Seating Solutions in Other Rooms: Banquettes are a great idea anywhere you have space and a need for seating and storage. Add a lovely window seat in the living room or hallway. Tucked into a nook in the study or library, a banquette is a great place to read or scrapbook. Is the space an awkward shape like under a bay window? No worries; your home renovation company can custom build your new seating to fit almost anywhere.
