11 inspiring window seat designs provide a place to perch or relax (even snooze) and add style to any room in the house, often with the bonus of built-in storage

The bottom also does double duty with a bank of flush-front drawers that hold legal-size file folders.
Tip: Make your seat feel more sheltered by lowering the ceiling
a few inches with a soffit that slopes toward the window.
