Boteco treats the coffee table as a piece of architecture: a low, deep slab rather than a thin top on legs. The decision that defines it is the thickness of the top, 8 cm, which is enough to carry a tray built into the surface itself. Instead of setting a tray on the table, the table holds one, so objects have a defined place that does not clutter the plane.

The two versions reverse the roles of their materials. In the wood versions, eucalyptus or palisander Santos veneer forms the top and the tray is lined in Sahara Noir marble, set completely flush, so the stone appears as an inlay. In the marble version, a Grigio Orobico top carries a lowered metal tray in Golden Brown, matching the aluminium legs, with its edge standing 15 mm proud of the surface. Both tops are mitre-folded boxes, and the marble is backed by an aluminium honeycomb panel. Grigio Orobico is a natural stone with strong variation in veining and shade, so no two tops are alike.

In a living room, Boteco suits deep, low seating where a conventional coffee table would look spindly, and the built-in tray keeps a family room or library surface orderly. In hotel lobbies, suites and lounges, the same tray keeps service items contained. Designers should choose the wood or marble version against the other surfaces in the room, and anyone specifying Grigio Orobico should show the client that veining and duller areas along the veins are characteristics of the stone, not defects.
