Whether you're finishing high school, making plans for uni, or just trying to make homework feel like less of a chore, a fun, colourful and practical study space can make all the difference.
It's not just about having somewhere to put your laptop. A study nook should feel organised, inspiring and, most importantly, like you! Part of the joy of setting up or refreshing your space is decorating it to your own taste, whether that's through your favourite colour scheme or simply having somewhere you can put up all those special bits and pieces that keep you motivated or remind you of home.
That's where Mustard comes in. Our lockers and Storyboards combine clever storage and style, so your study spot feels like a space you actually want to spend time in. Let's unlock the key to your dream study space!
tricks for tricky spaces
When floor space is tight, every inch counts. The solution? Lockers! With shapes and styles to suit even the most awkward nooks and crannies, you're bound to find a locker to suit your needs. Got a dead space below shelving or hanging space? Pop The Lowdown in to maximise storage without taking up more room. Got a narrow space that nothing really fits in? Utilise vertical space and go up with The Skinny. Or squeeze The Shorty under your desk or by your bedside for a little extra storage.
express yourself
When it comes to storage, too often functionality means going for something that does the job but lacks personality. That's definitely not the case when it comes to Mustard! Pick your favourite colour from our 12-strong rainbow, and we guarantee it will be a talking point in your dorm. Plus, looking at your lovely locker will spark joy even in the middle of the exam period.
lock up tight
One thing we can all agree on is that intense study sessions require multiple snacks! To avoid your chocolate going walkabout, our lockers keep them under lock and key! Sharing a room? They're handy safe spaces to store your valuables.
multi-tasking magic
Got commitment issues? Don't worry. Lockers are designed to be super versatile. We've seen them be used for under-desk storage, wardrobes, office organisation, as a pantry, craft and sports gear, as a shoe rack, a bookshelf, a TV cabinet, a side table, a buffet, and so much more! If you're prone to rearranging, you'll love how easily a locker can jump from one job to another.
boarding school
Big ideas deserve to be put on display. The Storyboard and Buttons keep your desk (and your brain) clutter-free. Pin up your calendar, to-do list or reminders, or use it as visionboard for your goals and dreams. Feeling a bit sentimental? We get it. Use The Storyboard as a motivational memory keeper, where concert wrist bands, movie tickets and photobooth strips will be your daily reminder of all the good stuff to come!
flat pack, flat out
If the thought of a pre-semester trip to Ikea gives you chills — and not in a good way — breathe a sigh of relief. Here at Mustard, we love flatpack. Seriously. You won't be working up a sweat trying to interpret how step 73 expects you to connect bracket C to hinge F without using a welder. Promise! We make it our mission to make building our lockers a breeze. All you need is a crosshead screwdriver and a pair of hands or two. We've even created some lovely videos to walk you through it. You've got this!
take it with you
One of the very best things about a Mustard Made locker is that it's not a short-term purchase. This is not a piece of grey melamine that you'll want to leave in your dorm room when you go. It's a piece you'll be able to love — and keep — for years to come. Turn your dorm room shoe storage into your first home's TV cabinet or your study nook storage into a grown-up bar cart. The options are endless! Dismantling them is just as easy as building them, so you can flat-pack them off to their new home with you.
