Imagine stepping into a room that checks all the boxes for style, function, and comfort. One piece that has all of this versatility is a bench. In the living room, the entryway, or the bedroom, benches not only elevate the room with style but also with function. Serena & Lily has luxury designs that combine top-of-the-line style and utility.
The Entryway: A Warm Welcome
Your entryway is the first thing people see — and a well-chosen bench can make it comfortable and welcoming. A slim, upholstered version adds a layer of sophistication and is also an ideal place to rest while pulling off your shoes or dropping a bag. Combine with a mirror and coat rack for a well-designed look that has plenty of character.
For a look of luxury, go for a design with special details, like tufted cushions or beautifully turned wooden legs.
Living Room: Adding Depth and Dimension
In the living room, a bench can really pull its weight. Use it for extra seating during parties and get-togethers, slide it up to a sofa as a coffee table, or opt for storage underneath to keep magazines and throws in check.
When looking for the right bench, think about what materials will work with your existing pieces. For a touch of bohemian glamor, a velvet bench feels plush and opulent, while a wooden bench with clean lines vibes perfectly with a more minimalist, Scandi aesthetic.
Bedroom Bliss: Function Meets Comfort
In the bedroom, a bench is as useful as it is beautiful. Place it up by the headboard for a pulled-together look that offers a space to set clothes or a place to perch while pulling on your shoes.
For a little something special, look for a bedroom bench that’s covered in a luxe, tactile fabric, like linen or velvet.
Dining Room: A Contemporary Twist
Why use chairs when you can use benches in the dining area? A bench offers an instant hit of modernity and conviviality that’s perfect for relaxing meal times. Not to mention, it’s a great solution when you want to fit a crowd around the table but don’t want to overcrowd the space.
Round out the dining room with a wood dining bench and table or mix and match for a varied and modern look. A good bench elevates your dining experience, regardless if it’s Saturday night with your friends or a Thursday cooking dinner at home.
A Timeless Addition
From the closet to the kitchen to the dining room, a bench works so many miracles in the home. If you are updating your living room or creating a zen oasis in the bedroom, the right bench can change the way you see the room.
