A cozy window nook paired with an amazing view can make your window the perfect spot, easily making it one of your most favorite spaces in your whole home. You might not be able to have the same kind of views that we feature in the collection below, but you can still create your own custom space; whether it be in your breakfast nook/kitchen, home library, under your stairs, on your stair landing, in your living room, dining room, home office, or in your bedroom… the skies the limit! A window nook offers the perfect spot to lounge, read a book, relax or maybe even take a nap! Basically, a window seat will help help you to add life to an otherwise unusable space.

Effectively using a window seat would be integrating one in a passageway, such as on a staircase landing. In doing so, you are infusing life and color to an overlooked area of your home. Adding a nook to your window can present a challenge, how do you most effectively utilize the space to make it attractive and comfortable for you to enjoy. You can add a built-in with cushions, pillows and a plush throw to curl up in, or even a small mattress. You can also do a less permanent option such as a small sofa that fits right into the space.
