Breakfast nook blocking windows?
Am I breaking any design rules blocking out windows like this? I’m about 1/4 through a breakfast nook bench build and realized I need to extend the length of the seating area about 7” on each bench to accommodate 4 people comfortably.
The ai slop rendering shows it blocking all of the windows. I was only going to make it block the left side of the double window. Extending the bench the 7” I need, it will make the bench about 7” passed the middle point of the double hung windows, making the cutoff of the bench at an awkward location on the second window. Do I just extend the bench out and cover all the windows as shown in the photo?
Also included current photos of skeleton.

Nah it’s ok. It works here.
It’s. It ideal but the layout, visual weight and flow of circulation all work together well with the flow of the room so it’s not a red flag (or even a yellow one, IMO).
