Your studio looks lovely. I have a few Ikea items in mine too (the Alex drawer and a kitchen cart) along with some cork boards and my computer. Can't wait to see some more murals on that chalk wall.
Looks great Ian. Must be so nice to not be shuffling equipment in and out of a smaller desk space all the time! Dream studio needs soundproofing, that would be fantastic.
Thank you for this! I would love to have your books :D Would you be kind enough to share them with us please? If you already did, can you point me to them. Would be so cool. Thank youuu Ian.
Hi Ian... What a great.little studio you built. I have room for one here, but at my end of life, I satisfy myself with a converted bedroom. I don't do much lettering these days, but I still like to paint landscapes, and practice my calligraphy. Have to keep busy! Thanks for the videos, and best of luck. John in Brum.
Welcome Back :) Thank you for sharing with us. What a perfect space to create!! My dream studio would be an open warehouse type space so that I also hold events & Such :)
Congratulations and love love your new studio! It's cosy and well-equipoed! Could you please make a video on some of the books to recommend from you collection of books? Appreciate how to split them into categories as well.
Beautiful studio! I have several Ikea pieces in my studio, functional and visually appealing (yet understated). What a lovely space to be creative! Discovered you recently on TH-cam and love your videos! Just keep them coming. I bought your “Chalk Dust” Procreate Brushes in the “Creative Market” (before I discovered your TH-cam Channel) and love them - thank you so much!
Thank you very much for the tour, welcome back i missed your videos. Also i really like your idea about hanging pens and pencils, i should implement it in my studio.
Ive moved as well and still have not sorted my art space!! I love that ikea pen holder mounted on the wall, saves a lot of desk space. I wish we had ikea here. This is junoondesigns from iG. I think you could have just asked ikea to sponsor you lol. Turned out great, love the functionality of it all. Is the sound board soft enough? Maybe you could add a peg board to it to mount any art stuff and hang some of your art pieces to add a personal touch to the space.
Great little place, i love the feeling you are putting on your little cozy art house. Great job..i just hope those AKIA hold...:) i got but experience that's why :( Thank you for your refreshing video..i will suscribed now..you look like a pretty cool person. thanks again.
Don't know how much electricity it's using as it's on my house supply. Size wise it's 5m long by 2.4m wide. Yes happy with it after 2 years, though wish I'd added more insulation in the walls for the winter.
I use scaffolding boards (aka cheap timber) but they've now warped and I've changed them for a solid oak worktop which I used in my previous studio and is still perfectly straight
Hi, really love your new studio. I am hoping to have something very similar installed in my back garden. Sorry to be so womanish, but could you please tell me if you get many spiders in it? Thanks for sharing!
Nice studio Ian! Congrats! What is that black panel on the wall to the left of the window? I understand that the large black panel is to muffle sound, but what is the other, smaller panel?
Very nice place to work Ian. It looks amazing! Could you please share the name of the company selling these flatpacks studios? I would like to buy one. All the best.
What about the building codes in UK? Is this container ilke construction exempt from building regulations? If you intend to build something completely new, you will probably need to get planning permission. Did you get information from your local planning authority?
What would you have in your dream studio?

Congratulations, what a nice place for work and inspiration! I love the chalk board!
Thanks. It was the first thing I put in there. Still learning as I haven't really done much chalk work before.
It is very "dusty" (too much cleaning) but very pretty! You'll create impressive signs!
I think I need to buy a little vacuum cleaner just for the dust!!
😄😆👌
Oh my god! As a textile printer, this is studio is my dream and target!
Really good idea to make it separately from the house, really nice mini studio!
Also like the chalkboard!
Thanks Christian
Awesome studio. Love your tutorials so much better than others on TH-cam. Can't wait for new videos. Cheers.
Thanks, I really appreciate that.
Glad to see you, Ian! The studio is *AWESOME* !
Thanks. Good to see you guys as well.
Love your design work and your beautiful studio! It’s a fantastic space! Well done!
Thanks Pablo.
Happy for you!
Thanks Curt.
Congratulations! This looks great!
Really happy with it.
Loved it because it helped me organize my own ideas about creating a creative work flow in a space. I love your podcast as well!
Thanks for listening to the podcast! Glad the video inspired you with your own space.

That looks like such a nice setup! Definitely like to hear more about which books you found helped you the most.
Will definitely do that!

IKEA sometimes comes up with so really good solutions.
Looks like a great space to work! I really like that pegboard idea for your pens. I might have to try that out!
It was something I spotted when I went to IKEA and it definitely helps me be more organised with my pen collection
Wow this is an amazing studio! Lucky guy!
it looks OUTSTANDING!! love it!
That's a nice space! looking fwrd for the work you put out there!
Cool space Ian
Such a cool space!
I'm a great fan of your work it's amazing.

Watching your video you got me interested in vintage type books and which ones are the very best. Thanks
Studio looks rad.
Cheers Chris.
Welcome back Ian!!!

Wow, this looks like a dream :)
Took a long while to get there. 👍
best of luck, Ian
Thank you.
Nice space!!
this is a great studio'
did you talk about cost, square foot or meter, additional cost of electricity. and after 2 year are you happy with the size
Don't know how much electricity it's using as it's on my house supply. Size wise it's 5m long by 2.4m wide. Yes happy with it after 2 years, though wish I'd added more insulation in the walls for the winter.
What a place I love it. I liked the long holder. From where 😻
Looks great! Im about to start work on my own home studio. For the worktops what did you use? Id like something like what you have. Cheers
I use scaffolding boards (aka cheap timber) but they've now warped and I've changed them for a solid oak worktop which I used in my previous studio and is still perfectly straight
@@IanBarnard yeah i thought they might of been and that was my concern with them. I think i might go for a kitchen worktop. Cheers for the reply mate.
Hi, really love your new studio. I am hoping to have something very similar installed in my back garden. Sorry to be so womanish, but could you please tell me if you get many spiders in it? Thanks for sharing!
I haven't had any visit me yet. You'd need to make sure it's properly sealed and insulated to stop them coming in.
Nice atmosphere
Thanks.
Nice studio Ian! Congrats! What is that black panel on the wall to the left of the window? I understand that the large black panel is to muffle sound, but what is the other, smaller panel?
It's also to muffle the sound and stop sound reflecting.
Nice studio 👍 !!
Thanks Louise.
Nice nice very nice

Very nice place to work Ian. It looks amazing! Could you please share the name of the company selling these flatpacks studios? I would like to buy one. All the best.
All info is in the description 👍
Hi Ian, LOVE your new cave 👍🏼
Question: why do you use a damp cloth, after you prime it with chalk? Wont you remove the chalk?
Yes, I ment to say a dry cloth then remove with a damp cloth. This is the article about priming. farmfreshvintagefinds.com/priming-chalkboard/
Ian Barnard - Thanks
Great setup! Can you give us a link for the microphone/camera-phone holder on the table?
The link is in the description under the drawing area section.
Do a tutorial about mural chalk lettering
Will add it to the list of videos to do.
What about the building codes in UK? Is this container ilke construction exempt from building regulations? If you intend to build something completely new, you will probably need to get planning permission. Did you get information from your local planning authority?
It’s a temporary building under 2.5 metres so doesn’t require planning permission. It’s literally a glorified shed.
@@IanBarnard thanks for the information. Great place to work...
pricetag?
