MH8701,s Bedroom/Home Cinema

Its been a long time coming, But its almost complete.

Hopefully the carpet goes down on Thursday the 27th july

the beds getting delivered the same day, so fingers crossed i'll be in by the weekend.

heres some pics for you to look at whilst im ongoing this week!



Heres the room just before we started



Here it is once we had knocked the wardrobes out. you can just see the false ceiling at the top of the picture



This is the view from the back of the room. This is the wall i will be projecting onto



This is the view from the back of the room to the left



And this is the view from the back of the room to the right. This is where i will have my bed



A good 3 months on and this is what it looks like now.

Here is the back of the room, as you can see its all been painted and the cables are running through the ceiling



Heres the alcove again, the whole room has been painted and i think it looks allot better for it



Heres the wires running under the floor for the tv at the front of the room. They fit perfectly (depth wise) into the channel which is lucky.



And the final picture for the moment, the light switches. a remote dimmer for the room and a normal swithch for the hall light



please feel free to comment, and i'll have more pics and a spec list up at the weekend hopefully

thanks mike

Look good so far - more pictures required as you complete the job please.

I'd love my own room for HC, but have to compromise in our lounge.
