Recreational Rooom

Updating our rec room, a project we temporarily have on hold. I like this room for our needs -- all grandsons and men who love sports. Let's assume there's a large TV screen across from sitting area. What would your ideal rec room look like?

I'd like ceiling fans to move air. A bar with refrigerator and microwave is nice for setting out snacks and drinks. Big TV of course.

I love the earth tones of this room. The great lighting makes what appears to be a dark room bright! I would swap out the pool table for a ping pong table, for sure. Otherwise, wonderful family space!

Sort of a closed minded view, I know, but when I think of rec rooms I think of finsihed basements and sort of a man cave mentality, so I'll take a pass altogether...

Agree about ping pong table. This would be used more at my house and a lot lighter to move! The denim sofa is a nice break from the earth tones, IMO.

While this a nice rec room, I am not into having rec rooms. It just isn't my taste although with children it is practical and works. But I'll pass on this type room.

Not a closed minded view IMO @stevieb. Growing up on the East coast rec rooms were usually finished basements. There was no such thing as "family rooms". The room pictured looks like a great rec room that if I had a basement I would love to have. Love the sofas.
