When you invest in pieces that can be used in multiple ways you’re giving yourself the option to move pieces around and create a fresh look when your home needs a change. A bench is a perfect example of a piece that will serve your home for many years and serve many purposes. Every home needs a bench and here are five ways to use them to add style and function.

Decorate a blank wall with a bench. It could be in a hallway, an entry, or even a hard-to-decorate spot in the living room. Anchor the wall with a bench, add some unique wall decor and a flour poof and you instantly have a useful and pretty space.

Mix up your dining room seating. A bench is an easy way to get a mix-and-match look in a dining space. A combination of materials like leather and metal can bring a more casual feel to a formal space, which means guests will always feel relaxed. Plus the Taylor bench has a soft upholstered seat which means guests will be comfortable too.

Place a bench at the foot of the bed. Always a classic look, it creates a more cozy feel which is always a welcome touch in the bedroom. Plus, you’ll appreciate the functionality it adds to the space. It’s an extra seat or a place to toss decorative pillows at night while you’re sleeping.

Use small benches in pairs. They have just as much style power and are extremely versatile. Place a pair of small benches underneath a console for a pretty look and extra seating that can be pulled out when needed. These Scandinavian inspired benches are a pretty addition to any space.
