Study (room)

A study is a room in a house which is used for paperwork, computer work, or reading. Often people will operate a home business from a study. A typical study would contain a desk and chair, computer, and other furniture. A spare bedroom is often utilized as a study, however many modern homes have rooms specifically designated as studies. These are usually located in a convenient area on the main floor of the house and may be referred to as a den or library.

Frequently, but not exclusively, the study of a house that a family lives in is used as the private room of the father. Other times, that room is the garage.
