Built-In & Storage Seating
Built-in seating is one of the smartest tiny-home moves: it fits the space exactly, seats more people than loose chairs, and turns every base into hidden storage. Pricing is shown per country; regions marked "being researched" are coming soon.
Seating options
Window Seat with Storage
A built-in bench under a window with a lift-up or drawer base. Turns an unused wall into a favourite spot to sit — and a big hidden storage box.
Advantages
- Uses dead wall space
- Lots of hidden storage under
- A lovely spot by the window
- Built-in feel, custom fit
Trade-offs
- Best built in at construction
- Lift-up lids need clearance
- Cushions to buy/make

Banquette / Booth Seating
Café-style bench seating that wraps a corner around the dining table. Seats more people in less space than chairs, and the bases store everything from linen to pantry overflow.
Advantages
- Seats more in less space
- Storage in every base
- No chairs to pull out
- Cosy dining nook
Trade-offs
- Fixed position
- Harder to get into the corner seat
- Best planned early

Storage Bench / Blanket Box
A freestanding bench with a hollow base — extra seating, a coffee-table surface or a footrest, plus a box for blankets and bulky items. No building required.
Advantages
- No construction — just buy it
- Movable
- Seat, surface and storage
- Cheap
Trade-offs
- Less storage than a built-in
- Lid clearance needed
- Not a custom fit

Under-Stair / Step Seating
In a home with loft stairs, the steps and the space beneath them can double as seating and deep drawers — a clever way to use structure you already have.
Advantages
- Uses space that already exists
- Big drawers under the steps
- Doubles as casual seating
- Very space-efficient
Trade-offs
- Only if you have loft stairs
- Built in at construction
- Joinery cost
