Six super tricks for lighting in student accommodation
Dandelion lamp with pen holder, Philoshape/Etsy, €63.
1. You might not be allowed to drill into the wall, but with the latest no-drill blinds, you don’t have to. Look into models that sit on tension springs or twist and turn supports to finesse the light in your study/bedroom.
2. One good desk lamp can make all the difference. You might think that a backlit screen is all you need, but to balance the light and remove the danger of eye-strain, train a lamp down onto the surface of the desk to bounce and diffuse, reducing contrast.
