Check out this handy guide on how to create a reading nook.
Find a space to start with. If you are a lucky owner of a property with a bay window with a pleasant view, you are already halfway through creating your perfect reading nook. If your house is not big enough, dedicate a well-lit corner. If there isn’t such a place in your home, do not worry. Think how to rearrange some of the furniture to open up space, perfect to create a perfect reading nook. It needs to be free from distracting noises such as TV or radio. Do not forget about space for a stand-up lamp useful in the autumn and winter, when it gets earlier dark outside.
Get the right chair. Now is the time to choose something to sit on. There are plenty of options. From squishy chairs through sofas, benches to windowsills converted into seatings. The last option creates a great base for soft cushions or as a back for a lower bench-style seat.
Optimise for light to read in comfort. There’s nothing worse than trying to read in poor lighting. In general, most of us prefer to read in natural light rather than under the buzz and glare of fluorescent bulbs. Although natural light is ideal for reading, it can also cause problems as it is not consistent throughout the day. It can create glare spots and potentially dangerous shadowy areas. In order to make the most of the natural light in your private library corner, plantation shutters come with a helping hand, by offering the best control of lighting conditions possible. With Plantation Shutters, simply by adjusting the louvres, you can let light in just the right amount of sunlight. Plantation shutters come in different colours to impact the atmosphere of your reading nook. They allow you to keep your special space light and bright enough for your eyes to read in comfort.
