There is nothing quite so quaint as a bay window seat – a traditionally aristocratic design feature with roots in the English Renaissance and Victorian eras. While we have long admired the window seat aesthetic, we had almost made peace with the fact that this feature just isn't feasible in many modern homes, but Nicole Kidman may have changed our minds.
The Big Little Lies actress may not have the conventional bay window that is so synonymous with this seat, but her twist on the conventional just made the feature accessible in every type of home. Instead of exhibiting a bespoke, built-in seat, Kidman opted for a wooden bench that (almost perfectly) fits the window area.
