Fly2e's Media Room Renovation Part 1 !

Postby Fly2e » Sun Sep 10, 2006 1:47 pm

To See From Beginning, click me!


Here is the room that I am going to gut, re-wire, re-insulate, re-sheetrock, re-paint, new recessed lighting, custom a-v closet, custom wall unit with recessed 61"HDTV dlp, 40 gallon salt water fish tank recessed in wall, cultured stone ledge-stone wall around the fish tank, and some other overhauls that I will address.
The room is nothing much, just 14X16 big.
We were going to add onto the back and make it a bit bigger but it was just too much at this point in time.
Here are some shots of the room as I started to remove the sheetrock!



Shot of the room looking in from the kitchen area.

Here is a shot of the entrance and wall that the TV is going on. I will be making a custom oak entrance where the drop-cloth is.

This is where the sectional couch will be going. It will be on both walls and a corner piece.

In this shot, you can see where the tv is going to go and the fish tank!

Here is a sketch on the wall of my idea for the tank....

Looks like a major job.  In the end though you can stand back and be proud of the job you did!! :)  Then you can invite us all over to watch the Super Bowl!! ;D  I'm remodeling my kitchen.  If you want to do it for me i'd be very happy!! ;D

Ouch, renovations... don't start me on that one... I have a whole house to do...  ;D

Looks mighty fine! You'll enjoy yourself...

One note though... you might wanna change the way the door next to the fishtank opens... you don't want one of your little rascals to slam the door against the glass, creating a massive flood...  ;D

I hear you! I started back in 2001 and have almost completed the entire project!

Thanks Kris, I already did!
Actually, these shots were taken when I started the project, back in May.
I am actually almost done  :o
Just trying to sort the shots.

I am in the final phase, this weekend is some trim around the TV and then the A-V install in the custom closet!

Stay tuned!!!

Please say you have a wooden prop somewhere in this room. Theres nothing that brings together a room like a beech prop hanging on the wall.....or as a fan ;)
