It’s the table that took over Instagram and Pinterest. The “Cloud” Coffee Table with its free-form, organic top and sculptural legs—is more than just a piece of furniture; it’s a statement.

Its popularity comes from its ability to break the mold of traditional, rectangular furniture. The soft curves bring a sense of calm and flow to a room, while its solid stone construction grounds the space with luxury.

But once you have this stunning piece in your home, how do you style it without covering up its unique shape? At Joseph Terrazzo, we’ve seen our clients style the Cloud table in countless beautiful ways. Here are our top tips for making it the star of your living room.

1. Embrace the Curves with Your Layout

The Cloud table is an organic shape, so it works best when it’s not boxed in by rigid, straight lines.

• The Sofa Pairing: A curved sofa is the ultimate match, echoing the table’s lines. However, it also looks fantastic juxtaposed with a clean-lined, modern sectional. The key is to let the table “float” in the space.
• The Rug: An irregularly shaped or round rug mirrors the table’s form, creating a cohesive, soft island in your living room. If you use a rectangular rug, make sure it’s large enough so the table doesn’t feel trapped.

2. The Rule of Three: Styling the Surface

Because the tabletop is a piece of art itself, you don’t want to clutter it. The “Rule of Three” is a classic styling trick that works perfectly here. Group three items of varying heights and textures to create a balanced vignette.

• Height: Start with something tall, like a sculptural vase with a few dried branches or a statement candlestick.
• Volume: Add something with visual weight, like a stack of two or three beautiful coffee table books.
• Texture: Finish with a smaller, tactile object, like a decorative stone bowl, a unique ceramic sculpture, or a small potted plant.

Pro Tip: Leave plenty of “negative space.” The beautiful terrazzo pattern is part of the decor, so let it shine through!

3. Play with Contrast

Terrazzo is a natural material that loves company. Contrast its cool, smooth stone surface with warmer, softer textures.

• Warmth: A wooden tray or a stack of books with warm-toned covers can add a cozy feel.
• Softness: Place a soft, nubby wool or boucle throw blanket on a nearby sofa to create a tactile balance.
• Metal Accents: A touch of brass or matte black metal (in a vase or tray) can add a modern, sophisticated edge that complements the stone’s natural elegance.

4. Keep it Functional

While it’s a beautiful object, it’s also a coffee table! Make sure your styling doesn’t get in the way of everyday life.

• The “Landing Pad”: Leave a clear space for your coffee cup, remote controls, or a glass of wine. A stylish tray can help coral these items when they’re not in use.
• Flow: Ensure there’s enough space around the table for easy movement. Its rounded edges are friendlier to shins than sharp corners, but you still want a comfortable walkway.

5. Let the Terrazzo Be the Star

Our Cloud tables come in a variety of terrazzo finishes, from classic cream with colorful chips to bold charcoal or white with black “Dalmatian” spots. Let the color of your table guide your decor.

• Colorful Terrazzo: If your table has colorful chips, pull one or two of those colors into your pillows, throws, or decorative objects for a cohesive look.
• Neutral Terrazzo: For a more monochromatic table, you can either stick to a neutral palette for a serene vibe or use the table as a blank canvas for bold pops of color in your accessories.
