We have rooms in our homes for all sorts of activities — eating, sleeping, cooking, lounging — so why not make room for fun and games, too? Today I’ve collected some inspiration for creating your own room for fun in your home, otherwise known as a game room!

Create zones for a variety of activities. A game room should accommodate multiple activities, such as board game playing, movie watching, ping-pong/fooz-ball/pool playing. Create zones for these by grouping furniture and using rugs to delineate different spaces for different activities. Keep in mind that some zones can serve more than one purpose!

Use decorative accessories to up the “fun” factor. This space’s decor should reflect the hours of fun and games that will take place, so I’ve rounded up some fun ideas…

Or maybe that other half of the garage would work. When the weather starts get chilly, you’ll be glad to have a little room for fun inside your home.
