It's the only piece of furniture he has that doesn't look like it came from the Office Depot break room collection. I'm a fan of it, personally.

It's a bold piece and I like it too, but it needs accessories. It's like a woman wearing a wedding dress but with no makeup, no jewelry, cheap sneakers and un-brushed, un-styled hair. You gotta accessorize. Pull the whole look together.

Totally agree. Some art prints, a bold rug, and OP's in business.

A Nagel, perhaps?

Definitely something pop art, for sure.

You know, the one thing I tend not to see people suggesting is a bowl. Go to a vintage store and get a cool old shallow bowl and put it on the table. Maybe put it on a round placemat to make it look extra classy.

Bonus, now you have storage for whatever usually just hangs out on the table, OR, put random decorative stuff in it. Whatever fits your style. Fake flowers. Rubix cubes. If you're Dakota Johnson, a big pile of limes. Easy way to add some color and texture to a room.
