1 PROVIDE FUNCTIONAL SEATING
Bench seating provides a practical place to sit while putting on shoes or preparing a bag to go out for the day. Incorporating additional storage under the seating for hiding away wellies, walking boots and trainers will always prove invaluable,' suggests Louisa Eggleston, creative director at Humphrey Munson.
A seating area is also a way to add character. 'Although a boot room is a functional space, it is still part of the home and the design should be treated with the same care as a sitting room, says Louise Wicksteed, design director at Sims Hilditch. Choose patterned cushions for bench seating or a fun shade to paint the joinery.'
