The living room is the prime area of our home, which carries a lot.
Take the coffee table as an example, it used to be an indispensable large item in the living room, placed in the living room, can play a role in decoration and storage of items.
It's just that as time goes by, many people feel that the coffee table in the living room is very chicken.
I didn't understand it at the time, but I didn't know how wise it was until I saw someone else's design.
Therefore, when I buy a second house, I will never install a "coffee table" in the living room! Smart people are dressed like this, beautiful and practical, let's take a look!
Why isn't it recommended to put a coffee table in the living room?
1. Occupation
Nowadays, in order to reduce financial pressure, many people buy small houses.
Because the space is limited, the living room should naturally be used reasonably, and if you put a large coffee table in the middle, it will inevitably take up space.
Netizen @小李友:
I didn't listen to the persuasion and put a large glass coffee table in the living room, not to mention the space, it looked very ugly, and every time I used it, there would be residual handprints and dirt on it, and I really wanted to smash it.
2. Increase the burden of housework
After the large coffee table is placed in the living room, everyone will develop this habit:
The remote control, teacups, and various sundries in the home will be placed on the coffee table, thinking that it will be more convenient to take it this way.
Although the coffee table can carry the function of storage, we must also clean it regularly, otherwise the coffee table will become dirty and it will be very difficult to clean up.
When you come home every day, you will see a messy coffee table, and your mood will be affected.
Netizen @Decoration Miss Honey:
After putting the coffee table in my house, as long as I don't put something, I feel very awkward, and every time I finish using something, I put it on my hand, and slowly I pile up a lot of things, and I can't start cleaning it up.
Learn from smart people, beautiful and practical
1. There is no coffee table or carpet in the living room
If you have children at home, I don't recommend you to put a coffee table.
Because the coffee table is relatively large, it will limit the range of children's activities, and there will be potential safety hazards.
It is recommended to abandon the coffee table to free up the space in the living room, and you can spread a large carpet on the floor, which can make more space for children to play and watch TV in the living room, which is very comfortable.
The choice of carpet for the living room is very important, my home now uses a wool carpet, the material is good and comfortable, it is really fragrant.
Netizen @有小Erin:
My family has a large carpet in the living room, so you can sit on the floor and watch TV, and you can also create a relaxation area here, where you can sit on the carpet with your children to play with toys and read books, which is really healing.
2. The side table replaces the coffee table
Many people say that if there is no coffee table in the living room, where should the remote control, tea set, and water cup be placed?
In fact, the solution to this problem is very simple, we can use the side table instead of the coffee table, which can help you solve the trouble of storing small things!
Compared with the traditional large coffee table, the side table is small and does not take up space, and its design is relatively novel.
The most important thing is that the side table is very cost-effective, because the style is relatively novel, you can choose according to the design style of your home, so that the sense of happiness is doubled.
3. Put pedals in the living room
There are also people who have the habit of sitting on the sofa and putting their legs on it, and if they put it on a stool, they will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
In this regard, some people like to put pedals in the living room, this kind of pedals are made of a variety of materials, you can choose according to your own experience!
Usually sitting on the sofa, you can put your feet directly on it and feel very comfortable.
Write at the end:
No wonder more and more people don't like to put a coffee table in the living room, you can try the above design methods, beautiful and practical, what do you think?
