A Cozy Nook with a View
A window seat (vensterbank or zitje in het raam) is a small bench built into the recess of a window, often found in a bay window (erker) or a deep-set window frame. It is a charming and highly coveted feature that creates a perfect, cozy spot for reading, enjoying a cup of coffee, or simply watching the world go by. A window seat maximizes usable space, often including built-in storage drawers or cabinets beneath the bench. It adds a touch of comfort and personality to a room, turning a simple window into a functional and inviting architectural feature.
