Love a Banquette


I am always intrigued by a breakfast or dining room with a charming banquette.  It adds such a cozy element to the space.  Whether it is more formal such as the tufted, velvet banquette above, or more casual, this is a great way to add style to your room.


I love the lines of this banquette and especially the nailhead detail at the bottom.


This U-shaped banquette provides abundant seating.  To make it more kid-friendly, you could upholster in vinyl- just wipe off the spills!.


Fabulous space in a kitchen to sit with your morning coffee. 


Gorgeous, curved banquette with tufting and nailhead trim.  I like that it backs up to the kitchen island.


A long and lean version with a great curve.


Charming breakfast room complete with matching dog.

 
A bright and sun-filled room.  The banquette provides a comfortable spot to enjoy the lovely view.


A corner banquette.  Wouldn't this be fabulous for a dinner party?   I can see lounging there chatting and drinking wine for hours!



This would be simple to replicate on a budget.  You could use a ready-made storage bench and the oversized back would be an easy DIY project.
