HOME + GARDEN
COSY CORNERS
Nothing beats a cosy nook and the kitchen shouldn’ t be exempt in that rule. Dining nooks that double as reading corners, workspaces or simply a place to relax can transform an awkward corner into a functional and inviting kitchen space. These nooks act as a hub for the whole family, making them perfect for every style, budget and home, whether it’ s a small pop-up table with a couple of stools or chairs, or a built-in window seat banquette dressed with cushion covers and throws. These spaces should be something you wake up looking forward to, especially when it comes to breakfast!

“ Designing dedicated dining nooks creates a great space in the kitchen( or just off it) for everyday use and for socialising with friends and family. Using banquette seating on one side will add texture, storage and convenient seating for any occasion. Adding tongue and groove elements to the area can be a lovely design element that adds a new but classic element to the dining space.”
