Here is the current space. Again we will be replacing all furniture etc.

Other side

Anyone???

i think i remember you have teens/tweens so wondering if you would want a fridge or snack counter down there for movie nignts? we have that in our basement rec room and it keeps lots of traffic out of the kitchen - we also did a round game table for poker, spades etc and then we have the ikea kivic 6 seater with 2 storage ottomans for lounging (that thing holds lots of movie watchers and takes a beating) - we have it in the U shape configuration facing a large TV on a long/low console- it is simple and works well

Sorry I can’t help with layouts, hopefully one of the pros will swing by :)

Yes we have teens and tweens.

I’m thinking of doing one accent wall a dark colour and having the tv unit be same colour and possibly built in.

I like that idea - it will help a large Tv blend in and plenty of storage for games. A floor lamp of two would be nice for lighting and the wifi enabled bulbs allow teens to create custom lighting options for movie watching - for some reason my teens love creating different lighting scenes with Alexa 🤷‍♀️

My teens are angling for all kids of interesting lighting choices lol!

Thinking of this storage unit if we don’t go built in. This is more what my partner would spend on the space.

These are our ideas so far. Sectional, comfy recliner, soft ottoman/table, long and low tv stand, dark accent wall, round table and chairs, storage piece we already have and a nice rug.

Oh and air hockey lol

Agree much got debate we’ve decided to keep this sofa after all. So still building all new furniture around it. It’s a chocolate brown colour. What should we get for accompanying comfortable chairs?
