Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions, we're here to help

What is a common room in a school or university?

A common room in school is a shared space where students can relax, socialise, or study. It typically features durable and comfortable furniture like sofas, chairs, and tables designed for regular use by groups.

Why is our common room furniture suitable for students?

  • All our sixth form common room furniture is made in the UK and Sweden to a high commercial standard using high-quality wholesale materials. So if you need a sofa suitable for college students then look no further
  • All our common room seating is designed especially for these types of hi-impact interiors such as schools, colleges and universities

View the smaller cube seating if you have limited space, and for larger soft common room furniture, like the pink modular sofa, it will be more suitable for college or school common rooms.

As trusted university furniture suppliers we help ensure all products meet the demands of educational environments.

Can you make university furniture in any size?

  • Yes, you can pick your own common room furniture size
  • Products like the  our modular grey booth and sixth form chairs like the Ace chair are made to order, and the price does not hugely increase with bespoke measurements
  • For advice on sixth form furniture and what is available contact us at [email protected]

What is the best upholstery material to use on common area furniture?

The hardest wearing material is faux leather or vinyl as it is often known.

  • As primary school furniture suppliers this vinyl-like material is stain resistant, wipeable and very resistant to wear
  • The vinyl comes in a broad range of satin colours that can be mixed and matched on your common area furniture

For a two-tone look: A wool fabric on the sofa back will give the furniture a more homely feel in your student sixth form common room.

View our range of vinyl and wool fabric colours.

Is the vinyl material wipe clean?

Yes, the colourful vinyl material is wipe clean. Use a damp soft cloth with a small amount of washing up liquid or vinegar and wipe off any dirt.

How long do the sofas take to order?

Most of the sofas take around 6 weeks to order. This can include bespoke sizes on some ranges. If you need by a certain date please contact us.

How are the sofas delivered?

The sofas require the legs fitting before use. Spaceist can provide an assembly and installation service throughout the UK.
