You’ve come a long way baby…the ottoman, that is. Today, it’s storage, extra seating and a coffee table! From small to over-sized, ottomans are a secret weapon for your decorating scheme. This handy piece of furniture is a space saver and an opportunity to make a statement in the middle of the room. Ottomans in recent years have become larger and more versatile to serve as coffee tables as well. Like this one by Hickory Chair that I’m using in a new project.

What I love about this ottoman is the tray plus the option to purchase another. The removable tray can be used to serve appetizers and drinks. Very practical. This is a long ottoman at 60” but will function well in my seating plan because it allows for pull up “small seats” or smaller ottomans at either end when my clients have gatherings.

This ottoman from Neiman Marcus doubles as a storage unit but still looks elegant in a bold chocolate and white pattern.

To add interesting texture to your space, try the “Samar” ottoman from Crate & Barrel, made from handwoven sustainable lampakanai fibers. One could also use this as a footrest or side table.

Apartment living just got easier with this stylish and practical sleeper ottoman from Duralee.
