I find dining banquettes to be one of the coziest (and most comfortable) ways to dine, and while they’re often built into a kitchen or breakfast room design, it’s easy to get this look without a kitchen renovation with some of the dining banquettes on the market. Of course you can always just pull up a sofa or settee to your dining table (like I did in my dining makeover here), but there are several key elements to consider when incorporating a banquette into your dining arrangement. First off, there should be no arms on the piece (or extremely low arms). This makes it easiest to slide in and out of the seat. The other key sizing rule to follow is to make sure the banquette extends beyond the width of the table, to allow for scooching in and out of the piece.
