How is the study or bedroom of an old intellectual or scholar generally arranged?

Paper, ink, pen and inkstone are indispensable things in ancient learning. With the development of modern life, computers and keyboards have already replaced these traditional objects, and the furnishings of the study are simple and clear. Needless to say, the study is a place for reading, writing or working, which needs a quiet and peaceful feeling, so that people will not be impetuous inside. The traditional Chinese study, from furnishings to planning, from colors to materials, shows the characteristics of classical quietness, so it has won the favor of many modern people. Therefore, in modern home, having a study full of "ancient taste" and a space where you can meditate and dive is naturally a higher level of enjoyment.

Urban people increasingly hope that their fashionable and simple homes can also have antique study rooms, and the classical study furniture in China generally includes: desk, bookcase, chair, pencil case, couch, desk, Bo Gu cabinet, flowers, calligraphy and painting, pen container and Four Treasures of the Study, some of which are essential elements of study rooms.

Chinese furniture is heavy in color, which can create a stable effect, but it is also easy to appear dull and dark. Therefore, it is best for a Chinese study to have large windows to allow air circulation and introduce natural light and outdoor scenery. In the past, people would create some small landscapes inside and outside the study to set off the tranquility of the study.

If the modern home is limited by space conditions and can't open enough windows, then lighting should be carefully considered, and sufficient and comfortable light sources must be ensured. In addition, exquisite potted plants are also decorative details that cannot be ignored in the study. Green plants not only make the space full of vitality, but also help to relieve the spirit for people who think for a long time.

Learning furniture series:

Desk and drawing case: A typical traditional desk has a drawer, while a drawing case has no drawer, which was used by the ancients when they stood and painted. If the space at home is not big enough, some people directly use the drawing case as a desk, and they all use the same desk for drawing, writing and reading. Today, paintings are often used as dining tables because they have no drawers and simple lines. In the past, furniture was made by carpenters at home, and the height would be specially designed for users. Now we choose Chinese furniture. In addition to considering external lines and wooden materials, you should also choose a table that suits your height, so that it will be comfortable to use.

Chair: There were no chairs specially designed for study in past dynasties. Generally speaking, plush chairs and official hat chairs in their early forties are the most common, so it will be more comfortable to choose chairs with armrests as far as possible.

Couch: In the past, in addition to the desk and drawing board, there was always a couch in the study for taking a nap at noon. Now, you can put a mobile low table on the sofa, where you can read some relaxing books and entertain friends for tea and chat.

Bookshelves and book boxes: Antique bookshelves are not only suitable for storing books, but also suitable for placing their favorite ornaments. As for the small bookcase, it is the cabinet for ancient people to go out with fashionable books. Now it is not only used as a shoe cabinet or locker, but also a good place to place and collect tea sets in the study.

People who like painting and calligraphy often see pictures at home without drawers. When drawing, it is used standing, and because the drawing case is relatively large, it is often used as a desk at the same time. Those who like classicism can put a plush chair or other common four-year-old official hat chairs at their desks, preferably with armrests, so that they will be more comfortable to sit. When purchasing furniture, we should not only pay attention to the shape, quality and color of the study furniture, but also consider that the furniture should adapt to people's activities and meet the basic requirements of human health aesthetics. For example, when resting and reading, the sofa should be soft and straight, so that the legs can stretch freely to achieve high comfort, so as to eliminate fatigue after sedentary. Therefore, if the space is large enough, you can consider placing a couch in the study, lying leisurely reading and relaxing.
