There are a lot of things you can do with that space under a staircase. like turning it into a design element, a closet or storage, a spot to do laundry, or a bedroom for an orphan (not recommended). But one of the best uses for that space is as a reading nook or small library. With that in mind, I thought I’d share some visual inspiration…

Would love to do this. The swing is cool, but I think a comfy sitting chair, perhaps a wing back, would work best.

I would definitely get motion sickness if I tried to read while swinging. When your own brain doesn’t want you to have fun (but I can dream).
