Safety in shared spaces requires clear norms, hygiene protocols, and respect for other residents. When dolls are stored in communal areas, use lockable cases or dedicated rooms to prevent unauthorized access. Cleanliness is non-negotiable: establish routine cleaning schedules, sanitize surfaces after use, and ensure proper ventilation to minimize odors and moisture buildup. Temperature and humidity should stay within recommended ranges to prevent material fatigue, mold growth, or deformation.
Handling should emphasize gentle support, especially around joints, and avoiding extreme bending that could cause tears. Use protective covers during transport and store components separately if disassembly is involved. Shared etiquette includes strict policies on consent, privacy, and cleanliness, with clear consequences for violations. By prioritizing safety, hygiene, and respect, communities can maintain a comfortable environment for all residents while preserving the integrity of the dolls and the space.
