Before and After: Pool Room Done!

This has been a busy week of installs and works in progress, and I'm glad it's Friday night!  This before and after is one of my favorites.  I showed progress here if you want to catch up.

You might recall this before...




This family wanted to turn this uncomfortable, underutilized space into an entertaining destination, complete with pool table.  Here it is after the last of the install today...




The narrow coffee table will be a tad snug when a game is in play, but this room also has a tv mounted on the wall opposite the sectional, and the room needs to multi-task.  A little shift when needed and all will work just fine.




Remember the vintage pinball machine from the last post?  Now it has a couple of custom ottomans in an indoor/outdoor fabric hanging around by it.  These guys are on casters, so they can go anywhere in the room for extra seating when there's a crowd.

A new pub table and custom bar stools offer a place to hang and watch pool...




Another before...




(I believe the green seats on the right are from Fenway Park in Boston -- how fun is that?)  See the sand color in the beach art on the left wall?  That was the inspiration for the sofa color.






So this was my day today.  Finishing up one room, dropping of tile on another job, and ordering some fabric for another.  Good stuff to end the week!

Hope you have a fabulous weekend,
Carol

  1. This looks great! Love how the fabric on the ottomans and bar stools isn't overtly sea-inspired but one could be seaweed and the other could be sea urchins or anemone.

    I have a feeling this room will get a lot of use.
