How to Style an Interior with a Bay Window: 9 Tips

If you are the owner of an apartment with a bay window, you're truly lucky, but even such a layout requires thoughtful decoration. We share useful and interesting ideas.

1. Work Area

A comfortable workspace in an apartment is the key to productive work. Choose a bay window desk that fits the size, a comfortable chair, and lighting is no problem at all – the bay window lets in plenty of natural light into the room.

Kitchen Cabinet

In a small bay window, we suggest placing kitchen furniture. It may not be easy to find and choose such a cabinet, but it is definitely worth it. Install a sink or countertop in the bay window, and use the space below for open or closed shelves for storing kitchen utensils.

Dining Area

One of the most popular solutions is a dining area in a bay window. It's enough to choose a table that will look harmonious in the niche. Chairs, a soft sofa, or a bench will all look equally good and easily fit into the interior.

A lounge or platform with a soft carpet will diversify the child's play area. For more comfort, don't forget to hang light curtains on the windows and scatter colorful cushions.

Home Library

Even more space for storing your book and magazine collection: a platform in the niche with open shelves at the base of the seat will create a pleasant atmosphere for reading.

Sofa Area

A sofa in a bay window not only looks stylish but also 'deloads' the room space. Don't be afraid to choose bright colors, creating an accent. Remember about forms: it's preferable that the sofa repeats the geometry of the bay window.

Bathroom with Bay Window

If you own a large bathroom, this bold solution will definitely appeal to you: install a bathtub in the bay window and hang blinds on the windows.

Relaxation Zone

Another solution for bay window design is organizing a space for relaxation where you can read a book or work at the computer. Remember about a proper combination of new furniture with the overall interior style.

A bench with a storage system at the base is an excellent helper for seasonal items. These can be open shelves with wicker baskets, pull-out drawers, or flip-down doors – it's up to you.
