Working the industrial aspect
a relatively affordable option is a library of scaffolding made of planks and steel pipes, which taps right into the trend industrial chic. If you are a competent DIY-er, to the merchant's head to your local builder or regenerated armed lumberyard measures?
Otherwise, ask a carpenter to fashion something similar. Here, a gray background highlights this strange corner, but the paint or colored wallpaper might work as well, especially if the shelves are full of books and colored cheeky glimpses can be seen.

Create built -in seating
like windows, alcoves are ideally placed to create bench-style seats with flip-up top and storage underneath. If you are always having to bring folding chairs and dining room for parties and gatherings, this could be the perfect permanent solution.
These seats can be easily updated by changing the upholstery few years, or opt for a plain fabric to give you the flexibility to trade around cushions whenever you fancy a change instead.
