From budding bookworms to corporate professionals who have carved out an office at home, everyone deserves a space to relax, catch up on reading, and get inspired. You don’t need to venture far to get this kind of experience—your comfy at-home window seat is built for it!

Take a look at today’s blog to see the biggest perks of this cozy feature.

A comforting break from the everyday

If you spend most of your day sitting at a desk, you’re not alone! Even those who work at home are often pining for a comfy place to sit at the end of the day. Fortunately, a window seat offers the exact break that’s needed—a place to catch up on a good book, sip some coffee, or enjoy much-needed downtime.

The benefits of natural light

Natural light is something special—not just for how warm it makes us feel, or how it illuminates just about everything in touches. It’s actually been scientifically proven to affect our moods and our productivity, too!

New York’s Lighting Research Center found that people who occupy spaces lit by natural night feel more comfortable and experience greater productivity—good news for just about anyone who could use some help in tackling projects at work or school. Spending time in daylit spaces can also help you normalize your circadian rhythm and enjoy a better sleep schedule.

A chance to get inspired by natural views

Even the most elegant interior spaces can lack what you need to get inspired—spend some time by a window, however, and you might just spot the trees, outdoor passerby, or one-of-a-kind glimpse of nature needed to get your creativity flowing.

Dual purpose window seats

Many window seats are also perfect for doubling up on your space’s storage, since you can tuck linens, books, and other items below the seat, out of sight. For clearing away easily cluttered spaces, a window seat might just be the surprising hero!

Every window seat, of course, deserves an accompanying window that’s as big, bright, and sturdy as possible. We here at White Aluminum can help you find the replacement windows or custom set you need to enjoy your window seat at home!
