Functional Breakfast Nook
We specialize in kitchen restyling, and we think adding a bay window is perfect for a seating area. Not only is a bay window breakfast nook adorable. It’s functional, too. The extra space offered by a bay window is ideal for this functional and fun purpose. The best idea is to add a built-in bench along the window, like a bay window seat. This allows for optimal space and fits perfectly with the curved shape of the bay window. We recommend a dining table that fits well with whatever shape your window bench is. Looking for more design ideas for your bay window seating area? Consider a statement light above the dining area, like a chandelier.

All you need is a window seat, and maybe some comfy throw pillows, and your cozy reading nook is complete. The best part about a window seat? A built-in bench can have storage for your favorite books and blankets.
