Greetings!

 

We have dance recitals on the brain this month in the Hoffman home, but for most families, the seasons are all about which sporting event is the driving force! Now that we are off and running into baseball season I have to admit that I hail from a NY family with heated passions split between Mets fans on one side of the family, Yankee fans on the other. Me, I prefer the movies (or ballet). But the point is - when taking in a great sporting event - or movie...sometimes doing it at home is THE GREATEST AND BEST of all worlds.

Enter...the media room. They are such a blast for me to design for my clients as we uncover their needs and wants and wishes. And clients just looove them. So for fun this month, Media Rooms are the topic.

And BTW, if you engage us to start a great media room project for you this month, you'll receive a $100 gift certificate to the electronics retailer of your choice...gotta make that TV wish come true after all!

Enjoy!

Donna

Tips for the Perfect Media Room
Media Room
 
I love when I'm asked to work on media rooms of all types for my design clients from Yardley to Philadelphia to Princeton. Today, media rooms fall into two classifications:
  • Dedicated Media Rooms look and feel like full out home movie theaters
  • Integrated Media Rooms, which are gaining trend today. This new term covers media rooms that also function in other ways - most usually as primary or secondary family rooms on the first floor or basement level of a home.
To get Media Rooms that hit the mark, one needs to keep in mind the following.
  • Budget. Always start here. I know it's dull and nobody ever likes talking to me about this when they first begin meeting with me. But "B-word" is to design as stick is to lollipop...it holds the whole thing together. Set your budget first, see how to get the most mileage and performance out of that budget. And if need be, be willing to break things into phases.
