Organic Modern Living Room Console Table Ideas

A television changes what a console is. Put a screen on a long low cabinet and you have a credenza by another name, which is why two of these five rooms get only a short visit here. The other three are the real subject, narrow tables that stand against a wall or float behind a sofa, and they are the pieces that make the rooms in this part of the Dark Luxury Lookbook feel finished.

Organic modern living room console table pictures, three places to stand one

The three are the Novie console large in dark walnut with a matte black frame, the Delta console in dark walnut on a metal base, both by Noir, and a 55 inch rustic brown wood console. One sits on a plain wall, one carries a big canvas, one backs a sofa. Each position asks for a different height, depth and top. Our console tables are worth filtering by depth first.

Against a bare wall

The Novie holds a Lighthouse lamp in matte black with antique brass accents under a 30 inch wildflower meadow print. Lamp, print, case: three layers, each a different material, nothing doubled. Against a wall a console can be as deep as the walkway allows, and the walnut top earns its space by carrying light. Similar tops are in our walnut console tables.

A metal base lightens the wall

The Delta sets dark walnut over a metal base, under a 60 inch large green abstract with a 16 inch smoky brown blown glass bowl on top. The canvas is wider than many consoles, and the open metal legs are what keep the group from looking top heavy. You see floor through the base, so the wall reads lighter than its art. The broader room is in our organic modern living room furniture.

Behind the couch

The 55 inch rustic brown wood console stands in the room built around what to put behind a couch, with a 50 inch white loop abstract on beige above and a beige marble oval sculpture on a stand. Searches for console table decor behind a couch are small but steady, and the question underneath them is always height. Tables built for that spot sit in our sofa tables.

Organic modern living room console table ideas for the space behind a sofa

The rule I would follow: the top of the console should land at or just below the top of the sofa back, and the depth should stay narrow enough that you can still walk around it. Lower, and it looks like an afterthought. Higher, and it reads as a fence. Rustic wood suits this spot because the back of a sofa takes knocks. Compare depths across our living room console table ideas.

Under a screen, call it a credenza

The two TV rooms use a 74 inch brown acacia TV stand with an 83 inch beige sofa and a 40 inch black marble round coffee table, and a 98 inch brown wood media console with storage, paired with a 64 inch two-tier oak coffee table under a 54 inch white metal panel. They belong in the organic modern living room console table photos because they share the same low line, but closed storage makes them a different decision. That thinking is covered in our organic modern living room credenza ideas.

Stone, cane and concrete in the band

The shop band is where the organic modern living room console table inspiration really widens: a travertine top on dark iron, ivory limestone on a geometric base, a grasscloth top on oak legs, mindi wood with rattan cane and two drawers, a chiseled ebony elm piece, indoor-outdoor concrete in limestone or slate. Searches for an organic modern console table with storage doubled over the year, and drawers like the mindi pair answer that. Browse our console tables with storage.

The mistake is a console taller than the sofa back

It happens all the time. A tall entry console is moved behind a low modern sofa, and suddenly there is a wooden wall in the middle of the living room. Measure the sofa back first, then buy the table. Scroll the organic modern living room console table gallery and every one sits lower than you expect. More forms are in our organic modern console table ideas.

Open legs and solid sides after dark

At night a console on metal legs nearly disappears, and the lamp and the object on top seem to hover against the wall. A solid wood console with closed sides stays as a dark block under the light. Choose open legs where you want the wall to recede, and solid sides where you want the room to feel weighted and settled.
