Like any space, your studio needs good furniture, and maintaining that furniture is crucial for aesthetics and functionality. This is where proper care comes in. Taking good care of your studio furniture can extend its lifespan, ensuring it remains a reliable part of your creative space.

Cover Your Furniture

Covering your studio chairs is one of the best decisions you can ever make. This can enhance not only longevity but functionality of your studio too. Stores such as IKEA offer a variety of protective solutions that can keep your studio furniture in top condition, ensuring it withstands the rigors of daily use (your studio could be a high-traffic space, remember). For chairs, you may want to use the stylish IKEA slipcovers, which can easily be removed and cleaned. Also, Ikea covers come in various series, including EKTORP and FÄRLÖV, which feature removable covers too.

Regular Cleaning

You already know that dust and debris can accumulate quickly in a music studio and affect equipment and instruments around. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe surfaces regularly. For wooden furniture, a damp cloth can help remove stubborn grime- be sure to avoid soaking the wood.

Avoid Direct Sunlight

Long exposure to sunlight can cause fading and damage your otherwise shiny furniture. That’s why you should place your furniture away from direct sunlight. Alternatively, you can use curtains and blinds to keep sunlight at bay.

Regular Inspection

Take time to check for any signs of wear or damage every once in a while. This may involve tightening any loose screws and bolts to preserve stability. Any issues should be addressed promptly to prevent further deterioration.
