Some of our lamp tables have drawers and shelves, perfect for hiding away a few magazines or books or the TV remote controls.
It’s natural to focus a lot of attention on the main furniture pieces of a room — the sofa in a living room, the dining table in a dining room — but it’s just as important to give attention to smaller details in a room. After all, it is often these details that pull the room design together and give the space its finished look.

Frequently Asked Questions
How tall should a side table be?
Picking the perfect height for your side table isn't just about aesthetics, it's about ensuring convenient access to the items on your table. The ideal height for a side table often ranges between 24 to 30 inches, aligning with the height of most sofas and chairs. When choosing your side table, picture a seamless alignment between the seating the side table, creating a harmonious visual balance in the room.
You’ll also want to consider your personal preferences and the intended use of the side table. If you plan to use it primarily for decorative purposes, a slightly taller or shorter table may suit your taste. Consider the proportions of the surrounding furniture and the overall design scheme of the room, aiming for a cohesive look. By doing so, you create a unified and inviting atmosphere that complements your style and enhances the functionality of the space. If you plan to use the surface for holding drinks or snacks while lounging, a slightly lower height may be more practical. On the other hand, if you intend to use it for reading lamps or decorative elements, a taller table may be preferable.
What are the typical uses of a side table?
One of the most common purposes of a side table is to provide a convenient surface for placing items within arm's reach of seating areas. Whether you're enjoying a cosy evening on the sofa or lounging in your favourite chair, a side table becomes a handy spot for your cup of coffee, a book, or a remote control.
In addition to its functions, a side table often serves as a decorative element. You can use it to display cherished items, such as family photos, decorative vases, or unique sculptures, adding a personalised touch to your living space. The tabletop can be a canvas for your creativity, allowing you to showcase your style and personality through carefully curated décor.
With the availability of designs featuring drawers, shelves, or cubbies, side tables become handy storage for small items like magazines and chargers, or to keep everyday essentials neatly tucked away. This functionality makes side tables an excellent choice for maintaining a tidy and organised living space, especially in smaller homes or apartments where maximising storage is essential.
Another common use of a side table is to support lighting fixtures, such as table lamps or reading lights. Placing a lamp on the side table not only provides additional illumination to the room but also contributes to the overall ambiance. The strategic placement of side tables with lamps can create cosy reading nooks or accentuate specific areas of your living room.
