1. Decorating, Paint Color Ideas | Home Theater, Game Rooms | Behr

  2. Behr.com shows you how deliberate color choices, light selection, and design techniques can enhance the enjoyment you get from your game area or home theater.

  3. Comfortable, stylish and classic design for your entertainment spaces

  4. Today’s homes are more likely to feature an entertainment center than homes in the past.  The availability of entertainment systems at affordable prices has opened the doors for more families to create a space dedicated to in-home entertainment.  From high-definition televisions to sophisticated sound systems to gaming consoles—and more—entertaining at home is experiencing a resurgence as the way to spend fun, quality time with family and friends.

  5. Not only do we see families and friends spending time enjoying the latest in high-tech entertainment, they are also including more traditional forms of fun in their entertainment mix.  Card games, board games, darts and other classic games are still popular ways to spend an evening at home.

  6. Whether you devote an entire room for media viewing and gaming fun, reserve a section of a room for your entertainment needs, or convert your living room into a multifunctional area, create a space that has style and ambience.  Try a timeless, classic interior design style that will stay in harmony with your high-tech equipment, your traditional board games and your unique lifestyle.

  7. Wrap Your Game Area with Traditional Warmth

  8. The calming influence of this game room will offset the excitement created from a high-stakes card game.

  9. Create a traditional, warm atmosphere for your gaming area. A card table stained in a rich walnut color helps establish a classic, old English pub style. Select chairs with the same walnut stain on the hardwood frames and deep-toned leather for the cushions. To further define that intimate setting, choose warm, earthy wall colors that envelop the room with masculine comfort and formal calm. A rich brown wall color that plays off the leather of the chairs gives the room a soothing, intimate mood. Try a two-toned wall treatment to add visual interest. Painting the lower portion of the wall in a dark, almost-black shade helps ground the space and gives the room a strong, masculine appeal.

  10. Modern Comfort for Your Home Theatre

  11. Dark walls, subdued sconce lighting, and oversized comfortable chairs all combine to create a theatre experience with all the comforts of home.

  12. A modern, streamlined look can be the perfect accompaniment for the sleek style of your high-tech entertainment equipment. Start with a moody, industrial gray color on the walls. This darker color adds contemporary drama to your space and will enhance your movie-viewing experience. Add visual interest by creating a focal point for your flat screen television with a horizontal band of color on the main wall. A soft golden color will add luminosity to the space that is further enhanced by the hushed lighting radiating out from the wall sconces. Complete the dramatic, theatrical look with décor items that are in keeping with the style. Vases that are sleek, glossy and a deep charcoal gray look elegant when arranged on a console table. Add an area rug in a bold, red-wine color to define the seating area. Oversized club chairs in a pale shade of cream will complement the golden stripe on the wall. Although the styling is modern, the color choices establish the overall mood of this space—intimate, comfortable and relaxing.

  13. With a classic interior design style, your media and game rooms are infused with the feeling of comfort and relaxation. Enjoy entertaining family and friends in these handsome and elegant rooms.
