Organizing a home study with the right features is important. Architect Sanjukta Nandy reveals how to efficiently organise your home study with the help of technology.

To begin with, you can use a tablet instead of a desktop or laptop. This will help you store your schedule in the tablet. You can also have your important files uploaded to the machine for easy accessibility.
Always keep a hard drive handy to store backup. This saves you the hassle of losing any important documents.
To stay away from any kind of disturbance and help you concentrate better make use of earphones instead of speakers. If you have the habit of listening to music while doing some other task headphones or earphones are your best bet.
As internet is easily accessible these days, you can seamlessly connect many devices at one time. For example you can access your project on the big screen. Similarly Mac users can use Apple TV.
Keep a spike guard or extension cord handy as the connectivity points may not be accessible where you have your desk all the time.
If you frequently get calls, these can be forwarded to the mobile phone. Avoid using landline phone. This ensures your home study is free of clutter as well.
LED lights can be a part of your table décor. You can also use it as a table lamp. Movable LED lights are another option. As doctors suggest that LED lights are good for the eyes you can use it if you are someone who stays awake for long hours.
Apps are in trend these days. GoToMeeting and Skype are two apps that can be used. These help you arrange or have a video conference and audio conference. GoToMeeting app also gives your reminder of scheduled meeting. It saves you the hassle of travelling as you can have a virtual conference with someone you cannot interact with otherwise.
