

A modern coffee table is more than a decorative accent; it’s the heart of your living space. It defines the tone, enhances comfort, and showcases your style. At Just Modern Furniture, our Australian-made coffee tables embody the essence of modern living — elegant design, reliable functionality, and enduring quality. Explore our full range online and find the perfect piece to complete your living room with sophistication and purpose.

FAQ

Choose a TV unit design that is compatible with your existing decor. Our modern TV units in white and black are a perfect choice, as these colours seamlessly blend with any aesthetic. With so many options available at Just Modern Furniture, it's easy to find the perfect TV unit to match your space. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, reach out to us for guidance and assistance.

While there are no standard dimensions for a TV unit, you should use the size of your television as a guide to purchasing the perfect unit. Ideally, the size of your TV unit should be several inches deeper and wider than the size of your television. TV units that are too small can pose a safety risk and look out of place when set underneath a large television. If the TV unit is too large for your space, it can create a jarring or visually unappealing look.

YAt Just Modern Furniture, we use eco-friendly, moisture-resistant acrylic to create durable, scratch-resistant, high-quality modern TV units.

Wall mounts are a great space-saving solution. If minimalism is your go-to aesthetic, then this option is perfect. Meanwhile, TV stands are a neat and efficient way to conceal unsightly wires and cables while adding stylish storage space to your living room.
