Design Examples / Modern / Play Room
The play room in any home is
the place you can go let it all out. Featuring recessed geometric
ceilings that show off reflected light. The recessed lighting
also makes the room feel more spacious. Flooded with a cool glow
and accented with six large windows, this room is wide open with
possibilities. Strong colors accented with black and white details
give the room a bold clean feeling. The custom pattern tile floor
and checker board pattern of the quilt keep the strong geometric
theme alive. The lamps offset the linear, square theme with their
fluid, organic lines. They are complimented by the relaxed canvas
chair in the corner. This is a fun room for all ages, perfect
for a jam session or romantic evening of quiet classical music.

Flooring: Durable tile
floors bring style and class to this room. Ceramic tile will
withstand the toughest of teenagers. The hard nature of tile
flooring will create a high amount of ambient noise. This should
be taken into consideration when planning a playroom. Spills
and stains are not a concern for tile, so hosting a party of
10 or more people would be no problem.
Windows: Full height double
glazed windows add a wealth of outside light while retaining
all the indoor environment be it winter or summer.
Wall Paint: A cool
gray that nearly looks white, cleans up easily and feels
inviting. Stay in and play a while, let your hair down.
Lighting: Nestled in the recessed ceiling, these
canned light
fixtures are hidden but direct a wealth of ambient light,
providing great task lighting. A comfortable light level can
be set for any occasion when placed on dimmer switches.
Accessories: A play room should be fun, that's why
a pair of funky swirly lamps atop a sleek ottoman fit so well
in this room. A set of high tech musical instruments also adorns
this room as would any musical instrument be it a piano or a
guitar rack.
Furniture: A pair of oak
futons provide great seating for the concert at hand. Futons
are a good choice because they can accomodate more guests than
a guest room. This room would be ideal for a pool table, ping
pong table, excercise equipment, or pinball game. |
