It serves many roles such as displaying decorative pieces, a home to drinks, or even something as simple as a television remote. With the right decorative pieces this is a great way to add interest to your coffee table and develop a well designed focal point.

Grouping Objects
The best way to maintain balance is by grouping objects together. Group objects that are similar, but all remain different in their own way. Multiple objects can be used in a cohort when they are grouped together. Using odd numbers to create a coherent design is the best way to create a coffee table that has an eye catching point as all things are in unison.
3’s & 5’s
Using the rule of 3’s & 5’s has been implemented within design for a long time, so use it! The way you layout these objects dictate so many factors that go into developing the best design. Using odd numbers allow an individual to easily find the balance and focal point. Check out my previous blog 3’s & 5’s for more tips on how to design in sequence.
