My Theatre Room (7.2) and Living Room (2.0) Systems
Last year I posted my Living Room system in this very sub-forum (HERE) but never got around to posting my newly renovated Theatre Room. As the Living Room has changed somewhat, Ive decided to start a new thread. I kept a running blog of my HT renovation (linked on my signature) for anyone interested. Anyway enough talk, here's the systems - I'll start with the Theatre first:-

I love that colour too. Mine's all beech, but I think dark oak or walnut looks more sophisticated.

Absolutely fantastic! I like the DIY wall panels. Are they faux suede? Also, you mentioned the footstools, are they DIY aswell?
