To want a sofa in my kitchen?

[Rexthesnail]

Or an egg chair?

I have a very large kitchen diner, one side is the kitchen and the other side is for dining. We don't often use the table, so im thinking of getting a drop leaf table that can stay in the corner, then getting a sofa, or more ideally an egg chair, and a couple of house plants. Both me and my DC have additional needs so the idea would be to put fluffy blankets and I'd make some curtains of tulle curtains for the egg chair so that when needed, we can enclose ourselves in there and calm down/take a minute.

Is this a stupid idea? Will it look daft? We hardly use the space as it is so it would be nice to make use of this space.

I used to have a small sofa in my large kitchen. And very nice it was too, stretching out with a cup of tea whilst waiting for whatever it was in the oven.
