POLL: Modern 'Rec' Room; Would you want one?

last modified: 8 years ago

Would love to hear your comments on the concept of the 'entertainment' devoted rooms that we are seeing more and more clients wanting in their homes... The 'rec room' or 'rumpus room' of days past has majorly evolved to include pleasures rivalling public establishments. This custom home pulls out all the stops on a room to entertain family and friends or retreat for the solitude of favoured personal pastimes. Would you want a room like this in your home? Would you get a lot of use from it? This space was perfectly personally designed for the clients. But would love to hear your thoughts. Full project can be seen here: https://www.houzz.com/projects/2733732/larger-than-life

I would LOVE to have a room like this, and would use it all the time.

I might like it, but not sure it would get used enough to make worthwhile.

I would have no interest in having this sort of room in my home.

My basement has a theater and play room that we now taking apart and making into one big reck room. We had couches on different levels and piles of kids would be playing on 2 to 3 tvs all linked to one game. But they game more on their computers now and don't really watch tv and parties/get togethers are VERY different now. So we decided to combine the rooms, make the floor all one level and set up a sectional that works with the tv but also for conversations. We'll also set up a poker table and some video game machines. Maybe a bar down the road.

I think reck rooms are really coming in.
