Furniture

Escher is home to many types of furniture. This includes standard furniture, non-standard furniture, and personal furniture.

Standard Furniture

This is the furniture found in every bedroom. Members have access to one of each, except for members living in a double, who may only have one Old or Tall wardrobe. Escher uses Brill Lifespace furniture series for our standard room furniture items. Specifically, we use the following items:

• Metal Bookcase (BBF97) 36 inches wide x 30 inches tall x 12 inches deep
• Wooden Bookcase (BBF06) 35 inches wide x 30 inches tall x 12 inches deep
• Desk (BBF07) 36 inches wide x 30 inches tall x 24 inches deep
• 3 Drawer Dresser (BBF04) 36 inches wide x 30 inches tall x 24 inches deep
• Loftable Bed (BBF01) 84 inches long x 40 inches wide x 30 inches high
• Ladder (BBF77) for use in lofted or bunked beds

(All dimensions external, see Brill's Lifespace product line for more information)

Wardrobes

Escher has a few standard wardrobes.

• Old wardrobes - approximately 72 inches tall x 40 inches wide x 24 inches deep
• Tall Wardrobes - approximately 60 inches tall x 36 inches wide x 24 inches deep
• Short Wardrobes - approximately 42 inches tall x 35 inches wide x 24 inches deep

The short wardrobes may be stacked on top of the 3 Drawer dresser. The tall wardrobes may be able to be used in lofting, but this is still untested.The old wardrobes are being phased out due to their age, but are still preferred by some residents due to their size.

Non-Standard Furniture

Many items in our house, particularly in our common spaces, are non-standard furniture. These items may be shelves or similar items installed in rooms by previous residents, couches or shelving in common spaces, or remaining pieces of furniture that was previously standard before being phased out. Many residents find these bits of non-standard furniture in their rooms to be helpful, but if you would like them removed upon move-in, people will be available to assist in this process.

Personal Furniture

Some pieces of furniture, even furniture in common spaces, is their personal furniture which they retain ownership of. They are usually open for the use of anyone, but the owner may remove that furniture at their discretion. The disappearance of a couch or shelf is likely not theft, but someone taking back something they brought when they moved in.
