HOW TO CREATE A PERFECT READING NOOK?

Learn how to easily decorate your relaxation corner

WHAT IS A READING NOOK?

It is a small and cosy space designed for reading and relaxation. A corner of your home where you can escape with a good book or favourite magazine. A great spot to enjoy your cup of coffee in the mornings and wind down after work with a glass of wine. 

THE PURPOSE 

The goal is to design a quiet, comfortable and inviting atmosphere that provides you with a sense of peace and solitude. It is also a clever solution for unused corners of your home to become functional. A great option for areas that lack interest to receive purpose and charm.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT SPOT 

A great option is near a  window, as natural light plays a huge role in creating the ideal reading space. Next to a fireplace that provides constant warmth  would be another good choice. In a secluded area of your home or an unused corner of your bedroom.

EASY GUIDE TO DESIGN YOUR OWN 

Choose the most comfortable loveseat, armchair or chaise lounge. Use a knit or faux-fur throw for extra warmth and comfort.  Scatter pillows with varying patterns and materials to enhance the tactile experience. For a relaxing ambiance choose either a floor lamp, a reading lamp or a string of lights. Personalise it with an accent table and adorn it with books, candles or flowers to help you unwind. Consider a piece of calming artwork or a potted green plant for a soothing effect.
