Having a window seat in your home is a wonderful bespoke feature that adds a beautiful gateway between your indoor and outdoor spaces. When it comes to a window seat, you want to create a comfy zone with an incredible view. If you are looking for the best fabric to cover cushions for window seats, there are a few things you need to be aware of when making your choice.
Best Fabric for Window Seat Cushions
When planning for your indoor window seat space, it is important to think of it as another chair in your room. It is important to have a durable, long-lasting fabric like Sunbrella that will continue looking beautiful through many years of use. Your window seat cushion will also be exposed to direct sunlight, making fade resistance and UV resistance essential. Our Color to the Core™ technology makes Sunbrella performance fabrics inherently fade resistant, UV protective, and durable, maintaining color and quality through cleaning, wear, and exposure to direct sunlight or the elements.
Sunbrella upholstery fabrics are easy to clean with water and stain resistant technology, keeping your cushions looking like new through dirt, spills, and years of use.

Customization & Fabric Choices
Adding a window seat to your home provides many options for customizing your space. Window seats often have storage underneath or shelves for books and trinkets, so it's a great utilitarian space addition to your kitchen, living, or dining room.
Not all window seats are the same size and shape, you can have a window seat customized to fit your exact space and style.

If you want a dramatic statement piece in your space, choose a window seat fabric in a contrasting color or a bold pattern, drawing the eye with a striking design.
