Interior design
The design of your student accommodation is not something we leave to chance. We know that your accommodation isn’t just a place for you to live and unwind, its also a place where you will need to study. As a result, all aspects of our interior design are focused on creating a productive environment.
Colour
Colour is important in student accommodation as it can have an influence on mood. While red is the colour of energy and passion, it can be distracting in rooms where you should be studying. On the other hand, blue has a remarkably positive influence on the mind, and this makes blue the perfect colour for coursework and revision.
Lighting
Lighting has a definitive impact on productivity levels. That’s why we make sure all of our rooms are well lit. In fact, any working environment should be lit by 300-500 lux. A room that is dimmer than this will lead to eye strain, headaches and lack of productivity. On the other hand, lighting that is too bright can also cause eye strain, migraines and poor sleep. As a result, all of our rooms have lighting options, from wall lights, to bright ceiling lights. This way you can find the perfect balance for study.
