This Table Will Self-Destruct...

Filed under: Decor, Green


Talk about a limited edition: if you don't get in on this table in time there will literally be nothing left. It's called This Table Will Self-Destruct and each time the table is made a "pixel" is removed. The table top is basically a big grid that's slowly getting holes in it, with the "limited edition" meaning they'll keep making them until it's no longer usable.

So far the table is missing 25 pixels, and there's a grid on the website so you can see exactly where they've been removed. If you want one don't wait too long! $980

Zanotta Tod Occasional Table

Filed under: Decor


Intended as a coffee table, the Zanotta Tod Occasional Table is really a blend of coffee table and end table, with maybe a little touch of 'TV tray' thrown in for good measure. Shaped conveniently to slip right up next to the couch or stand freely and impress from a distance, it has a very modern and sophisticated design. Finished in a glossy lacquer over a polypropylene frame it's available in a variety of bold colors to fit your home scheme. And although I like the white, it reminds a little of something found in a restroom -- I think I'd choose a different shade. £490

Recycled Bike Coffee Table

Filed under: Decor


I have to say, I would not have guessed "bicycle" if asked what this coffee table used to be in a former life. I can kind of see it in the cogs and the reshaped rims, but the rolled inner tubes for feet and some other features are well disguised. This Recycled Bike Coffee Table by Resource Revival is definitely unique and brings a whole new meaning to the idea of recycling with it's elegant though industrial appearance. It's hard to imagine that it used to be an old used-up form of transportation for somebody -- welcome back little bike!

Specializing in using old bicycle parts to create functional works of art, Resource Revival makes its creations by hand in Mosier, Oregon. Also worth checking out from them is this Recycled Bike Cafe Table.

Logue Studio Tables

Filed under: Decor


Logue Studio calls their coffee table a living platform, an ambitious name for a simple yet pleasing concept.. The long table is available in several different sizes and has flip down doors. The four bays in this version can hold remotes, magazines and anything else you want out of sight but within easy reach. The table is made of bamboo with aluminum legs and comes in several different finishes. There are also several versions that have a TV mount but I like it better as a table. Prices start at $1698.

Architectural Coffee Table

Filed under: Decor

The Architectural Coffee Table is equipped to handle displays a little differently than the average coffee table, considering that most of them can only handle a stack or two of coffee table books. This unit is made of an antique architect's table and includes a glass top that allows you to peer into the top compartment of the table, where you can store maps (as pictured), photos or other collectible items to create an entirely unique look. Three different sizes are available, but all stand about 15" inch, with 4" casters that make the tables easy to move. The rest of the drawers can be used for storage of magazines, newspapers or even the TV remotes. Wood and steel tops are available in addition to glass should you prefer a closed look. Prices start at around $2,000 and go up from there.

Balance Accent Table

Filed under: Decor

It's hard to resist a coffee table with a base as unusual as the one on this Balance Accent Table. The very bottom of the base is made of heavy wood with a glossy onyx finish, upon which sit several steel rings. The rings support the curvy, triangular glass top, while providing users an interesting view of the way that they interlock. There is a matching side table, if you want a complete set, which features a vertical chain of steel rings as its support. Price: $998.

Coal Table

Filed under: Decor

Generally speaking, coal is not something that you want to see on Christmas morning. But if the coal has been polished to a high gloss and shaped into a unique coffee table, it's a whole different story. Jim Zivic's Coal Tables are about 18-24 inches high and 30 inches across, though larger pieces can be ordered. They are available unpolished as well as polished, but the look of the more finished, glossy version is the one that will work best in most rooms. Prices start from about $10,000 and up.

Marsh Table

Filed under: Decor

Think of this as a useful sculpture, rather than as just a piece of furniture. The Marsh Table is a geometric piece, handmade of 14-gauge steel that is finished with an architectural-grade white polyester powder coat. It is intended to look smooth and seamless, as though it were a natural geological formation that happened to have enough surface area to make a good coffee table. There is an indented "void" in the side for storing books, DVDs or anything else you need a space for. Price: $3,450.

AGK Vicenza Stone Coffee Table

Filed under: Decor

Andre Agassi and his wife, Steffi Graf, have a furniture line with Kreiss Enterprises, which started when the pair decided that they wanted some custom pieces for their own home. The AGK line has pieces for the living and dining room, as well as the outdoors. Each piece of furniture is sleek and simple, but very functional, like the AGK Vicenza Stone Coffee Table. The table is constructed from a solid block of Pietra di Vicenza sandstone and has a base of hardwood. It also has two slide-out hardwood tables built into the sandstone, allowing for easy extension of the table. Price: $3,450.

Moebius Table

Filed under: Decor

A Moebius strip (or Möbius) is a surface that has only one face. The most common model of one can be made by taking a strip of paper, giving it a single twist, and securing the ends together. The base of the Moebius Table follows the same idea, forming an endless twisting base for the 3/4" thick glass tabletop. Made of walnut-stained beechwood, the upright supports of the table are accented with brass connectors. It is elegant and subtle, but hard to take your eyes off of it once you get a good look at the construction. Price: $448.

Float Table

Filed under: Decor

The Float Table is an unusual table offered from Bernhardt Design. It is constructed from two angled pieces of quarter-cut anigre veneer. The pieces are supported and separated by two brushed stainless steel brackets, giving the impression that the two pieces of wood are drifting apart, only just held together. Different colors of finish are available, to match the wood to your decor, but the rectangular tables all measure 48" x 25" x 16.25." Price: $3,296.

Slim Slant Coffee Table

Filed under: Decor

The eco-friendly Slim Slant coffee table has a unique twist or, more accurately, an angle. The table is made from one of the most renewable resources in the world, bamboo, and the slanted angle of the shelf is meant to reduce stress on books' spines, meaning that they will last longer when stored there. Besides, it looks much neater to keep your books under the coffee table rather than on it. Price: $1050.

Tetra Coffee Table

Filed under: Decor

Coffee tables are a fairly important piece in family and living rooms, but they're not always the most useful pieces of furniture. Inevitably, they are too small or too far out of reach for at least one person. If your table is very large, it simply takes up far more space than it warrants because it's not going to be in use all the time, except as something to collect clutter. The solution? Coffee tables like the Tetra Table. It is compact, but has a number of shelves that can be extended out as needed to create more space. Each shelf will slide neatly back into the central table, meaning that it will never take up more space in the room than you need it to and that you won't have extra, unused spaces asking to have yet another coffee table book stacked on them. The Tetra Table comes in beech with a blue/beige laminate top and is also available in Iroko wood with a black/beige or white/beige laminate Price: $1476.
