Bench in the kitchen

Usually when my mother, "Chi Moi" friend and relatives visit me, they like to chit chat in my kitchen as my kitchen is open concept (dry and wet together), an island at the middle of the kitchen. In order to let visitors have more space to sit , so I get my husband to do a simple bench to place in the kitchen. Surprisingly his came out with a good design, this bench can be sit and can be store stuffs.
