Surprisingly sleek and modern, metal coffee tables could be exactly what your living room needs. With modern manufacturing techniques and powder coating, we can get super strong and super thin steel that doesn’t rust (unless you scratch off the baked on coating). Power coated steel is really just regular steel with a plastic coating that’s electrically bonded with the metal and then baked to a hard shine. Pretty neat stuff that lets us see great simple coffee table designs like these that are light weight and thin but still super strong.
If you’re into something a bit more substantial looking. This steel coffee table has a really nice strong modern feel, without being to overly industrial with rivets or other usual over the top design elements. Made with a thicker steel than the above tables, this one also looks like it’s coated in a black oxide instead of a powder coat. Meaning it’s waxed to keep it from rusting or will need some regular polishing to keep it looking like this.
