Creating Flexibility With Multi-Purpose Seating Designs
Modern commercial spaces demand flexibility, adapting to different uses, arrangements, and tones while maintaining the style and comfort customers expect. Custom banquette seating can help businesses maintain adaptable designs with these features:
Configurable Arrangements: Banquette seats with modular designs can be shifted based on the space’s needs. These designs are essential for multi-purpose use across different seasons or occasions in event venues, collaborative workspaces, restaurants, and more.
Adjustable Designs: The seats can be customized with multi-purpose features, such as removable sections or folding backs, to promote versatility.
Internal Storage: Banquettes can be customized with built-in storage through hidden compartments to maximize the utility of multi-purpose spaces.
Cohesive Structures: Thoughtfully designed banquette seats should complement surrounding chairs, tables, and decor. In multi-purpose spaces, maintaining a sense of cohesion is key to helping customers feel comfortable in the space.
Improving Space With Custom Layouts
Banquette seats help businesses manage their floor plans and maximize usable space. With the right type and configuration of banquette arrangements, business owners can increase their seating capacity without overcrowding or disrupting flow.
For example, corner banquettes can turn unused corners into usable or desirable seating spaces. Bench-style banquettes can turn a wall into a comfortable row of seats without wasting floor space on chairs. Banquettes customized to be curved or modular can be rearranged within the space to be more flexible. With movable sections, banquettes can serve multiple uses, changing based on the event, crowd level, or available retail space.
Even the design of the seatbacks could be a significant decision. High-backed banquette designs can create intimate spaces within open-plan rooms, while low-backed banquettes promote visibility and transparency. Regardless of the industry, banquette layouts can be carefully crafted to meet a business’s vision for their ideal customer’s experience.
Choosing the Perfect Materials for the Space
Durability, comfort, and style are essential elements of multi-purpose commercial spaces, and the perfect choice of materials can reinforce them all. For example, high-traffic commercial spaces demand materials that can withstand daily use while retaining appeal. For multi-purpose spaces, the choice of material has to balance multiple visions.
For instance, many retail spaces also house restaurants or cafes. This can place a need for luxury customer experiences in the same space as food and drink. Stain-resistant and cleanable textiles such as leatherette and vinyl may make more sense in multi-purpose banquette seating. They can achieve the right balance between durability and luxury. However, the ideal material depends on the specific usage of each space.
In high-traffic spaces, custom banquettes can be supportive and plush, with a foundation of reinforced hardwood and a cushion of high-performance fabrics. Business owners should discuss their ideal balance between aesthetic appeal and long-term maintenance with their contractors. The right custom material is essential to setting the tone while maintaining the seating design for multi-purpose use.
Communicating a Brand Identity
Banquette seating in modern, multi-purpose spaces is more than a choice of function over style. Custom banquettes afford business owners and designers opportunities to communicate their brand’s identity, enhance its appeal, and create more intentional and memorable spaces by helping them customize its features, including:
Creating custom upholstery with colors and patterns that align with a brand’s personality and intended atmosphere
Using cohesive color palettes that create the intended mood and match the decor
Incorporating signature elements such as custom shapes and arrangements that reinforce brand recognition
Creating timeless designs that will remain appealing throughout the fixture’s lifespan
The right custom banquette design can reinforce distinct spaces that customers enjoy using and easily remember. Custom seating artisans work with marketing directors, contractors, and owners to create seating arrangements that match the business’s current aesthetic and intentions for the brand’s identity in the future.
