Benches

How to choose the best bench seat

Are you looking for an entryway bench? A hallway bench? A bedroom bench? Do you feel an elegant bench seat would complement traditional living room furniture? Or, is space an issue and creative solutions are required? A sleek bench seat can be the perfect option.

With a vast range of bench seating options from trusted suppliers in New Zealand suited to both indoor and outdoor settings, everything from leather to wood and statement to subtle is a possibility. 

Wooden benches

An ideal option for inside or outdoors in New Zealand, wooden benches create a rustic yet elegant charm. With multiple finishes available – from stained to natural, classic to modern, and a variety of different timbers to choose from, wooden benches are a strong and durable option that will complement any space. For additional comfort and to add a creative flair, add a range of cushions to a wooden bench seat and complete the setting.  

Different benches materials and sizes

Upholstered benches come in different sizes and styles to suit different needs. A small bench can be a practical and space-saving solution for a hallway or entryway, providing a comfortable place to sit while taking off shoes. A lounge bench, on the other hand, can serve as a cozy and inviting seating option in a living room or bedroom. A leather bench is a timeless investment that can add a touch of sophistication to any space. With their versatile design and durability, upholstered benches are an excellent choice for those looking to elevate their interior decor.

End of bed bench

In New Zealand, an end of bed bench is ideal for perching on, adding an extra decorative dimension to the bedroom – or as somewhere to throw extra cushions. Match it to the bedroom suite or choose a contrasting colour or style to make it a feature. An end of bed bench provides endless options for your bedroom.

Combining bench seats with storage

Storage benches are a practical solution to combine seating and storage in New Zealand. They’re a great option when space is at a premium, for the storage of everything from shoes to blankets, and a clever solution for kids’ bedrooms as a place for toys. Outside, bench seats with storage are popular for those occasional use items that need to be kept protected from the weather for the majority of the time.

Mix benches and lounge furniture 

For a lounge, there are plenty of seating options to choose from. Bean bags and poufs are versatile options that can be easily moved around to accommodate guests. For those looking for a more traditional seating arrangement, sofas and armchairs are a popular choice. Lounge suites offer a coordinated look with multiple seating options. Chaise lounges and daybeds provide a comfortable spot to relax and stretch out. And for those looking for ultimate comfort, recliners are the way to go. To add some extra comfort and style to any of these seating options, ottomans and poufs make for great footrests or additional seating. With so many options available, it's easy to find the perfect seating arrangement to suit any living space.
