Luxury Banquette Seating

Banquettes can redefine the dining area, through a combination of sophisticated design and elegant upholstery. By introducing commercial banquette seating, SENTIENT strives to elevate the hospitality experience, and offer stylistically diverse models across a plethora of layouts. Through an artistic story of elegance and the highest ideal of ergonomic design, we manufacture the luxury dining booth as the centerpiece of hospitality and comfort. Born from the New York design scene, and made of solid wood and premium upholstery, our commercial banquettes aim to set the standard for restaurant and lobby furniture worldwide.

Solid wood and premium fabrics –
the secret to building banquette furniture

Banquette seating ideas can reimagine interior décor through various artistic expressions. By weaving together form and function, this impressive product becomes a staple of commercial furniture. Imposing and durable, it demands a laborious woodworking process. Challenging as they are, upholstered banquette arrangements provide a canvas where our experience, creativity, and expertise roam freely. Building a banquette takes an orchestrated effort where design talent unites perfectly with artisanal craftsmanship, to create unforgettable statement furniture.

Our banquettes rely on responsibly sourced wood from nearby Pennsylvania, which undergoes the necessary treatment and preparation for increased strength, resilience, and durability. All models are handmade, with quality hardwoods and premium materials. From walnut, maple, and oak to luxurious leather, velvet, classic linen, and an infinite array of custom fabrics, we create unlimited options that artfully combine solid wood with high-end upholstery, including customer own materials and a range of suggestions.

To achieve the perfect banquette seating layout, and create a cohesive narrative between function and style, we cherish collaboration through every step of the process. All of our models are manufactured in-house, at our facility in Brooklyn, where we work closely with independent designers to materialize every creative vision. This flexibility allows for an impressive breadth of restaurant seating ideas and banquette-style seating in particular, designed for high-traffic commercial areas and upscale venues. The final product offers unmatched sophistication, privacy, and an acoustic barrier that redefines the guest experience.

Corner banquettes

Bringing elegance to every corner of the room, our stationary banquette models provide a captivating stylistic expression. With custom dimensions and attention to detail, corner banquette seating becomes the coziest place in the house. From straight angles to curved benches, SENTIENT delivers ergonomic designs with unmatched durability.

Modular banquette furniture

Hospitality lounges and high-traffic areas benefit greatly from modular furniture, allowing for infinite experimentation with the interior layout. Our modular designs offer convenience and sophistication that are meant to impress visitors and elevate the space they inhabit.

Banquette seating with storage

Boutique restaurants and lobby areas can redefine their furniture layout through the introduction of storage options within their seating arrangement. Through solid wood craftsmanship and impressive finishes, we create intricate storage departments within our built-in banquette models. There is no better way to maximize space and efficiency, without compromising style. Our designs can embrace the idea of minimalism, by allowing aesthetic consistency and functionality to exist in concert.

Curved banquette seating

Through advanced steam bending techniques and sophisticated craftsmanship, we transform quality hardwoods into elegant models with impeccable curvature. Meant for small and intimate dining areas, or airy and open spaces, curved designs add style and function through unforgettable comfort. Being a testament to luxurious design and artisanal vision, the semi-circle or the wavy banquette can redefine the dining experience and transform the restaurant layout.

Built-in banquettes

SENTIENT has a team of professionals ready to take measurements and modify the design blueprint accordingly, so that the final product is a perfect fit. Built-in banquettes are a sophisticated option for those who want to maximize space without sacrificing aesthetics – a distinct option to enhance the visual narrative.

Stand-alone or adjacent to walls

The iconic island banquette is a charming addition to any restaurant furniture layout, offering unmatched privacy and comfort. Alternatively, our clients can choose infinitely customizable benches, partially installed against walls, with padding and cushion support that blends or contrasts the interior design environment.

Our bespoke models decorate boutique hotels and well-known restaurants, where they elevate the dining experience of guests and visitors. Designed to stand the test of time, they represent the pinnacle of custom hospitality furniture. They complement fine cuisine with extraordinary comfort, by creating a continuum between the lounge and the dining area. It is no wonder that the built-in banquette is becoming a designer favorite for residential areas as well, decorating the modern kitchen.

We also work with independent designers and leverage our manufacturing expertise to fully transform the restaurant layout, through an adequate match of dining tables that fit into the overall floor plan and complement the adjacent banquettes.
