yeah, sorry - my bad. I later realised you were responding on topic! haha.

..and there's certainly nothing wrong with wanting a good look to your studio! Indeed I'd say its essential!

My absorbers will be thick slabs (80mm or so) covered in nice fabric, mounted away from the wall with wood blocks. My vision for this is a pretty funky look - I'm just hoping it will be in practise lol.

I'm going to have corner traps too which will have wooden frames. As I understand things, its best to have an airtight seal behind the corner bass traps.
