Iron brackets (vs. legs or box-platform. Legs are still the most attractive though...)

Love, love, love the legs. Also, noting the seat is below the window frame and looks perfectly appropriate.

Huh. Interesting use of narrow, hanging box banquette. Could incorporate drawers...

Love, love, love the chairs (low back, sleek profile, will not block water view from living room).
Banquette backs are a shame though. Doubt if they provide much comfort, and only serve to block view.

Nice use of end drawers if a box support (painted to match walls) is used. Also, nice use of corners (i.e., angles).

Again, legs much nicer than box support.

Prefer bench with legs vs. box support. These tapered legs are practically perfect.
