Some homes are blessed with cosy window seats where you can admire a good view, read a book, sit down with a cup of tea or just relax.

Do you have anything yellow in your home?
Comments (19)Hi Emmeline yes it's a wall mural by photowall, it's a very small lounge but I decided to brighten it up a bit! Was approx £170. The mushroom chair was from Bluesuntree but is now discontinued. http://www.photowall.co.uk/photo-wallpaper/retrospectra-1...See MoreWhat type of art do you have in your home?
Comments (26)As someone who taught Textile design on a degree course (before retirement) and prior to that worked in a famous national gallery, I have extremely eclectic taste. I have work painted by myself, work collected from other artists, limited edition prints, framed ephemera, and even two very large antique Victorian watercolors in gold frames - which I wouldn't probably buy these day, but do provide a bit of "weight" and gravitas in rooms. I like to put them against ultra modern lighting and pieces of furniture to give a bit of edge and conversely, put modern art against a couple of pieces of antique furniture we have....See MoreQuestion : Best Smart Home Products ?

Comments (5)We've had the 'Pockethome' heating system by Elektrobock installed for a few years now and have found it to be fantastic - separate time- and temperature- control of every room. Must say, though, that I'm considering an upgrade to the Honeywell Evohome system. Mostly on spurious aesthetic grounds but possibly justifiable for consumer research on behalf of clients! Hopefully the technology will remain sufficiently open to avoid the old VHS / Betamax battle......See MoreHow many televisions do you have in your house?
Comments (8)Hello Teenytinyhouse, I have to say that I don't watch tv and have not had one for 10 years! I hate them dominating the living room which is not the focus in my eyes! I do love the idea of a roll down canvas for a projector but don't have one as yet but when I do it will be fixed to the ceiling in front of the fireplace roughly... Have to say I like the way you refer to it (TV) as idiot box.. I do miss certain aspects.. Namely.... David Attenborough on anything, Panorama, Scientific programs et al and Columbo! I may have a dvd or two(enty! : ) )...See More

8 years agoWe have a square bay window overlooking the front garden with a great window seat. I used a 10 cm foam block (covered with good quality tight woven fabric) which makes long-term sitting more comfortable and a couple of wedge cushions for back support on either side as well as lots of cushions.
We store all our photographic equipment underneath the seat as it's dry. The window seat is a great place for one person to sprawl, two people to sit and chat and (on occasion) four people to sit when we've got a crowd. I wouldn't be without it! Tip: Extend the curtain track round to the wall either side of the bay so you can store the curtains away from the window to maximise light.
