Seating Built Into Your Bay Window

Custom bay window seating designed and installed in the Triangle area.

When you have a bay window in your Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill or the surrounding Triangle area home, the space underneath it is often awkward to furnish with standard furniture. A custom-built bench fits the exact curve and width of your window, turning that space into a comfortable seat with storage underneath. You get a piece that follows the shape of the window without gaps and provides cushioned seating that you can use for reading, sitting, or extra guests.


Artistic Furniture Creations & Carpentry, LLC builds bay window seating using quality lumber and hardware, measuring the window frame and floor space before construction begins. You can add built-in storage underneath with lift-up seats or drawers, and the finish is matched to your trim or flooring. The bench is installed by the crew that built it, and a warranty is included depending on the scope of your project. The work is backed by local craftsmen who stand behind what they create.

How the Bench Is Measured and Installed

The process starts with measuring the width, depth, and curve of your bay window in your Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill or Triangle area home. You choose the type of wood, finish, and whether you want storage underneath with lift-up seats or pull-out drawers. The bench is built off-site using the lumber and hardware selected during planning, then brought to your home for installation and leveling.


After installation, you will see a bench that follows the curve of your window without gaps, a cushioned seat that is comfortable for daily use, and storage that keeps blankets, books, or other items out of sight. The finish will match your baseboards or window trim, and the bench will feel like it was always part of the room.


Installation includes securing the bench to the wall and floor for stability, fitting any hinges or drawer slides so they open smoothly, and making sure the seat is level. The crew cleans up sawdust and leftover materials before leaving. This service does not include cushions or upholstery, but it does include building a stable base that is ready for seating.
