You’ve just invested in a home that feels truly yours and now it’s time to protect it.
At Luxe Design, we believe that luxury home care is just as important as luxury design. Without proper maintenance, even the most refined spaces lose their polish far too quickly.
Always check the specific care instructions that come with your furnishings and finishes. Every piece is unique, but consider this a helpful guide to the essentials.
1. Wallcoverings
- Dust regularly with a microfiber cloth.
- Protect from direct sunlight with window treatments or films.
- Spot clean gently; for delicate finishes, call a professional.
- Consider luxury vinyl alternatives for easy upkeep.
2. Rugs
- Rotate seasonally for even wear.
- Vacuum with suction only—no beater bars.
- Use quality rug pads for protection.
- Schedule professional cleaning every 12–18 months.
- Blot spills immediately (never rub).
3. Fabrics
- Vacuum upholstery weekly.
- Spot clean with care.
- Choose performance fabrics in high-use areas.
- Rotate cushions to maintain shape.
- Follow the fabric care code given by the manufacturer. Check out our cheat sheet below!
4. Stones
- Seal annually to protect against stains and etching.
- Use pH-neutral cleaners—never vinegar or harsh chemicals.
- Blot spills quickly, especially wine, citrus, or oils.
- Always use trivets and mats.
5. Furniture
- Dust weekly with a soft cloth to prevent buildup.
- Avoid silicone polishes—opt for wax-based finishes that nourish wood.
- Mind humidity levels, as fluctuations can cause warping or cracking.
