My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Love the bench cushion idea. How do you keep them in place?

    Banquette seating has been making a huge resurgence over the past few years. The most basic (and economical) way to keep those cushions in place is to use self adhesive velcro. Easy-peasy and you can do it yourself. However, the downfall to this is that the cushions won't be reversible if the sustain a spill. Another solution would be to add velcro tabs to the corners that wrap around and hang from wall mounted posts. This will allow cushions to be reversible. Happy decorating!

    Is the back of the banquette angled and if so, can you tell me the measurements? Also, what is the fabric on the back of the banquette?
