Gaming room - ideas for a gamer room decor

We have long moved away from the stereotype in which virtual entertainment was reserved only for children. Currently, computer games are as popular as other media, so anyone can be a player! Does this mean that a gaming room or a gamer's room is already a standard in modern homes? You could say so, although gaming rooms will vary depending on age and preferences, as well as (as usual) on the size of the space and wallet. We will arrange a spacious gaming room for a professional in a different way, a room for a teenager, and a room for a gamer in an apartment where the wife decides on the decoration.

When we type "gamer's room inspirations" online, we may come across projects that blow us away with their scale. But we don't have to build a spaceship cockpit in our bedroom to play Star Trek! In fact, to decorate a gamer's room (gaming room - as industry experts prefer to say), all you need is a gaming system and a few thematic accents.

What should be in a player's room?

Items for a gamer's room will vary depending on the equipment used. The two main hardware solutions are a set with a console or a set with a computer, although many players combine both entertainment platforms. We usually play on the console while sitting comfortably on the sofa or in an armchair, we also need a cabinet under the TV and, of course, the TV itself. An important addition is a coffee table on which we can rest our legs or place snacks. If we are decorating the room of a gamer and a console fan, a large-format wall mural per that can be stuck on the wall behind the TV seems to be a great solution. Abstract modern wall murals, especially those in dark colors , like the model "Big Victory" will be the perfect background for the screen!

However, a room for a gamer who prefers a PC is primarily a desk with a computer with a monitor. A more formal position also requires an ergonomic and comfortable office chair or gaming chair. In this configuration, smaller additions to the gaming room - posters or paintings with a video game motif - will work better.

Discover some fascinating gaming rooms

When decorating a gaming room, inspirations, as we have already mentioned, can be crazy. However, basically, gaming rooms are divided into three aesthetic camps.

1. The first style, which we will call museum style, is characterized by an abundance of details, colors and gadgets! This is the room of a player who likes to collect and surround himself with his collection of games, comics, films, figurines, etc. She also loves personalized accessories (e.g. mugs and pillows).
2. The second style is futuristic minimalism. The gaming room is filled with black, brightened by the light of electronics and illuminated surfaces. Although the furniture is usually dark, functional and simple, there is no shortage of aggressive color accents - neon green, purple, turquoise and red are colors close to the virtual aesthetics. A good addition would be futuristic posters or fantasy wall murals that will emphasize the avant-garde nature of the arrangement.
3. Retro style - this gaming room uses old-style gaming equipment and vintage accessories for decoration. The motifs and colors of the accessories refer to iconic consoles and classic games from the 80s and 90s, they are bright and basic colors: red, green, blue. This style is perfect for canvas prints "We're playing?".

Regardless of the style, a gaming room should reflect the owner's hobbies. It's great that at bimago we have a large collection of prints, wall murals and posters designed especially for gamers!

Gaming room accessories

In addition to the gaming equipment itself: a computer or console, mouse, keyboards, headphones and speakers, a gamer's room cannot do without good lighting. Desk lamps, floor lamps, LED strips and other light sources create the right atmosphere. There are also accessories for the player's room that every owner of the so-called "man cave". Such an extra addition will certainly be a mini fridge (you don't have to go to the kitchen to get drinks and snacks) and custom-made furniture (often foldable and enabling the convenient use of various technologies, depending on the game medium).

Sometimes it is your favorite game or genre that determines what gaming room accessories will be in the room. For example, if you are a fan of science fiction, modern materials, glass and metal elements, and a minimalist interior will suit you. A reference to the futuristic atmosphere will also be wall murals with sky and with sci-fi themes, for example UFO wall mural, or posters with a space motif.

Are you planning to arrange a gaming room? The design should include a division into 3 zones: a space for gaming, relaxation and a place for... bragging rights!

1. The first zone is a gaming station, and every detail in this place should support immersion in the virtual world. Here, the most important thing is comfort and functionality, because an ergonomic chair, a large monitor, and good sound system support concentration during the game.
2. Gaming rooms are also a personal relaxation space where you can sit with friends, eat or drink something (the above-mentioned mini-fridge comes in handy here) or play more classic card or board games (the interests of real gamers are rarely limited only to computer games).
3. The last zone displays collected games, equipment and gadgets. A room for a gamer-collector cannot be complete without elegant display cases and shelves for CDs, books, figurines and other thematic accessories. It is also a good idea to emphasize your passion by decorating the wall gaming wallpaper.

A small gaming room

So far, we have described dream gaming rooms, i.e. independent rooms that can accommodate every technological whim and fashionable accessory. However, a place to play, especially on a console, is often simply in the living room or in a room that also has other functions. In such a If the gamer's room" is more of a player's corner, it is worth smuggling gaming flavors in the form of minimalist, black and white and neutral graphics, such as Choose Your Destiny canvas that won't clash with any modern decorating style.

What if we only have a small gaming room or a space that is difficult to arrange, e.g. a gaming room in the attic? Then a thematic wall mural is a great addition! It easily adapts to slopes and can be ordered to a size suitable for a small space. Although impressive, the wall mural does not take up space, and those with an optical depth effect, such as the wall mural "Space terrace", they can even visually enlarge the room.

Gaming room accessories and original wall decorations

Popular accessories for a gamer's room are often in a retro style, and the decoration reflects nostalgia for the 80s and 90s. A gamer's room can be successfully decorated with motifs referring to iconic titles, old technology and first gaming experiences, in the style of our print called "Ready”. As you can see, players can be sentimental!

We also mentioned earlier the crucial importance of lighting. The player's room will be atmospherically illuminated by colorful light bulbs, furniture illumination, keyboard lighting, mouse lighting, as well as very fashionable LED lights or neon lights. A cheaper and more accessible alternative to the latter are images in neon colors, typical of video games. Our gaming canvases, such as print "Symbols of fun", emanate light and represent control key symbols and terminology known from games. For a better effect, you can illuminate them with LED strips!

Have you heard the term gaming room for the first time? The gaming room is a place for playing computer games, but not only that! It is a space where players express their passions and showcase their hobbies through decor and accessories. Regardless of the decoration style, a player's room should maintain aesthetic consistency and use solutions that will ensure a better gaming experience - ergonomic equipment and atmospheric accessories.
