Staying home?

Working and studying from home has its perks: low travel expenses, readymade accommodation and of course, the comfort (in fact, luxury!) of your own parents’ home. One downside may be the distractions of home when there’s a deadline to be met, but restructuring your childhood bedroom to turn it into an efficient study area is easier than you think. These tips from Harvey Norman will make your home study a breeze.

This Porter bookcase has a painted hardwood frame, also available in white, complemented by oak shelving which gives it a Scandi appeal. The four shelves offer ample storage for books, binders and office utensils.

Like the matching bookcase, the Porter desk is a minimal design that maximises space. Its painted hardwood frame, in either grey or white, perfectly contrasts the oak top, a great size for a home study, with plenty of space for a computer and your work materials.

There’s yet more Scandi-style with the Stockholm Office Chair. With oil-treated imitation leather upholstery and sumptuous padding, the chair also has 360° rotation and a gas lever that allows you to adjust the seat to the optimum height. Lastly, leather padded slimline arms add a touch of style and comfort.

The Nest office chair has steel legs with five wheels which allow you to easily navigate your workspace. The winged arms are set at an optimal 90 degrees, while the foam seating and curved back allow you to work in comfort. The height of the seat can also be easily adjusted.
