How to Recognize A Reading Corner

A reading corner can look different for each of us. However there are some key aspects that characterize a reading corner! Usually there’s one or two comfortable accent chairs with a side table, and some books close by. For those short on space, it could be a simple armchair with wall mounted shelves above. Or for something more elaborate, chaise armchairs with large bookcases can be used to create a reading corner or library-esque space.

Reading Corner Fun Facts:

The term “reading corner” comes from classrooms! A huge part of early learning is reading in group settings which is usually done in the reading corner of a classroom. For these environments it usually includes children’s bookcases and floor cushions for kids to sit on.

Today, this term has evolved into the home! With many of us now enjoying hobbies that takes us away from digital screens, creating a reading corner at home can help promote this in a cozy and comfortable way.
