banquette
a little too white but the bones of the idea are there. Tray ceiling I love and it opens to a slider like ours. The built-ins are great. The banquette the right proportion. still has the comfort problem with the straight sided bench on the bottom though. i want something people can sit in and feel good in for hours. the Test is: "Will ken want to sit there or beg people to go the sofas"
this is very similar to what I have in mind. Storage, banquette on a non-windowed wall. The banquette has store but look NOT comfortable to sit very long though due to straight sides and no legg room. But otherwise, very close to the idea. White? Don't love the pendants as they are now perhaps more dated. table legs make sense.
