Wondering how to create a study space at home? With the right furniture and accessories, even a hallway or a nook underneath the stairs can double as your study zone. When you can’t close the door on your home office or study nook, keeping it free of clutter and mess is even more important. A locker like The Lowdown or The Midi is a great addition to your space because it works as decor, too – choose a colour that fits your colour scheme and no one would ever guess you’re using it as office furniture. Mustard’s original lockers have handy cable holes inside which means you can hide away your modem, printer or chargers, and lockable doors keep your electronics safe and sound when it’s time to clock off. No desk? No dramas. Mustard lockers make it easy to create a DIY desk setup that’s the perfect fit for the space you’re working with. All you need is a flat surface for your desktop (a piece of timber cut to size works) and a Shorty to pop underneath. Grab a set of adjustable legs for the other side, and you’ve got yourself a bespoke desk.
Trying to create a study nook in your bedroom? If your bedroom is moonlighting as your study space, it’s all about balance. It’s important to be able to switch off when it’s time to relax or sleep, so keep surfaces free of clutter and make your study zone somewhere that sparks inspiration, not dread. Under-desk storage like The Shorty makes it easy to keep your desktop free of mess. And don’t forget about your wallspace – The Storyboard puts your study inspiration right where you can see it, so use it as decor that helps remind you of what you’re working towards.
The smallest spaces can still work as a study zone with a few simple tricks. When you’re short on floor space, go up. Floating shelves like The Ledge make smart use of wallspace to create extra storage without compromising your layout. Lastly, opt for furniture that creates the illusion of space. Pieces with slim legs (hello, Mustard Made lockers) give a sense of lightness and space, lowering their ‘visual weight’ and making them appear less bulky.
