I need to build a "L" booth for the corner of our kitchen. (Technically a Banquette I suppose)
We want a padded seat and I'm struggling with the seating dimensions.
What is a typical foam thickness and density for something like this? 2", 3", 4"?
If I'm shooting for a particular seat height how much is the foam going to compress?
Any rules of thumb for the angle of the seat back? I was thinking 10 degrees sloped back.
If I have a padded seat is there any reason to put a few degree slope on the seat itself?
I'd like to have something that is comfortable. I was thinking of doing a mock-up to double check the design but if I can narrow down some of these dimensions maybe I can just do one mock-up. Or, if this is all pretty standard stuff I can get away without doing a mock-up.
