With school back in session, we give these desks, nooks, and offices an A+. Parents, take note of these functional spaces that will have your students excited to complete their after-school assignments.
The homework room in this Greenwich home is custom made for studying. Suspended float plane is through the Aviation Megastore.
Kid’s Club! In the kids’ hallway of this Connecticut home, orange Kartell chairs and a window seat in a Pollack faux leather provide seating at a pine trestle table through Noir Furniture. The pendant lights are through Shades of Light; the iron cage lights are from Circa Lighting.
A Westport home’s office is furnished with Bertoia chairs from 2Modern at a pair of built-in desks. Ceiling wallpaper by South African designer Sarah Ord is through Sarza. This playful space is the perfect place for two students to get their work done.
In a Rye home, an-all white office offers an airy space, free of distractions. The office features a custom built-in desk and filing cabinet; the Serge Mouille light fixture and Saarinen Tulip chair are from Design Within Reach.
A pop of color makes homework time that much better. Bringing some greenery into a New York City apartment, decorator Elizabeth Pash’s work area is fresh and inviting. The white cabinetry in this compact space contrasts with the green walls and ceiling, covered in Thibaut’s Shang grass cloth. This Upper East Side office is now a distraction-free city oasis.
In the 2022 Hartford Designer Showhouse, the area at the end of the kitchen has an antique desk under the bay window, perfect for homework or puzzles. Under the other window, an antique bench has storage under the seat for books and toys. The kitchen is designed by Edith Whitman Interiors.
