Everything curved is a great trend in home decor that is here to stay: curved furniture, arched doorways and windows, soft lines and smooth surfaces are all about up-to-date decor. One of such features that you may add to your home is an arched niche, an architectural feature that is sure to elevate the style of your space and bring in some decorative value. Here are some ideas of incorporating arched niches into your home decor and ways to style them but first let’s clear out
What Is An Arched Niche?
It’s a recess in a wall, usually one that contains a statue or ornament, some decor, shelves or some other items – today these niches are getting much more functional.
What Do I Need An Arched Niche For?
Every house has some dead space, and such awkward nooks can be taken by niches adding decorative value and functionality to your home. Besides, arched niches can be used in a practical way: you may put lights inside, and if a niche is big, you can go for a bathtub or a bed in it.
Arched Niches With Decor
The main reason why we go for arched niches is decorative value that they bring: you build in some shelves and even cabinets and store and display various artwork, vases, books and potted plants there. If it’s a small niche, you won’t have to build in some shelves, just use it as a shelf. Show off the story of your family and give character to the space using niches and decorating them.

Practical Arched Niches
Need more functionality than decorative value? Use your niche as a working space! Build in a small desk and add a lamp plus a stool and voila! Go for a home bar, coffee and tea station placed in a niche, put some cabinets and shelves and all the stuff you may need there. A large niche can be turned into a seating or a sofa with pillows, and if it’s a bathroom, you may accommodate a whole vanity or a bathtub there!
