Cozy Nook at Home: 5x Inspiration
zithoekje in huis: 5x inspiratie

When you think of a sofa, you often think of the living room. But there are so many other spaces and places in the house where you can create a cozy seating area. And it doesn't have to be a powerhouse of a couch. No, precisely with modular sofas and many separate elements you can go in any direction. There's always a configuration that fits your space. From a handy bench in the hallway to a comfortable seating area in a home office: in this blog, we share 5 inspiring ideas for an extra seating nook in your home. 

seating nook in the play or children's room 

Children also need comfort and enjoy having a place where they can relax or retreat with a book. Elements are also easy to detach. This allows you to use the elements for other purposes as well. How about building a fort? Add some pillows and blankets and voilà; we bet your kids will absolutely love it!

Model X6 – our deep lounge sofa – is the perfect addition for a seating nook in the play or children's room. We have furnished our own children's room seating area with element 5 in #03 beige and pouf 1 in the cozy #10 teddy ecru ECO. Teddy fabric and children? That goes better than you think. The polyester teddy fabric is easy to clean.  

bench for the hallway  

The hallway is a functional, but often underutilized space. Our solution? The hallway bench: the piece of furniture where functionality and design perfectly come together. Great for taking off your shoes without hassle or for just plopping down after a long day before entering the living room. With a nice design, it immediately becomes a good eye-catcher.

The elements of model X4 – our organic modular sofa – don't need much to shine on their own, thanks to the vertical curvature on the seat. Pouf 1 in color #18 ecru melange is the perfect eye-catcher for your hallway. Looking for a different type of pouf? Check out our extensive collection of poufs and footstools.

furnishing a seating nook in the home office  

For some time now, (partially) working from home has been the new normal. If you have the space, a comfortable workspace at home is very pleasant. Think beyond standard office furniture, such as a desk and office chair. With a few elements, you can easily create a small sofa for your home office. Perfect for an informal online meeting or if you need a moment of rest during work.

Model X2 – our extra spacious modular sofa – fits perfectly in your home office due to its relaxed comfort. With element 2 and the semicircular pouf 12 in #09 beige melange, you create the perfect organic, small sofa.  

what to do with an empty corner in the house? 

It sounds like a luxury problem, but what can you do to fill that empty corner in your house? Create a cozy seating nook, of course! Every empty corner could use some love, and a round seating element happens to be the match made in heaven for empty corners in the house. This seating nook can be used for surprisingly many purposes: from an extra seating area for visitors to reading a book or taking a moment away from everyone else. It'll be a fight for the best spot in the house!
