So what is "communal" kitchen seating? A more casual seating area than a designated dining room, a communal or eat-in kitchen facilitates moments in this room for friends and family to gather around and eat, wine, and dine. A seating like this could be around an island, on or small informal dining within the kitchen, a banquette, or a window seat. These spaces allow the family and guests to interact with the person who is cooking, contribute to the prep work, and without breaking the flow of the space, simply settle down and enjoy the freshly cooked feast.
If you're looking to add more functionality to this space and want to experiment with this latest kitchen trend to create intimate moments for the family, then communal seating is a great way to go. Take a look at these examples.
