Best bedroom setups?

I'm going to have my loft converted into a master bedroom and am thinking about what to do in terms of AV install.

Its going to be fairly simple ie nice TV/Sky/DVD player/sonos and mood lighting but needs to look classy.

Just wondering if people might be kind enough to put links up to bedroom installs that have impressed them?

Many thanks

Re: Best bedroom setups?

MitsiTurbo's bedroom sticks in my mind as being pretty impressive regarding ligthing and a nice feature wall. Can't really remember the AV side of it. You can find his full house build thread in the DIY section.

Thats the problem you see, neither are really what I would call bedrooms. Both look good, and Forces whole setup is stunning as we know. But both are just rooms with a bed, bedside cabinet and then the AV gear.
Where is the wardrobe space for my wifes clothes/shoes/handbags etc. Where is the big dressing table for my wife?

You see my point? Those setups are great for a single man, but for a family man they just don't work.
I need to see how somebody has integrated some AV kit into a 'working' bedroom with loads of wardrobes.

Thanks

Re: Best bedroom setups?

Maybe have a play around with something like Google sketch to see how you could fit everything in?

I'm pretty sure THE_FORCE has said before he's married/has a partner.

Anyway, maybe if you uploaded some pics of the room and the furniture that must go into it people will be able to suggest what you could do
