Ottomans & End of Bed Storage
12The advantages of end-of-bed furniture
They save storage space while maintaining a harmonious bedroom design. Instead of leaving the bed's structure visible, they dress it up with style, while providing ever-appreciable storage space. With an attractive bed chest, things finally find their place. By choosing a bed end or a bed bench - the room now has a place to sit or prepare the next day's clothes.If you're still wondering why you should buy a chest bench, there are several to choose from.
First of all, consider the practicality of this type of furniture: offering you a customizable seat, you can open it up and store a multitude of things inside. The seat can also be customized, as you can choose a simple wooden chest bench and make it more cosy by adding soft cushions on top, so you can sit as comfortably as possible. And even if it doesn't have a backrest, there's nothing to stop you positioning it close to a wall so you can lean against it - again, adding cushions for added back comfort.
When it comes to storage, it's up to you to decide what you want to store: more cushions, plaids or blankets, books or even toys... The bench chest gives you plenty of extra storage space!
Meticulous materials
When looking for your future chest bench, you'll quickly realize that there are a wide variety of models, each more beautiful than the last. Your choice of material will depend solely on your tastes and needs in terms of interior design and ambience.
In fact, you can opt for a basic, all-wood chest bench, for a characteristically minimalist feel. For a more bohemian feel, consider a rattan bench, a hard-wearing material with a proven track record.
If you want to add a touch of refinement to your interior, opt for a bench covered in fabric (cotton, velvet, linen), upholstered or not. Not only will it be more comfortable, but the result will be all the more stunning!
The bench box, to be installed wherever you want
When we think of a bench, we immediately think of a table to arrange it around. But a chest bench offers far more options than that.
You can, of course, choose to install it at your own table: whether in the dining room to add cutlery, or in the living room to provide extra seating for a board game or a film on TV.
But you can also decide to install a chest bench in your bedroom: ideal at the foot of the bed, it allows you to sit on it in the morning while getting ready and offers you extra storage in which you can keep your bed linen, for example, or clothes or any other object you want to keep within easy reach.
More original, the bench can also be placed in the bathroom! In this room, which is usually sorely lacking in seating space, the bench offers you a comfortable place to sit when you get out of the shower or during your beauty treatments. What's more, you can store both towels and beauty products waiting to be used in the trunk.
