Chic Textures

Between the oh-so-soft knit blanket, fringed throw pillow, woven basket, sheepskin rug, and marble-top side table, this reading corner from M Loves M uses stylish textures to give the space an elevated feel (in an easy-to-create way). The finishing touches: Beachy wall art by Gray Malin and a leafy plant add subtle, serene pops of color.

Small but Mighty Space

Have an awkward corner in your house? This is the perfect way to make use of a space that seems like it's not big enough for anything, according to designer and blogger Emily Henderson. All you need is a strategically placed chair, a small accent table, an ottoman, and a reading lamp—and voilà! If your corner has a shelf or two, add visual interest with horizontally and vertically stacked books, plus sculptural objects.

Outdoor Escape

Who says a reading nook has to be indoors? If you have a patio or balcony, add a couple of throw pillows and a comfy blanket to a bench to create an al fresco reading space surrounded by fresh air and lush plants.

Bedtime Story Spot

Abby Lawson of Just a Girl and Her Blog added an extra-comfy touch to her bedroom corner with a cushy chair, standing lamp, and a petite side table (best paired with a vase of flowers). Just resist the temptation to let your reading spot become the "clothes chair" — you know the one.

Closet Makeover

If you're willing to relocate your clothes to a standing wardrobe, you've got (almost) everything you need for a built-in bedroom reading nook, like this one from Less-Than-Perfect Life of Bliss. Transform your closet with stylish throw pillows, a hanging light fixture, and a tension rod with curtains — key for hiding away with your favorite read.

Stacked-Up Side Table

This simple office reading corner gets creative with a side table fashioned from stacked-up books that helps add definition to the space. A succulent terrarium and gallery-style wall art further bring the whimsical nook together.

Imagination Alcove

With clear acrylic racks to display beloved stories and a welcoming floor space decked out with pillows, this playful reading nook by First Sense Interiors is a foolproof way to get little ones excited about reading. But if you're looking to indulge your own imagination, this idea can be adapted for grown-ups; just swap in more adult-friendly design elements (and maybe a chair).
