room

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'maybe study' is the definition.
(I know that study is a room)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for room that I've seen before include "basic accommodation" , "Space, area" , "kitchen?" , "Space; part of building" , "Box ---, storage area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
