Back to college with a fresh start!

Start your college 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 college!  

A dorm room includes a dark beige KRYLBO swivel chair made from Tonerud, in front of a height-adjustable desk.

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.

Dorm room organisation 101

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.
