All homes require a space where we can locate
ourselves to study or work comfortably, quietly,
and without losing concentration. Therefore, the
idea is to turn one of the rooms into a cozy
study. Here we show you how to create the right
atmosphere with some ideas for decorating a
study room.
In a study room, you don't
need too much furniture, just basic furniture
such as a desk, a comfortable seat and some
shelves to place filing cabinets, books,
magazines, documents, etc. The ideal is to
choose a few pieces of furniture but that are
large and have spaces in which we can store our
different articles and objects for work or
study. In some cases, when your bedroom is your
study place, it is advisable to keep the bed
neat and tidy and what better than with
a
pleated comforter with a really modern look.
Good lighting is
essential in study rooms. You can place a large
central lamp in the room and another that
directly illuminates the work table. If you
prefer, you can also include small lamps in
other areas
Study rooms should be spaces
that help to maintain the concentration of their
occupants. Therefore, it is advisable to paint
the walls with light and neutral colors that do
not attract our attention and distract us. Tones
such as white, ivory, cream or pale yellow are
ideal for this type of room
Although the
study rooms fulfill a certain function, it does
not mean that we cannot give it a personal touch
and adapt it to our tastes. You can incorporate
some decorative elements such as plants,
paintings, photo frames, etc. and bring a little
color to the area with some textiles such as
curtains and rugs.
Let us bear in mind
that a study space or room is a place that will
have to have individualism and character. It
should always be organized, furnished, clean,
neat, and decorated in such a way that the
people who are going to use it feel comfortable
and can concentrate quickly.
This space
is designed so that people can become as
productive as possible. Each of the corners will
be able to fulfill a specific function, for
example, libraries or storage places can be
built on free walls.
The shelves for
creating a library can be placed along the wall,
in this structure, it would be appropriate to
place different cubicles for the storage of desk
accessories, sheets, notebooks, books. In the
spaces that become free, decorative objects can
be used.
Libraries should not be just a
place to store books, especially if the
furniture is large, thanks to its creation and
its style it can be given a personal touch. You
should only build a large one if you have a
sufficient amount of books and material that
justifies it, otherwise, there will be many gaps
and free spaces, which can be counterproductive.
If the number of books is small, you can
place them on a shelf with open shelves and
place a wall desk. This way they will get a
large free space.
When you sit down to
design the way in which you will furnish your
study room, you should focus on the use that you
will give to the place, on the lifestyle and on
the needs of each of the inhabitants of the
house, it is not the same to create a space that
will be used by professionals rather than by
school-age children, despite the notable
differences and needs of each case, if we put a
little imagination we can create a space that
can be shared by all.
To give it that
much-needed personal touch, you can use elements
such as a rug or other decorative details on the
wall, or simply change the way you store and
organize all objects and study materials.
If the available space is small or limited,
nothing better than choosing a minimalist
decoration, we should try to simplify everything
as much as possible. All the spaces that are not
visible can be used for storage and the walls
can be left free, painted in a white tone, thus
generating a greater sense of spaciousness.
Perhaps you can create a very personal
handmade poster on a wall, it will not need to
be large but rather reflect the personality.
In addition to the desk or work table, a
room should include, if possible, a corner to
read and relax. As much as possible, this site
should be close to a window in order to enjoy
natural light and fresh air.
Avoid that
the place where you go to work is messy, things
should always be neat and clean. If
the place of
study or work is visited by third parties and
the site is untidy, it could generate a bad
impression. That is why it is essential to
organize the papers and find containers for each
of the articles.
Boxes are an excellent
option for storing papers, especially if we are
talking about important documents. Having piles
of papers piled up in the office or workplace
will waste valuable time. In specialized stores,
you can find boxes of different sizes, colors,
and materials that will allow you to organize
yourself. You can use a label or box of each
color for a different purpose, which is easy to
remember and easy to use. This will make finding
things easier.
It is normal for
a place
dedicated to study or work to remain
disorganized if there is not a specific space
for storing small things, which are very
necessary, for example, the mobile phone
charger, pencils, scissors, small sheets,
markers, etc. For that, you can have several
small boxes ideal for storing this type of
thing. Remember to label the boxes with the name
of the items you will keep.
The different
tips that we have given you are easy to follow
and implement. We hope that many of them can
serve as a source of inspiration so that you can
get the most out of your place of study or work.
