Media Room Ideas

January 10, 2011

One thing our house lacks that we wish we had was a family room or den in addition to the living room. It would be good to have another room where we could put our feet up, so I am thinking about turning our guest bedroom into a media room/office/guest bedroom. The room has to be multi-functional - The room would serve as a TV room, a guest bedroom, and a place for storage of crafts and clothing.

Here is the room currently: I love it and so do our guests, but it's most unoccupied 90% of the time with the exception that this is where I store my clothing and crafts. I hope turning this room into a media room will give us more usable space.

The bed takes up too much room, so we are going to replace it with a pull out sofa or day bed.

From Decor Pad. This is the arrangement that I think would be more functional.

On the opposite wall:


I am thinking a combination of these two - a TV console/bookshelf/wardrobe.


While in Italy, my friend had a large wardrobe system on one side of her bedroom and it was storage, a closet and also where she put her flat screen TV. I thought it worked very nicely and you could just slide the doors over.


On Pottery Barn, I played around with their room planner and this is how I would like to lay out the room.

The pieces need to be flexible since eventually this room would be a play room or another full bedroom again. We don't want to invest too much in the furnishings, but we do need it to be functional and fun!
