Looking for funky tween game room ideas

8 years ago

Our basement has 2 walls covered in river rock and a bead board ceiling. We would like the room next to it to be used for a tween game room. Since taking off the stones is not an option, what can we do to make this space really neat for the kids? Flooring will be changed, ping pong table has to stay. Everything else can be new. Room is 15x20.

since it's a basement, I'm a little concerned about lighting so I wouldn't want to go too dark. But what about a beige with a metallic silver horizontal stripe on the wall that is not covered with stone? Maybe update lighting with something really cool and industrial looking? I'd use accessories that are shiny stainless/silver to make it funky and fun!

Thanks! There is recessed can lights and an addition walk-out adjoining it so it gets some natural light but not a lot I love the idea of stripes!

Groovy Baby! Love it! I think if you are going to have a strong look like this, you have to go the whole hog to pull it off, otherwise it just looks like a bad take on a 'theme'; you nailed it, very well done!

You already have your accent colour as your sofa pillows (log roll pillows). I would take one of them shopping with me to get a rug that has that colour in it. It doesn't need to be a lot of that colour (I love the idea of burgandy rug here...but it might be too much with your monotone scheme). You can find a large rug that incorporates that red/raspberry in it so that you have a colour that is now your accent.

Hi Charlie, Hope these two suggestions work. The first one is similar to your initial idea, I just changed the orientation of your sofa and TV console. I suggest a modular sofa where you could make it L-shaped or two separate love seats whenever you like. Where you put your island looks like a good place; least amount of reno/hacking! PS I used Sketch's sticker functions to put in the furniture.
