Seeing a buddy, a minimalist and empty home, I was commented by netizens that I was helpless like sitting at the door of the ICU.
Nowadays, the popular decoration style is to go to the living room and the coffee table, has the coffee table really become a superfluous thing?
Why is the whole network going to the coffee table?
(1) Watching videos has become a daily routine, basically not watching TV, and the coffee table is of little use.
(2) Many people sit on the sofa and like to put their feet on the coffee table, which is not beautiful.
(3) The large coffee table takes up too much space, and it affects the traffic route when placed in the middle.
(4) There are not many guests at home, so there is no need to put water cups, melon seeds, and fruits.
Based on this, many young people have adopted the "de-coffee table decoration", throwing away the traditional bulky coffee table and laying a carpet to enhance the sense of open space in the living room.
However, not long after throwing away the coffee table, I found that it was really inconvenient, last time I said on the Internet, no coffee table is still not practical, put the carpet more chicken ribs, there are a bunch of people below to scold me, not that I am old, that is, I am not good at aesthetics, and now it is popular to go to the coffee table.
Well, removing the coffee table can indeed make the living room bigger, and the small dolls in the house can leave room for the children to play.
But I still suggest that you can match a high-value, space-saving coffee table to make your living room both practical and large.
Coffee table flat
(1) Move the trolley
The mobile trolley is not a traditional coffee table shape, but it is more flexible and easier to use, it can be used as a sideboard in the dining room, and can be used as a coffee table in the living room.
There are a variety of styles and materials, with strong storage power, and they are all very good-looking and easy to use.
(2) Folding coffee table
I have used this kind of folding coffee table myself, it is particularly practical, it is usually 120 cm wide when unfolded, it can be used as a normal coffee table, and it is only 60 cm when folded when not in use, which is very space-saving.
Some of them also have a lifting function, which can be used as a dining table when unfolded, so that the family will not be crowded when sitting around for dinner, which greatly enhances the happiness of the family.
The above two types of flat coffee tables are best to choose a style with wheels, and they can be pushed aside when not in use to achieve the coffee table.
In short, the practicality of the coffee table in the living room is still great, but we don't have to stick to the form, as long as it can play the role of the coffee table.
Although the coffee table has brought us great convenience to put things, we can't pile everything on the coffee table, and some people just mess up the coffee table.
Remember, no matter whether the family has money or not, there must be no 4 things on the coffee table, many people don't understand this problem, let's find out, it's very particular.
"4 items" that cannot be placed on the coffee table
(1) The kettle cannot be discharged
Many people always feel that it is a little inconvenient to make tea in the kitchen, dining room and other places, so they want to be able to boil water on the coffee table, and deliberately install a ground plug under the coffee table, and some directly pull the plug board, but this is really unsafe!
Some netizens boiled water on the coffee table, but the plug caught fire, but fortunately there was no accident.
Some people fill the water very casually and will exceed the rated water level, so that the boiling water overflows when boiling, causing burns. In fact, the water should not be lower than the heating circle, otherwise it will also dry up and cause a fire.
Glass electric kettles also have the risk of bursting, and if they explode while boiling water, the consequences are really unimaginable.
Boil water at the coffee table, children don't know the danger, in case the parents don't care about a wrong eye, boiling water will be a big deal.
My cousin's child just knocked over the kettle on the coffee table and was burned by 30% of his body, which really hurts people's hearts, and this is all happening around him.
So, no matter what, don't boil water on the coffee table, it's not worth it if something happens.
(2) Do not put glassware
There is a glass water bottle on the coffee table at my house, and the water bottle is a hydroponic plant, because the water is often changed, I see a small one, so it can also be used as a decoration on the coffee table.
However, I broke several of the glass jars of this hydroponic plant, and often slipped and fell to the ground when I picked it up.
Another time, when I went to a friend's house to play, when I sat on the sofa and got up, I bumped into the corner of the coffee table and dropped a set of glass tea sets that he put on the coffee table, and the tea splashed on the ground, which made me very embarrassed.
In addition, glass products are easy to burst, my family once put an IKEA glass on the coffee table, it exploded for no reason, so scary, fortunately people were not sitting next to the sofa at that time, in the kitchen heard a snap, the glass was torn apart, the cup was not filled with hot water, in a static state, it blew itself, fortunately did not collapse to people.
Therefore, it is really dangerous to put glassware on the coffee table, and I blame myself for accidentally knocking it over, and there is a risk of self-explosion of glass products.
People in the sofa area will inevitably bump into each other, so it's better to be careful.
(3) Do not put green plants
I found that many people love flowers like their lives, and their homes are full, even the coffee table.
The living room is surrounded by greenery, and the sofa does not look like it is at home, but rather it is arranged in a discordant way in the forest.
The coffee table has also become a flower stand, and some people may like this feeling of being surrounded by plants, but the coffee table in the living room is by no means a good place to put green plants.
(1) The soil in the pot is prone to bacteria and insects.
(2) Plants placed on the coffee table are not lit enough, resulting in poor growth and easy wilting.
(3) The available space of the coffee table is too small, and it will appear too crowded if you put a few plants.
Therefore, the coffee table should not be a territory for plants, but should be vacated for some daily items, and plants should be placed on the balcony or in the corner of the living room.
(4) Do not put sharp tools
All kinds of sharp tools and knives (including fruit knives and scissors) should be placed in the housekeeping cabinet or kitchen, but not on the coffee table, as they will be pricked to the foot if they are accidentally dropped, which is very dangerous.
A friend's fruit knife was easily inserted into the storage jar on the coffee table, but the child's small hand swept it, and the knife just pierced the instep of his foot, bleeding a lot.
There are also other tools, such as wrenches, screwdrivers, etc., which are accidentally dropped and smashed on the feet, which is also very harmful.
So, to be on the safe side, put these tools back in place when they're done and keep the coffee table clean with just a few essential items.
Summary at the end of the article:
As the C position in the living room, the coffee table carries our quality of life and happiness, and the items placed on it also reflect our good living habits.
Regardless of whether the family has money or not, don't put the above 4 things on the coffee table, many people don't understand, but they are actually very particular!
