Kitchen nook and other cool stuff
A generalized model of a breakfast nook would consist of just a small table, a settee lining a wall, and a few chairs or a single bench lining one side of the table, all set in a small area which is typically near the kitchen. A breakfast nook is actually very different from the standard concept of an expansive dining set. The most relevant factor in their design is to take advantage of shortage of space, so they are designed to ergonometrically make the most efficient possible use of space where it is lacking. The arrangement is intended to fit into corners, and thus takes up very little space for itself. Besides which, another argument in favour is the fact that a breakfast nook looks great.
