Any person needs a workspace where he can concentrate, escape from other worries and carry out current affairs. For a student, school is still a job, so he also needs to organize a separate area to complete his homework.
A sensitive parent will definitely take this fact into account and try to provide their child with everything necessary. The main attribute of this zone in a children's room is a desk. However, it cannot always be successfully integrated into the interior: it can be bulky and occupy a significant part of the room, which is not at all convenient. In this case, compact furniture - a student’s corner - will be an excellent solution. In addition to being ergonomic, it is also highly functional; with its help you can successfully organize the space.

Basic parameters of furniture
The arrangement of a room designed for a comfortable life, good rest and a functional learning process should be based on the following conditions:
- formation in children of independent responsibility for a personal place intended for their activities and learning;
- creating a suitable environment for preparing for lessons, studying additional material and pursuing hobbies;
- instilling discipline and self-organization associated with neatly storing things and maintaining order;
- ensuring comfortable rest and selection of comfortable furniture that will maintain posture during long sedentary activities.
Properly selected furniture for a children's room will last a long time and will meet the child's needs that change with age. It is important to think in advance so that in a couple of years you will not have to buy another table, cabinet or sofa that is no longer suitable due to changes in height, weight or aesthetic needs.
Determining a suitable location
Before you begin selecting appropriate furniture options, you need to evaluate the room: its size, layout, window location.
The first thing to consider is the natural light source.
Tip: it is advisable that the light falls on the work surface from the window on the left side if the child is right-handed, and vice versa.
The table can also be located opposite the window. This option is good for families where two children share a nursery. This way, the surface of the table can be combined with the window sill, using its usable area.
Corner without a bed
The second important point is correct zoning.
It is not recommended to place the school corner in a dark, poorly lit part of the room.
Its location should also not be closed: a good solution would be to place the furniture in such a way that from the table the child can see part of the room or a street panorama. You should not limit your child’s visibility in the hope of increasing his concentration, as you will achieve the exact opposite effect.
Furnishing the work area
The standard configuration of a schoolchild's corner without a bed is a work area consisting of a desk, a chair, a cabinet for storing various educational supplies and shelves for books.
A table and a chair are the main pieces of furniture with the help of which the direct process of studying takes place, using computer equipment and paper supplies.
The work corner set should be quite ergonomic, practical in materials and colors, and also take into account the orthopedic features of children.
General rules
Students are children aged 6-17 years. This is an impressive stage, during which children become adults, their interests, hobbies, and values change. In order not to constantly repair or remodel the room, experts recommend choosing a design that will “grow.”
Not so long ago, classic-style design options were used for this purpose, a calm design was made, and the atmosphere was created by using age-appropriate accents.
It’s easier to choose a design in a Khrushchev or other layout “according to age” if you take simple, strict lines of a sleeping bed, wardrobe, or desktop as furniture. Interior items must be of high quality and able to last for many years. Schoolchildren usually move a lot, play, drop something, spill something. Poor quality furniture will require quick replacement.
The same applies to decorative items, accessories, lighting items, and textile decoration. Here you can experiment, play with contrasts. The decor can be changed, objects corresponding to the age level of the student can be used.
On a note! When decorating a room, it is important to ask the child’s opinion.

What to consider when choosing
First you need to decide on the filling of the workspace.
If it includes the listed home furniture products, decide what design they should be. Choose a furniture set for a schoolchild in accordance with the decoration of the room and the style of the rest of the furniture. It is preferable to purchase all the furniture for the nursery together as a set. Listen to the following selection recommendations:
- The table and chair for writing must be selected based on the child’s height. Over time, the baby will grow, which means that the furniture will have to be changed. To avoid this, purchase an adjustable chair and table with legs that can change the length in height;
- Furniture for children should be made of safe materials. It is better to choose natural arrays, but they have an increased cost. The golden mean will be products made from chipboard - they are attractive and reliable;
- do not choose furniture of a provocative color; it is better to give preference to imitation wood structure or calm pastel shades. This way the child will get ready to do the work faster.
Provide comfort to your child according to his age and help put everything in its place. To prevent your child from getting bored, allow him to occasionally use stickers with his favorite characters on the furniture.
Dimensions

The most important criterion when choosing is overall dimensions. The overall dimensions of all items should be selected based on two parameters: the area of the room, the age of the son (daughter). For example, if the room is very small and there are two children, a compact bunk bed would be the best choice.
Today, manufacturers are ready to offer parents children's furniture in a variety of sizes. Typically, the overall dimensions of the bed are selected according to age. A 700x1500 mattress is suitable for a baby, and 800x2000 for a schoolchild. There are also other size charts. As a rule, such parameters are indicated directly on the website of the online store, or on the price tag. The price will also depend on the size of the structure (from 15,000 to 150,000 rubles)
The size of the children's corner itself depends on the complete set. The standard size of the kit for a schoolchild is 2424x1850x840. For a smaller baby – 2130x1080x770. For a small room it is better to choose compact models.

Another important selection criterion is the design of the structure. In addition to safety and high functionality, parents should pay special attention to the aesthetic side of the issue. Good taste needs to be developed from a young age. All products in the kit must match the decoration of the room. Also, the design should be appropriate for the baby’s age. For a schoolchild, you should not buy furniture with children's drawings of cars and bunnies. If you are choosing a sleeping place for a long period, it is better to give preference to a discreet, universal design.
For girls, a design in the Provence style is often chosen. Delicate French style develops excellent taste in a child. This style uses natural materials, light, pleasant colors. Also for girls they choose classics. The classic style provides for a discreet interior design. Particular attention is paid to accessories - bed linen, bedspreads, stationery. They must be flawless.

School room: maintaining order or good organization
Creative and active children often have problems with order in their room. Therefore, the space should be organized in such a way that all objects have their place.

Chests of drawers with pull-out containers are ideal for everyday storage of small items. Such furniture will certainly appeal to those schoolchildren who have the biggest problem with maintaining order.
