In-Home Theaters and Game Rooms

Theaters and Game Rooms

Let’s talk in-home theaters and game rooms! If you love going to the movie theater, grabbing some popcorn, your favorite candy, and laying back in a recliner, you could have the same luxury right at home! Whether you are in the beginning stages of designing your home, or a renovation project, it is never too late to add a little piece of luxury! At Fratantoni Interior Designers, one trend that we see is clients wanting to add theaters and game rooms. Or, the combination of two being a media room!

 

In-Home Theaters and Game Rooms

 

One advantage of home media rooms is the convenience and savings that come along with them. Popcorn? A popcorn machine in the corner of the room! Candy? A mini bar with snacks and a refrigerator with drinks. Whether you add your favorite couch or rows of recliners, you can pick your favorite seat, and choose your spot without someone beating you to it! We cannot forget to mention, you can choose the movie!

 

Additionally, another advantage is the entertainment aspect. The combination of in-home theaters and game rooms are often called media rooms or entertainment rooms. We have seen billiards, foosball, and pool tables incorporated into media rooms. This room is perfect for friends and family, to beat the heat (or the cold!) and provides a separate space for indoor entertainment. As seen below, additional features can include a bar area, second kitchen, trophy room/storage, and a surround sound system to enhance the room.
