IKEA - 5 study space ideas for any space at home

SVALNÄS wall-mounted workspace combination

1. Camouflage your office area in a living room with a wall unit that includes a desk and lots of display shelves. A cable management box covers up untidy chargers, and a clamp spotlight provides necessary light without stealing desk space. For more unity, match desk accessories to wall colour.

2. Grow with your study buddy thanks to a child’s desk that adjusts to different heights. The tallest setting even works for adults! Storage like pegboards and picture ledges keep the area clean and clear. Work lamps keep eyes from straining. Just swap your kid-friendly seating when it’s time.



3. Roll to any table (especially the dining table that’s so great for spreading out) and turn it into an office with a smart storage bench on wheels. You can organise the removable drawers even more with a few baskets or boxes and add to your overhead lighting with a convenient USB lamp, too.

4. Combine a bedroom and study room with a slim, movable table. Choose one that’s deep enough for your laptop or books. (This one’s 36 cm and has a spot for your computer so you can really unplug.) Don’t forget a lamp, and don’t skip on a desk chair—even if your bed is a tempting seat!

5. Outfit your couch desk so you can work where you lounge—with more efficiency. A laptop stand adjusts for a right-height desk and doubles as a side table. You can direct the floor lamp where you need to read. And a portable, pocket-y organiser contains your papers and practical stuff.
