A partitioned or set back space
To be quiet, it is advisable to create your library in a space set back from the living rooms, the best being to have a room dedicated to the reading corner. If this is not possible, you can always install it in an alcove, under the stairs, in front of a window… In short, where you can enjoy a bit of serenity, far from the incessant noises of the house!

Choose your seat
This is the most important! To immerse yourself in your bubble, it is essential that you are comfortable while reading. From the traditional armchair to the bench, via the meridian, you are spoiled for choice. For children, it is even trendy to install a tepee-style reading corner, thanks to a veil and a pile of cushions. Do not skimp on the plaids, which will be of great use to you in winter, when the temperatures will make you shiver.

Install your library
Make way for the centerpiece of your book space: the library! Finally, you will be able to display your most beautiful volumes in broad daylight, those that make you proud. For this, you can opt for several options: designer bookcase, colorful bookcase, low bookcase placed under a window… Our favourite: the custom-made bookcase, which you can create by assembling your solid wood panels. Give it the size and shape you want depending on the number of books you are going to put in it.

Take care of the lighting
If you are more of an evening person, you know how essential good lighting is to avoid hurting your eyes! In addition to natural light, consider decorating the space with several lights: ceiling light, bedside lamp, light garland, or floor lamp.

Put some greenery
Who says reading corner says space where you feel good! What could be better than a little greenery to highlight your library and allow you to recharge your batteries? From the little cacti placed on your shelves and wedged between a few books to the large plant nestled next to the armchair, go green!

Create an atmosphere
Do you like fantasy? Create a magical space that resembles your readings! Are you more into psychological testing? Recreate the interior of a psychiatrist’s office. As you will have understood, you have carte blanche to make this reading corner a place that reflects you. Our advice: install a carpet, which will bring an aesthetic touch to the space, while reducing noise. All you have to do is devour your books for hours!
