Google images - for bay window seat and you will find many images e.g: -
http://www.plesums.com/wood/livingroom/windowseat.html

Plans are harder to find - but google should point you in the right
direction too. It would probably be easier to use something like the seat in
the link and adjust it to meet your needs and the woodworkers abaility.
Building in oak to this level needs a fair bit of skill and equipment, but
using MDF and paint would be a damn site easier.
