Harald Console Table - Green

This green console table gives you three long, open surfaces in a compact footprint. It is 102cm long, 36cm wide and 91cm tall, built from MDF and firwood and finished in lacquer. The top and two shelves run the full length between four rounded legs, and each leg ends in a castor, so the whole table rolls rather than having to be lifted. At 12.7KG it is a substantial piece of furniture, and the castors make moving it a simple job.

The 36cm depth is the figure that matters most. It is shallow enough for a hallway or a landing where a deeper table would get in the way, and it slots neatly behind a sofa, under a window or along a bedroom wall. Use the top for a lamp, a vase of flowers or a framed print leaning against the wall, the middle shelf for books and magazines, and the lower shelf for baskets, shoes or folded throws. Because it rolls, it suits anyone who likes to rearrange, since it can move from the living room to a home office or a spare room without a struggle. The soft green sits happily with natural wood, wicker and floral prints in a cottage or country scheme, and it is calm enough for a modern room too.

MDF is a dense, even board that takes a coloured finish smoothly, and fir is a light softwood. Here the finish is lacquer, giving the top, the shelves and the legs one even coat of green. The table needs putting together at home, and the maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download, so you can read the steps first. For styling, keep it light: a tall vase or lamp at one end, a low stack of books at the other, and some open space on each shelf so the rounded legs show.
