Sometimes the best solution for an awkward table space, or even just for a different look, is a banquette! This type of seating is extremely family friendly and allows for many kids to pile on in. They are cozy and fun and most importantly they can look so pretty.
Many people wonder where to even begin when creating this beautiful little nook and we are here to help! Since a standard table height is 30 inches, the perfect bench seat would sit at 18 inches. This allows a good foot clearance from the top of the bench to the bottom for the table. Additionally, the table should overlap the bench about 3-4 inches.
The seating depth should be right around 18 inches and you should also allow about 21 inches of seating width per person. Also - if you are looking for more storage in your kitchen, providing drawers or doors underneath the banquette is a perfect use of otherwise wasted space!
We have two banquettes currently in the works at Green Prestige Decors! Continue following our social media for more exciting details.
