Tables with shelves in the interior

A table with a shelving unit was invented not so long ago. It was originally intended for offices. Now many people work at home, and this design has become firmly established in the home interior as a convenient option for writing, computer desks. Being at the computer for a long time, people want to spend it with comfort, which implies not only a comfortable chair, but also the ability to have everything they need close at hand.

With the development of new technologies, the necessary becomes more and more: a mobile phone, flash drives, disks, adapters, all kinds of gadgets (it's good when everything is in one place). Copying equipment, paper for it also needs to be attached somewhere. It is important to find a place for documents, records and books. If there is a pupil or student in the house, you can move your laptop aside and study at the table. Textbooks, notebooks should be nearby. In such a situation, it is difficult to do without a rack.

How to choose?

The shelving itself, open or closed, is very convenient. Unlike a wardrobe, it is light, airy, and with a table integrated into it, it will take up less space, which is important in a small apartment. The table and rack, made in the same color scheme, from the same material, look great at arm's length).

Shelving owners know how convenient and practical they are, how varied and how many things can be placed in them. Modern racks are not just walls with shelves, they consist of many sections, drawers. The shelves themselves can be of different lengths, located in several tiers, even on different walls (in the corner model). Combining the rack with the table, you get a cozy mini-cabinet.

Even before acquiring this miracle design, you should decide where it will stand and for what purposes it will serve. Not everyone has their own office in the house, but the abundance of furniture on the market allows you to choose a design for different tastes and for any interior. You can place it in the living room, nursery, even in the bedroom.

Pay attention to the design of the furniture already in the room. Your new desk should blend in harmoniously with her surroundings. It is desirable to match the color palette and the material from which the model is made.

Consider the size of the room. For example, in a small bedroom, a large work desk will look depressing. But if everything is in order with the footage, then it is better to choose a spacious table for work, equipped with a rack in order to organize a comfortable ergonomic space with free access to any technical devices.

When choosing a place for furniture, you need to take into account the number of outlets and the load that they can carry without harm to the safety of households. To avoid overheating of equipment, do not place it near radiators. It is better to position the table in relation to the windows so that the light does not dazzle or glare off the monitor. The best option if the window is on the side.

It is recommended to leave the distance from the eyes to the monitor at least one meter, this should be taken into account when choosing a tabletop. But at the same time, its size should allow you to reach any object without effort.

If furniture is purchased by a student, it is better to have a foot bar.

As for the shelving unit, it is good if it does not have the same shelves and compartments for different functions. For example, in large sections you can put a printer, and small ones can be filled with books, disks, flash drives and other trifles. Not bad if there is space for the system unit and speakers.

You should also pay attention to the height of the rack. Usually they are designed for a person of average height.For those who like to store a lot of things, you can buy a high rack, but it is better to store items of frequent use on the lower shelves.

How to arrange the workplace correctly?

When choosing a table, especially for a student, one should take into account not only its versatility and integration into the design of the house, but also the appropriateness from the point of view of health.

The following requirements will help you organize your workplace correctly:

  • the length of the table should be at least 80 cm, this space is enough so that the elbows do not hang down, otherwise the child will have a change in posture;
  • it is necessary that the edge of the table (in a sitting position) falls on the area between the abdomen and chest, this height is considered ideal. If height adjustment is not provided, a screw chair should be selected;
  • the rack should not block natural light and be guessed by peripheral vision. It's a good idea to place the table against the wall by the window. There should be enough space on the countertop or rack for lighting fixtures during the dark.

Correctly chosen table - healthy back and saved vision.

Views

There are three main types of such furniture:

  • Corner table most popular. It fits well in a small space. It has many advantages. The table is compact and has a wide table top. It is completed with a large number of drawers, sometimes with a pull-out cabinet. The rack can be oriented towards one or both walls. Most often, the racks are one-sided, therefore, when buying a corner table, you should take into account the direction of its rack (left-side or right-side). The purchase is carried out based on the selected location in the premises.
  • Linear table assumes a shelving on one wall, but there may be shelves under the countertop. Such a model has no restrictions on the length and width of the table top, it is selected with the orientation of the room space. It has a drawer or even several, a built-in bottom shelf for a computer and a pull-out shelf for a keyboard. If you need classic furniture, this option is the most optimal. A linear table can be either a writing or a computer one. The latter differs from writing only in devices for a computer and its components.
  • Small desk-desk with a convertible top and a light shelf superstructure is good for a child of preschool or primary school age.

Materials (edit)

Most tables with shelving are made of chipboard and fiberboard materials. Sometimes the coverings are laminated to make the furniture more attractive. A table made of this material is strong and stable, it is moisture tolerant and relatively inexpensive.

But this is a rather thick material compared to the airy glass and metal structures. In an interior with a Gothic style, for example, an elegant metal table with a lightweight superstructure in the form of a rack of several shelves looks good.

Tables made of expensive wood, decorated with mosaics and inlays look rich. Glass, natural stone, and bone are used to decorate the countertop.

If a table made of the material of interest is not in stores, it can be ordered at furniture factories according to an individual project.

Interior use

Furniture, consisting of a table and a rack, is appropriate in different premises.

Hall

In conditions of a lack of space, a computer desk is often placed in the living room. In a modern design, a table with a shelf is a light, unobtrusive structure, it does not burden the space at all. But buying the first table you like for the hall is not right.

Attention should be paid to the renovation and standing furniture. The table must match the design solution of the entire interior. The color, texture of the table, its dimensions are important. It is also worth considering the convenience and work component.

As an option for the living room - a classic table, straightforward, with a small rack, although it looks boring, it will suit any interior.

An empty corner fills well with a corner table with graceful shelves extending to the wall.

If you want to retire for work, you should allocate the work area with a podium or fenced off from the common room with a table with a dividing rack. In the latter case, the rack should be double-sided, that is, it should look equally good from either side.

Children

When a place for games and sleep is organized in the nursery, the next step is to equip the exercise area.

The choice of a table in a children's room should be approached especially carefully. The main focus is on maintaining the health of the child. The material from which the study furniture is made must be environmentally friendly. Lighting, table height - in accordance with medical standards.

Done correctly, your child will not get tired, fall asleep during lessons, or behave anxiously. At the same table, he will be able to play board games and be creative. Such a table will become a favorite pastime.

Convenience should not be forgotten either. A table with a rack can accommodate all books, notebooks, toys, computer accessories and thousands of different little things that a child can reach simply by stretching out his hand.

It is worth paying attention to the table top, it must be large enough to place the monitor at a standard distance, speakers, a table lamp. During classes, textbooks and notebooks should be placed, and during games - constructors and toys.

In most cases, manufacturers today offer chipboard tables (wood products are expensive). This material has become commonplace in home interiors. Furniture for a children's room is no exception. Of course, you cannot call it ecological, but when buying a table for a child, check at least a certificate from the seller confirming the safety of the product.

And if your budget allows you to purchase a wooden table, it will also serve your grandchildren.

Bedroom

Due to the lack of space, the work area is organized in any possible place of the house: in the hall, nursery, kitchen, corridor. There is no exception for the bedroom.

It is generally accepted that the bedroom is not the best place to work. During the day, the bed distracts and disposes to rest, and during sleep, the table does not allow you to fall asleep, reminds you of work. But if you look from the other side, then in the house where the family lives, the quietest place is the bedroom.

If the choice fell on this room, you should try to create a work area by fencing it off from the bed with a light partition or table rack. It is a rack, and not a blank cabinet, otherwise the room will be dark. But, if the room is too small, you can leave it as it is.

A table oversaturated with drawers, sections and a large number of shelves will "kill" the interior of a small bedroom. A lightweight shelving unit over a compact table will not hurt. He will help to arrange all things on the shelves and the workplace will not look like a cluttered spot against the background of peaceful rooms.

It is not necessary to place the table in the far corner: having found a place for it by the bed, you can save on the bedside table, and put the remote control, glasses or a book directly on the tabletop.

If a table with a rack is chosen correctly, it becomes a convenient workplace, a container of many things and a guarantor of order in the house.
