Banquette island

Designer Candice Brown shares how she transformed this farmhouse kitchen into a family's sanctuary.

I've been meaning to share an update on our banquette kitchen island for a while! Here's a look at the before and after photos — so much more space.

Well-appointed white and gray kitchen features black wooden dining chairs placed at an oval wooden dining table matched with a gray plank built-in dining bench.

A banquette is a bench meant to provide extra table-adjacent seating, and it's usually upholstered. If you're someone who has always preferred the intimacy and comfort of a restaurant booth instead of sitting in regular old chairs, then it's high-time you treat yourself to a banquette at home.
