A Seating Nook Under The Stairs Offers A Quiet Place To Read In This Home








Los Angeles designer and architect Rob Diaz has completed his latest project, the contemporary renovation of a home in Sherman Oaks, California, and included in the updated interior, is a built-in seating nook.





The wood-lined seating nook is located under the stairs and adjacent to the living room.





The seating nook includes a large white textured cushion as well as some smaller pillows, two shelving niches, and lighting. Underneath the seating, there's four hardware-free drawers, ideal for storing blankets and games.

From this angle, which also shows the design of the stairs, you can see how neatly the seating nook and storage are tucked away into the available space.

Let’s take a look around the rest of the house…





The Exterior





The design goals for the home were to incorporate a blend of European influences with a relaxed, understated elegance evocative of Southern California living. The front of the home features a low-maintenance garden with a small designated area for seating.
