Kitchen benches and corners were popular many years ago, but then they became a thing of the past, preference was given to more stylish options for dining areas. However, the corner seats do not always look tasteless in front of you!

1 Cozy scandi kitchen with wooden corner bench

It seems that the basis of this bench is the standard frame of the corner, so popular 20-30 years ago. But it was worth removing the typical upholstery from it, adding up-to-date textiles, surrounding it with modern details in the Scandi style, as the corner began to play in a new way. Even the classic reddish color of the wood is not striking, it is smoothed out by the white walls and furniture around. The bench was accompanied by trendy chairs with rattan inserts. An additional accent on this dining area is created by a hanging lamp (also made of rattan) and a gallery of posters on both walls.

2 A small leather corner in the colored kitchen

The two-tone kitchen in the photo looks quite restrained. A mustard-colored leather corner and a colorful carpet with ethnic motifs are the main visual accents here. The frame of the bench itself is part of the headset, and the composition ends with the same pedestal, due to this, the room looks as solid as possible. Such solutions are available mainly if you make a custom kitchen. A full-fledged dining room in this house is located in a separate room, and a kitchen corner is a convenient compact option for some cases when a formal dining room is not needed. The softness and texture of this location is given by wallpaper with a small soft print, artificial skin, boho-style pillows. Pay attention to how interestingly the niche is decorated not just in the form of shelves with decor, but behind glass doors, like a sideboard.

3 Dining area with round table, corner seat and rattan chairs

This kitchen with white furniture is very spacious, and its corner part is occupied by a small dining area also with a bench and a couple of chairs. Due to the proximity of large windows and access to the street (this is a private house), the most relaxing summer atmosphere reigns in this place, and the owners emphasize it with fresh flowers in the center of the round table. The elegant glass chandelier in the Art Deco style gives the zone a great grandeur. There are no soft covers on the corner bench, but numerous pillows can be used for this. Its frame has the same facades as a kitchen set, and storage space is hidden under the seat.

4 Corner with ample storage space in a bright kitchen

This corner seat also boasts roomy storage spaces: a higher and deeper corner is equipped with not just storage sections, but two levels of drawers. For comfort, a thin textile mattress was placed on the surface, and soft backs on leather straps were suspended from the walls on a fishing line. To give this place solidity and seriousness, quite massive fabric chairs without armrests were placed next to it. By the way, have you noticed that round tables are used in many such zones? They help to remove excessive angularity and bring geometric harmony.

5 Cozy dining area under a sloping roof

The sloping roof gives comfort and warmth to any room, there is no exception. But the owners picked up on this idea, and the whole area turned out to be very friendly and inviting to family meetings. One wall above the kitchen corner is covered with a variety of decor (which changes from time to time): posters, planters, panels, mirrors. The other one consists almost entirely of windows, which is why the whole room is filled with daylight. The frame of the seat does not stand on legs, but is suspended, which enhances the effect of lightness and airiness in the kitchen.

6 Small monochrome kitchen with a seating area

Another example is when a stereotypically old-fashioned solution turns into a stylish result. The interior of this apartment is decorated in a modern style with an admixture of aesthetics of the 70s, and such a soft gray corner in the kitchen fits perfectly into the style. Small legs give it elegance, and tactile pleasant velour upholstery looks expensive and noble. The seat has a small table in the same color scheme on an unusual leg that seems to spread across the floor.
