Expert Answer

Turn the desk so it's against the wall, but facing the door, and avoid putting the back of your chair against a window. On top of the desk, place a pretty plant with soft leaves, as well as a lamp so you'll have plenty of light.

Question

I have four plants on my table. They don’t distract me. Is it OK if I leave them, or is it too much?

If it is disturbing your work, consider removing some of them, but if it relaxes you, you should leave them.

Use DIY things. Recycle and reuse items to make decor. For example, you could wash out a can and cover it with black or dark paper. Now it becomes a pencil holder or organizer.

Question

If I don't have plants for my desk, is it okay?

Community Answer

Of course! You should, however, provide plenty of light at your study space. That promotes well-being and productivity. Fill it with things that refresh or energize you. That's why they recommend plants.
