Small spaces deserve beautiful furniture too. Our narrow console tables are chosen for hallways, landings and tight corners where every centimetre counts, giving you a place for lamps, keys and favourite pieces without crowding the room. Slim in profile and considered in design, they bring a sense of calm and order to the spaces that are often overlooked.
Measuring a narrow space
Depth is the measurement that matters most. Check the width of your hallway or walkway and make sure there is comfortable room to pass once the table is in place, including space for doors to open fully. Note any radiators, skirting or light switches on the wall, and allow a little room either side so the table sits neatly rather than feeling squeezed in. If you have a little more room to play with, explore our full range of console tables.
Making the most of a slim table
A narrow console can work much harder than its size suggests. Designs with a drawer keep keys, post and chargers tidy and out of sight, while a lower shelf offers a home for baskets, shoes or a stack of books. On a landing or in a bedroom, a slim console can double as a compact desk or dressing table.
Styling in small spaces
Keep the look light and uncluttered. A mirror hung above reflects light and makes a narrow hallway feel wider, while a slim table lamp adds warmth without taking up the whole surface. Choose two or three pieces of varying heights, such as a small vase, a dish for keys and a candle, and leave some space clear so the arrangement feels calm.
Caring for your console table
Dust with a soft, dry cloth and use mats under lamps and vases to protect the top. In busy hallways, wipe away marks promptly, and keep your table away from direct heat and strong sunlight so it stays looking its best for years to come.
