Bedroom study area: how to furnish it and make it truly functional
The children’s room is intended for a wide range of activities. This is why theorganisation of the room must be studied with some care and taking into account the needs of those who will live there on a daily basis. As the little ones at home grow up, in fact, it may be necessary to adapt the furnishings and the environment more generally according to the different stages of life, for example by designing an ad hoc space to be used for study.
Creating a study area in the children’s room can in fact help youngsters to concentrate better and develop good habits in this regard. Let us therefore see how to design and furnish a study corner for children with desks, bookcases and other elements that are as beautiful as they are practical.
Study room: how to choose the position of individual elements
The first phase of the project concerns the choice of location for the study area within the bedroom. On this, in fact, the effectiveness of the entire space may depend.
Ideally, thechildren’s study corner should be located in an area with good natural light. It is best, therefore, to opt for a space close to a window (with light coming in from the side), but without external distractions. Once the right place has been identified, this area can then be clearly delineated, perhaps with the use of furniture or furnishings that best define it and make it almost a ‘room within a room’.
Room with study area: desks that encourage productivity
The heart of any study area is the desk. Choosing this element carefully means giving a truly personal touch to the space, without sacrificing refined aesthetics and practicality. In this sense, Nidi offers several options that combine design with the functionality of the desk, which must adapt not only to the available space, but also to the tastes and needs of those who will use it for reading, writing and learning. Which options to consider?
A shaped desk provides ample space for books, laptops and school materials, but at the same time its curved lines make it a visually appealing central element, ideal for any kind of bedroom. As one side is shallower than the other, it can be positioned to give the room more breathing space, for example without weighing down the area closest to the entrance door. Completely customisable in terms of dimensions and finishes, the Nidi shaped desk allows any furnishing requirement to be met to perfection!
There is no shortage of other solutions designed for those seeking a minimalist design with a touch of originality. Let’s think, for example, of the Secret desk, which in addition to having lines as simple as they are elegant, has a practical secret compartment under the worktop, ideal for hiding small treasures or study materials. A desk of this type will keep the study area of the bedroom light, but also tailored to the needs of guests.
Another interesting option is the use of desks that adapt as children grow. A model such as the William desk, for example, allows a choice of three different heights to better meet the needs of the user. This, of course, does not penalise aesthetics, which can be customised with the use of different colours and accessories.
On a functional level, the solutions for the children’s study corner are numerous. It is clear, however, that the eye also wants its part. Here much depends on subjective choices, for example in terms of the materials used. Wood, used for the work surface and for the sides or feet of the desk, provides warmth to the room. Metal, on the other hand, offers great practicality and lightness, with options to suit different needs. The final choice? It will depend solely on your creativity.
Creative storage solutions for keeping order with originality
Keeping the study area organised is essential to ensure concentration and productivity, but this does not necessarily mean renouncing a more creative and original style. With the storage solutions designed by Nidi, the study area becomes the right place to store books and personal items while defining the personality of those who spend several hours a day here.
Everything in the right place with modular bookcases
Increasingly in vogue are modular bookcases. The Holly model, for example, offers all the flexibility needed to organise books, toys and school materials in an orderly and accessible way, thanks to an open structure that facilitates easy access. This can also be customised with boxes and drawers for an even more effective result.
More fantasy with organised woodwork
To give an even more imaginative touch to the entire room, however, we cannot overlook the Dots boiserie. A versatile and colourful element that allows you to hang various accessories, creating a customised work space in which to keep pens, papers and small objects in order, keeping everything within easy reach. A boiserie of this type allows you to make the space more original, without giving up the advantages of a useful element for storing objects.
The importance of ergonomic and comfortable chairs
Obviously, furnishing the study area of a nursery cannot be separated from the careful choice of the chair to go with the desk, which must first and foremost be comfortable, support the back correctly and, if possible, be sufficiently stylish.
Which Nidi product best combines all these elements? Undoubtedly the Ava chair, which with its ergonomic design and the possibility to adjust the height, is best suited to the different needs of the study , mixing comfort and elegance.
For those looking for extra comfort, on the other hand, the upholstered Pod chair offers even softer and cosier support, proving ideal for long periods of study and adding a modern touch to the study area. The Pod chair, moreover, can be customised with wooden legs, a metal trellis base or with castors, as well as an infinite number of fabrics and colours to match the rest of the room.
Children's study corner: a look at accessories and decorations
In addition to the main furniture, we cannot forget the accessories, which can play an essential role in customising the study area and making it inviting. Desk lamps and LED strips are two possible options for bringing the right light into the study corner and not straining the eyes, while colourful notice boards and cushions can add a touch of personality and make the space more welcoming. Decorations based on bright colours or motifs that children and young people like can, finally, make the space more cheerful and stimulating.
And what about colours? Certainly, softer hues and pastel colours encourage greater concentration, making the environment also more relaxing.
Creating a study area in the nursery that is functional, comfortable and beautiful is, in short, essential to encourage good study habits and promote creativity. In order to realise this at its best, however, it is essential to design it carefully and complete it with the right furniture and accessories, elements that can transform any space into a work area that the youngest will love and feel as their own.
