Reasons for choosing banquette instead of chairs for dining rooms

If you think of an elegant dinner table, you will think immediately of a impressive solid wood table and some elegant chairs which will make of your dinner area a great place where you can welcome your guests. These days I have visited an aunt of mine and I loved to sit in her kitchen where she has a comfortable banquette.

I remember that the moment she bought it she had thought of the space in the kitchen. She is an excellent cooker and she has always wanted to have a spacious kitchen. So, instead of using some chairs she used this banquette. She saved a lot of space and you can feel very comfortable and cozy when you sit at the table.
