What is it? Seems to grow out of some wooden areas in the room. I've tried peroxide and bleach. Would a steamer help? Sorry in advance for the bad picture quality.

Mold growth on furniture is weird. Mold needs two things: moisture and something to eat. Usually if a room has enough moisture, you're going to get mold or mildew on fabric and more porous things before you're going to get it on treated wood. Does the room smell like mold or mildew?
