Use curtains or partitions to separate a study space from the rest of a larger room.
A chaise lounge piled with pillows and blankets makes a great reading spot or resting space.
The chair must be the right height as well as comfortable to sit in for long periods, so take your time when picking it out. If you don’t like working at a desk or table, you could choose a comfy couch or chair instead. You may want a lap desk to write on as well.
A light or lamp that mimics natural sunlight is best, so use a cool white light bulb, rather than a warm yellow bulb. Avoid using colored light bulbs.
Alternatively, you could make your own storage space out of crates. Plan out your shelf design, then screw the shelves together and use an L-bracket to attach them to a wall in your study room.
If you don’t have desk drawers, use supply organizers. You can find many varieties at office supply stores as well as online.
For instance, you could choose to paint the walls ice blue, cream, light green, or pastel yellow.
For instance, if your walls are white and your furniture is black, hang up printed curtains to give the space some personality. You could also add a lampshade or area rug in a complementary color.
Another idea is to buy a unique wall clock and make it the focal piece of your room.
For instance, you might want to keep a little treasure box full of mementos on your bookshelf. Or, you could put special items in shadow boxes and hang them on the wall.
Color-code your calendar by class so it’s easy to read at a glance.
