ABSTRACT

Much has been written in the preceding chapters about the studio rooms being, first and

foremost, rooms for musicians to play in. Obviously, all the individual tastes of every

musician cannot be accommodated by any one studio design, so the ‘ultimate’ environment

cannot be produced. Nonetheless there are a few general points which are worthy of

consideration. Light colours, for example, make spaces feel larger than they would do if

finished in dark colours. In general, they tend to create less oppressive atmospheres in which

to spend long periods of time. Daylight in studios is also widely recognised as being very

popular.
