Is Your Man Cave Ready for Super Bowl Sunday?

The most watched game in USA National Football is quickly approaching. Is your man cave ready to host family and friends for Super Bowl LIII between New England Patriots (American Football Conference champions) and Los Angeles Rams (National Football Conference champions) to determine the champion of the National Football League for the 2018 season.

If it is not ready, you’ll want to get started soon for next year or at least to create the perfect spot to hang out with the guys all year round to watch your favorite sports team in your Man Cave? Or, are you interested in designing a great place for your family to bond together to play games and watch your favorite movie or binge watching a Netflix’s series?

Consider installing a custom Media Cabinet Design that would make any neighbor or friend wishing they had one just like yours.

Here are some ideas on moving forward designing your Man Cave:

Designing

Several steps to consider when designing your Media Room:

·      Budget – Set a budget

·      Purpose of Room – How are you going to use the room? Who is going to use it?

·      Floorplan – Measuring and draw the room

·      Construction – Will you require any construction? Will you need sound proofing? Will you have a wet bar and need a sink?

·      Lighting – This sets the mood of the room. Determine a plan.

·      Flooring – What type of flooring do you currently have in the space? Will it work with your vision for the Man Cave? Consider adding a rug to absorb some of the sound.

·      Electrical outlets – Where do you want / need them?

·      Type and size of furniture – Plan out what you need and where. Seating is important. Then, figure out where to buy it.

·      Organizational Storage – What cabinetry and fixtures will you need to house your items? Do you have a vast DVD or game collection, or you simply want to showcase trophies, framed photos, or other special mementos?

·      Appliances – Determine what items you will need in the room for your comfort: refrigerator, microwave, TV, DVD, sound system, speakers, etc.

·      Artwork – What walls are available? What theme / décor will coordinate with your home décor?

·      Window Treatments – Do you need room darkening shades or curtains?

·      Temperature – Check out the room’s temperature. You may need to bring in an HVAC company to discuss options to make the room more comfortable especially if it is the room over the garage or an older home.

Space Planning

When planning your idea space, you’ll want to consult with an organizational expert in the field so you can get educated on all of the latest trends, materials, ideas, styles, cabinets, etc. Then, you can develop your wish list, floorplan and make your new Man Cave come to life.

Consulting with a Media Room expert is a great idea in the beginning stages to see what the latest trends are, items are available for storage and organizational tools, and how to make it all fit in your budget.
