Nordic・Work Nook: Desk by the Window

A work corner set up in a home. The desk is placed directly in front of the window, facing or sideways to the window, because precious northern daylight means the workspace must be in the best light. The desktop is a light-colored birch plywood slab, with thin black steel tube legs, extremely minimalist in line. On the desk are a laptop, an open notebook, a ceramic cup, and an adjustable-arm desk lamp. On the wall is a shelf system holding books and stationery. The chair is a classic molded shell chair. On the windowsill are two small plants and a low lamp. The floor is whitewashed wood. There are no partitions around, this corner directly belongs to the living space. Avoid: placing the desk facing the wall with its back to the window, using heavy office furniture, adding a separate enclosed study partition, using cool white lighting.

一個設在住家中的工作角落。桌子直接放在窗前,面對或側對窗戶,因為北方的日光珍貴,工作位置必須在光最好的地方。桌面是一片淺色的樺木層積板,配細的黑色鋼管腳,線條極簡。桌上有一台筆電、一本攤開的筆記、一個陶杯與一盞可調臂的桌燈。牆上是一組層板系統放著書與文具。椅子是一張經典的模壓殼體椅。窗台上有兩株小植物與一盞矮燈。地板是刷白的木。周圍沒有隔間,這個角落直接屬於起居空間。避免:把桌子面對牆背對窗、使用厚重的辦公家具、加入獨立的封閉書房隔間、使用冷白的照明。
