In my Seattle interior design practice I frequently place nesting tables in space challenged interiors. Nesting tables are always a design standard for many reasons. They are space efficient and multifunctional. Two to three tables are sold together and nest in one another. More recently I find tables that stack a fresh alternative. With the popularity of ottoman cocktail tables, the stack table can move to the ottoman for drinks or food and then return as a side table. See the images below as examples:

Both the Alexa Hampton Asian inspired stack tables and the colorfully exotic hand-painted tables from Serena & Lily offer a fresh alternative to the tried and true nesting table.

However, there remains a place for the nesting table. Since the smaller tables slide under the larger tables, they don’t take up any more floor space than a typical end or lamp table. For this reason, they are a great alternative to side tables, as they provide small tables, great for nights where you are entertaining guests, or simply want to enjoy a meal in front of the television. Another application is beside your bed as you can stagger lamp, books, cups or candles.

Do you crave one simple, beautiful space? Wish you had a friend in the design business? We’re here to help.
