When You Know Better You Do Better
A foyer, hallway, or entryway are all perfect places to add a modern bench. It’s an awesome way to add style and sophistication to any blank area.
The height of the average entryway bench is 18″-20″. Some of the benches in this round-up are as low as 15.5″ which is perfectly fine UNLESS you have bad knees.
In which case, I would go for the higher bench size since it’ll be better on those joints. That also goes for those with elderly family members who visit on a regular and like to sit down before they walk out the door.
I hope these entryway bench resources brought you value and inspire you to design a modern home you love!
