"Les Ensembliers' Richard Ouellette and Maxime Vandal designed this kitchen with busy family life in mind. A banquette is an easy spot for kids to hang out while dinner is being prepared. A soft green fabric on the bench cushions and throw pillow adds a hit of color to the mostly white space, and dark window hardware adds country charm."

Plumping up the bay window, a banquette she designed is covered in Gretchen Bellinger linen velvet; the custom ottoman is casually draped in Rogers and Goffigon striped ticking. Floral linen pillows are a Travers print, the blue velvet are Fonthill. The red swing-arm lamps were found at Nicholas Antiques; japanned brackets and tole tray came from Atelier Branca."

" 'I built that window seat where there used to be a balcony to make a banquette nook in the kitchen. If you have a balcony or just a little extra space, you should always try to add a window seat where you hadn't necessarily thought of it - even in your bedroom, if you have a little niche. It brings a nice feeling to any place where you're going to want to sit and get cozy.' " Mary McDonald said to Veranda.
