Buying Checklist
Coffee Table and Side Table Buying Guide: What to Check
Height
As a guide, a coffee table looks best at seat height or up to 5 cm below. For side tables, 55–65 cm sits comfortably at armrest height for most chairs and sofas. Too low means leaning; too high looks out of proportion.
Size and Clearance
A coffee table usually looks balanced at about two thirds of the sofa length. Leave 35–45 cm between the sofa and table so you can move comfortably without stepping around it. Check doorways and hallways before ordering.
Material
Solid timber handles Australian humidity and improves with age. White and marble-effect tops suit coastal and Hamptons rooms. Glass tops keep smaller rooms feeling open.
Storage
Drawers keep remotes and cables hidden. Shelf storage holds books and trays. Nesting tables give flexible extra surface space when needed.
Shape
Rectangular suits most sofas. Round suits smaller rooms and high-traffic areas. Oval is a softer option for family homes with children.
Style Match
Matching the leg finish to other pieces in the room ties the space together without much effort. Timber legs suit warm and natural interiors. Black metal works in contemporary and industrial rooms. White suits coastal and Hamptons palettes.

WHY SHOPICA?
Quality You Can Trust
Shopica is a Sydney-based, family-owned homeware, décor and furniture store founded by Eliane El Khoury. What started as a passion for beautiful, considered interiors has grown into a trusted destination for Australians who care about how their home looks and feels. We curate cushions, floor lamps, mirrors, bedside tables, dining tables, outdoor furniture and decorative pieces chosen specifically for Australian homes. Every piece is held to the same standard we would demand for our own. We do not stock products simply because they are popular. We stock them because they are well made, beautifully designed and worth every dollar.
Our Sydney-based team understands how Australian homes are lived in. The open plan living and dining spaces that define modern Australian architecture. The need for furniture that is beautiful on the weekend and durable through the week. The importance of getting the details right, from the cushion on the sofa to the lamp beside the bed. We source every product with all of this in mind.
With Australia-wide delivery dispatched daily from our Smithfield warehouse in Sydney and personal customer support from a team that genuinely cares about your home, Shopica is here to help you create a space that feels as good as it looks. One considered piece at a time.
