Everything you need to start uni

The complex life of a dorm room desk

Your study desk is suddenly a dining table. Or a dressing station. Perhaps a workbench for your passion project? You get the picture. TRAVSPORT sit/stand desk lets you change positions with the push of a button. And it’s easy to keep the desk tidy with a SKÅDIS pegboard, combined with all the containers, shelves, and holders you need.

Don’t underestimate the power of boxes, big and small. SKUBB boxes fit perfectly in STORKLINTA chest of drawers, keeping garments and accessories neatly in place. With SAMLA boxes and lids, you can keep larger items separate, protected, and easy to stow away. A humble PÄRKLA laundry bag is lightweight and easy to carry, making laundry days a little less of a chore.

Get ready to mingle

You know how people always say, “We met at uni”? Try leaving your door open and see what happens! But first: turn your bed into a welcoming seating area. SANELA cushion covers are velvety, durable, and easy to clean. With its clever fold-up design, an IKEA PS side table is ready whenever you need it.

KULGLASS Bluetooth speaker lets you set the mood, with soft lighting and mingle-friendly tunes. And with an extra SPJUTLILJA serving set at hand, you’re always ready for tea and snacks with whoever drops by.
