Mid-Century Formica Coffee Table by Terence Conran for Habitat

A striking Mid-Century Modern coffee table designed by Terence Conran for Habitat, dating to the 1960s. This sculptural table features a bold geometric graphic top in warm ochre and cream tones, instantly recognisable as classic Habitat design from the golden era of British modernism.

 

The long, low profile is elevated on slender metal legs, giving the piece a light architectural feel, while the integrated lower shelf provides practical storage for books or magazines. Confidently graphic yet effortlessly usable, this table embodies Conran’s vision of accessible, design-led living and remains highly collectible today.

 

An ideal statement piece for modernist, Scandinavian, or eclectic interiors — equally at home in a curated living space, design-led office, or studio setting.
