Insight

Getting creative with window sill ideas is a brilliant way to really add character and interest to your home.Not only do window sills provide a practical purpose – bridging the gap between wall and window frame – but, given the right treatment, they can also perform other functions, from seating to storage.

Here, we have pulled together some of the best window sill ideas around to ensure that, no matter what window styles you have chosen, this seemingly unimportant detail doesn’t let your interior scheme down.

 

1. Make a Window Sill Seat

A window seat is one of the best ways to make the most of a window sill. There are plenty of brilliant window seat ideas out there, that not only look beautiful and add a real sense of warmth and character to any kind of interior scheme, but also make the most of the space you have available.

In a bedroom, a window seat makes a great feature — not everyone has space for a chair or sofa, but by turning your sill into a spot to nestle down, you overcome the issue.In fact, any room can benefit from a window seat — it really encourages people to take a moment to just sit and enjoy the views. Some window seats incorporate storage beneath, while others are simply there for comfort.

 

2. All-in-One Worktop Window Sill

Keeping your kitchen worktop at the same height as your window sill – as opposed to building an upstand – creates a sleek, streamlined look in the kitchen. This kitchen window idea also allows for a deeper work surface which can be very practical — as well as minimising nooks and crannies for dirt to lodge within.

If this is an idea you like, be sure to let your worktop supplier know — you want to avoid joins and seams in your worktop material. If you decide to locate your sink in front of the window, it is also important to ensure your window is protected from any water that might reach it.
