Back to uni with a fresh start!

Start your uni journey off right, whether you’re moving into a dorm or your first apartment. Some needs remain the same: a comfortable study space, a cosy bed, smart storage solutions and ways to stay energised when the studying gets tough. Check out some essentials and get inspired with how to pack for uni!

Rise to the occasion

Decide how you want to study. Use LOBERGET swivel chair for marathon study sessions, or start the day by standing tall at a DUBBLA laptop stand on your desk. It makes studying a little bit more exciting when you can switch from sitting to standing in seconds, maybe even dance a little while writing that essay.
