Are the stack of files, papers and a never ending stream of stationery making your desk look more like a train wreck than a well-oiled engine that keeps your work going on full steam? Fret not, here’s a list of our top tips to help you put things in order.
- Let’s start with the geek stuff. Get your gadgets and the peripherals together to enhance your study room design. Use a movable trolley to place your printer, copier, scanner – the works. This will help you clear up desk space. Opt for slimmer screens for your desktop; it will help de-clutter visually. A sleeve is great way of bunching together all your wires and cables.
- Now the study table itself. If your space allows it, then opt for a larger one, which will give you more desk space. Alternately, choose one with drawers that can hold basic stationery including pens, pencils, rulers, papers, etc.
- Independent shelves will help you move the larger, bulkier files away from sight. Put them away in neatly labelled boxes for ease of usage.
- You can refashion slotted angle shelves into a chic storage cabinet. Paint them in colours to match your study, and you have a study unit ready.
- Throw in a couch, an armchair or a beanbag if your space allows it. This will create a nice breakaway space, where you can read a book, or have a coffee break.
