The time has come to create your reading corner! To read or simply stay calm at home, the reading corner will be your oasis of peace in your home. It is not necessary to have a lot of space, your reading corner can be installed in a simple corner. Here we give you the 3 important steps to follow to create a reading corner that is both practical and aesthetic in your home.

Choose the library that best suits your needs

It all starts with choosing the bookcase or shelf to keep your precious books within reach, but not only that. Installing a bookcase in your home has many other benefits: it offers you a zen space for rest and relaxation, it encourages reading and it can be a wonderful decorative element that adds a real plus to your room. Rectangular or ladder-shaped, your reading corner will also serve to delimit the spaces of the room in which you choose to install it.

Here is an example of the different shelf shapes:

Opt for comfortable seats

It is also important to feel good in your own little oasis of peace, which is why the choice of your armchair is fundamental. You need to choose the chair in which you will feel most comfortable to relax as much as possible and provide you with immediate comfort. To do this, take into account its material, its covering and its padding. In fabric or leather, colored or discreet, with or without footrest, it is your ideal ally for a well-deserved relaxing break. Also think about its appearance, which should not be overlooked: its color and decorative style will allow you to combine your comfort with the aesthetics of your reading corner.

Don’t forget your decoration!

A reading corner not only has a practical purpose: it also adds the finishing touch to the decoration of your room. In fact, once your comfort is ensured, you can add other essential decorative elements to your reading corner. Let’s think first of all about the welcoming touch by adding cushions and large soft throws, in natural materials such as wool or linen, for a guaranteed warm atmosphere. But also lighting, essential in this space. By positioning your reading corner near a window you will be able to benefit from natural light and if this position is not possible you can opt for a beautiful lamp or small luminous garlands to illuminate your pages.

That’s all, all you have to do is relax and enjoy pleasant moments in your new reading corner. And if you are looking for a new bookcase or a new armchair for this new layout, do not hesitate to take a look at our site Usinestreet.fr!
