Dining in Style: 10 Beautiful Banquettes
Dining areas are excellent spaces in which to get creative. The perfect places to incorporate a pop of color, experiment with pattern, or add an eye-catching light fixture, they also lend themselves to a variety of seating options, including one of our favorites: the banquette. Here, we’ve rounded up 10 stylish rooms that feature beautiful tableside benches. As the above example from Greenville, South Carolina-based Caroline Brackett Studio of Design shows, these comfortable and chic pieces will make family and guests feel like they have the best seat in the house.
