Having easy access to plastic cups, napkins, placemats and silverware within banquette drawers, kids can be tasked with age-appropriate chores like setting the table and unloading the dishwasher. This banquette from Krieger + Associates Architects matches the rest of the kitchen’s pulls and Poggenpohl cabinetry.
No matter who's sitting, jumping or spilling on its benches, a banquette can still look fabulous long-term if it's upholstered in a wipeable, nonstaining fabric like this vinyl from Robert Allen Design. Other kidproof fabrics to consider are microfiber and outdoor fabrics from companies such as Sunbrella.
Storage cavities under benches, in this case drawers fashioned by Podesta Construction, facilitate quick stuffing of kid clutter (toys, art supplies and those rapidly multiplying sippy cups) when unexpected company drops by.
Tip: Pillows upholstered in an inexpensive material can serve as boosters to bring smaller children up to a convenient height.
If you want to be able to close off the kitchen but still want an open feeling and light, install a door made of a translucent material. You can shut it to block out cooking smells or sounds without feeling completely closed off from the rest of the house.

5. Tool display. A collection of paint-dipped bread boards is hung just like an art installation here. Even if tools are just for looks, hang them out in the open. This could also work with rolling pins or cake molds.
