If you’ve been contemplating an addition to your décor that’s as functional as it is stylish, an ottoman or bench is one of the most versatile design choices you can make. At Joybird, we love that these clever pieces of furniture can enhance almost any room in your house and are always on hand to provide added seating at a moment’s notice. Put a bench in your entryway or mudroom to offer a chic landing pad for books, bags and groceries as you come in the door. Or place one at the end of a bed to create a polished look in your master bedroom or as a convenient place for luggage in a guest room.
If you’re looking for a way to add oomph to your kitchen or dining room, an ottoman or bench can make an unexpected choice in seating around the dining table that is both inviting and sophisticated. We also love seeing benches used as an extra-long coffee table if you have the space. Ottomans are a great fit as a coffee table too, especially when topped with a wooden tray or other container to hold the TV remote and other knick-knacks. Without a tray on top, this flexible addition to your living room can be used to create an instant chaise lounge for sofas or sectionals, or as a quick stool for extra house guests when needed.
Made from the same high-quality materials we use in all our Joybird creations, you can be sure our benches and ottomans will stand up to however you decide to use them. One of our favorite aspects of these accent pieces is seeing how creative our customers get with design when it comes to upholstery colors and wood finishes. Whether you choose to go for a modern pop of color or opt for a much-loved, more traditional color, we know you’ll relish finding new ways to use your bench or ottoman for years to come.
