corner seat

L-shaped section spot

A corner seat is a seat positioned at the angle where two sides meet, whether in a booth, on a sofa, or in a stadium section.

Corner seats often offer advantages—more space, better views, or the comfort of having a wall on one side: She always claimed the corner seat at family dinners.

On trains and buses, corner seats by the window are prized for privacy.
