Eclectic Home Theaters Full of Colorful Bliss: Unleash Movie Magic!

Oscar fever is behind us now. But for those still longing for wonderful evenings filled with best of Hollywood and great movie nights that last all year long, the home theater is indeed the perfect option. Modern home theaters are increasingly becoming more pocket-friendly and efficient when it comes to space management. Technology and wireless communication has significantly cut down the hassle of plugging everything together and today’s home theater can be placed pretty much anywhere. Be it the sensational outdoor home theater next to the pool or one that is neatly tucked into the basement, a home theater with eclectic styles has an aura of its own!

Eclectic home theaters allow you to bring together a wide range of décor and art pieces. All your favorite movie posters can find a new home in here and even the lighting can be a bit maverick and colorful. It is the art of creating multiple decorative layers with each complementing the other and in case of the home theater, that means you have greater options when it comes to seating, wall art and other accessories. So step into this dazzling world and be entertained!

Find the Right Seats

When it comes to the most important aspect of the home theater, then it is definitely the screen. Your entire movie viewing experience or game night largely depends on the screen that you choose and its size varies with your budget and the size of the room itself. A screen coupled with a top-notch projector is the heart of your home theater, but not too far behind are the seats you choose to put in. Comfort precedes aesthetics in here and the type of seating and its overall size depends on the number of members in your family and your frequent guest list.

Some love the theater-style seating but in the eclectic space, pick a more varied and diverse collection that also adds plenty of color to the interior. Iconic pieces like the Togo Sofa or modular couches in multiple hues are a great choice. They also allow you to rearrange the seating plan without much effort.

Making Most of Limited Space

Your home theater need not always be close to the size of that small screen in your nearest multiplex! Opt for something smaller in the urban apartment where space is modest. The eclectic theme here coupled with limited square footage means you want a backdrop that is as neutral as possible. Small home theaters and media rooms with just a few seats and an eclectic theme should cut back on using too many colors unless the background is completely white. Turn the focus towards the screen and ensure that every little accessory in here adds to this overall look.

Décor for the Eclectic Home Theater

In a modern or beach style home theater, you might be limited by the chosen style. But with the eclectic home theater, you have the option of introducing diverse art pieces, collectibles and iconic movie posters without worrying about breaking away from the central theme. Do still keep the flooring and ceiling as monotonous as possible for better watching experience and use colorful lighting when you are not actually watching something on the screen. At the end of the day, the real purpose of a home theater is to bring that movie-going experience to the comfort of your own residence!

25 Awesome Boho Chic Living Rooms: Delve into Bohemian Charm with Modern Frills

If there is one style that we absolutely adore (even if we cannot quite manage to pull it off in our own homes) then it is undoubtedly beautiful boho-chic. It is a style that cobines exotic and eclectic brilliance of bohemian with modernity that keeps things anchored and paints a picture of serenity. Creating the perfect boho-chic living room is far harder than most other styles just because there are no set rules on what you can and cannot do in here. Knowing the origin of the style, the blend it delivers and the overall appeal it needs to exude can make things easier for you. Boho-chic is a style that fills the living room with joy and you will be hard-pressed to look away!

This is a boho chic living room where you find an overload of pattern no matter where you turn!

The best boho-chic living rooms reflect the personality of the homeowner and allow them to combine their personal collection with a charming and simple backdrop. It sounds inherently uncomplicated and yet there is a definite method to what you can add to this space and how different elements are bound together by a common factor. Be it bold prints, brilliant pattern, loud color or even just an overload of greenery, these brilliant boho-chic living rooms offer everything you can ask for –

More Boho than Chic

Since we already talked about how there were no real rules for the boho chic living space, you can start off with something simple and uncomplicated and then add other layers on top. The word ‘bohemian’ is French for gypsy and this is where all things boho originated. A collection of amazingly unique décor pieces that these travelling folk brought together forms the basis of bohemian style and this is why an overload of pattern and color in here is acceptable. A living room that is more boho than chic puts your personal furniture collection center-stage and allows you to work around them.

That gorgeous Persian rug that you bought during your trip to Asia, a lovely cabinet in wood from the local flea market, smart accent pillows with tropical motifs and art pieces you collected over the years across many holidays can all combine to create that perfect boho chic living room. This is essential eclectic style with a global appeal, causal presence and a relaxing vibe that just does not go unnoticed.

Now for More Chic than Boho!

Not someone who is a very big fan of filling the room with an overload of pattern and color? Maybe you are just getting started with your art and décor collection and still want a living space that is boho-chic. Not to worry as this is the time when you can err more the side of modernity than on the bohemian part of things. Keep the backdrop as neutral as possible to ensure that the few dramatic décor and accent pieces that you have thrown into the mix feel that much more special. You can just pick two or three colors in here and stick to the palette and warm wooden finishes also look great in here.

Add Your Own Eccentricity

The thing we most adore about boho-chic style is the way in which it allows our own eccentricities (we all have them) to shine through. If you are a nature-lover, then you can fill the living room with greenery and the style agrees with you. If you tend to love modern art, then walls adored with trendy art pieces are the way forward; and once again the style agrees with you! In love with Hollywood? Want to pay a tribute to your favorite sport or athelete? Maybe you just want to fill the room with your amazing collection of bowls! The boho-chic room is an all-encompassing place where no one is excluded.
