For each area in the room, we selected a beautiful modern table lamp, such as the industrial cement lamp we chose for above. Table lamps make the space more functional, and their glow makes you feel like you’re meeting with a colleague in the comfort of your own home. Greenery was also added to each quadrant to liven the space and keep any area from feeling too corporate. At the same time, most of the design elements you’ll see in these photos are modernist and businesslike: symmetrical, clean, straight lines, and a gender-neutral color palette. This “corporate-cozy” mixture is great for creating a welcoming atmosphere that maintains perfect professionalism.

We chose hair-on-hide pillows in an exotic chevron pattern to add texture and an eclectic rustic edge to an otherwise modern design sofa. The chairs we chose in this section have a pinstriped twill fabric and driftwood arms because we wanted to choose pieces with materials that matched the industrial appeal.

White and bright always looks stunning, especially in this large open space where the city sun comes pouring in through the windows. The bold pattern and nailhead detailing of the chair make it statement pieces.

Our game plan going in was to use both modern and traditional elements, blending together eclectic patterns and textures, to create a visually layered room. One of the first decisions we made was to divide the room into four quadrants. Why? Two reasons. First, usability. In a big open room filled with long tables, there is no way to create a defined space for conferences, group meetings, or casual conversation. With the room pieced into sections, the areas for talking are more intimate, and the sofas and chairs are triangulated in a way that facilitates conversation. Additionally, you can have four separate meetings or conversations occurring simultaneously without one group disrupting another, so it’s just practical. The second reason for the quadrants was design cohesion. It’s difficult to construct an eclectic look in a large room that is also cohesive. But by breaking the room up, we were able to design four parts that each have their own tone and personality, and then each of the four sections play off one another to work as a unified whole.

We chose a beautiful tribal-inspired pattern fabric from Central Asia for the sofa to bring an international vibrancy to the space. Choosing standout fabrics and upholstery against an inviting, neutral palette draws the eye in and really makes your design pop.

Eclectic Family Room Design Photos with Planked Wall Panelling

A eclectic family room – also referred to as a rumpus room or games room – is more casual and informal than a living room. Designed for relaxation and entertainment, it’s the go-to spot to kick back, watch TV, play music or while away hours playing a gaming console. Because it serves multiple functions, it often requires lots of storage space for the likes of DVDs, books and toys, and should be able to include everything from a comfy couch and occasional chairs to a TV, entertainment unit, desk and bookshelf. When you're planning your home and aren't sure where to start, the right architect can help you plan the space, and a cabinet maker can work with you to build customised storage options for your family needs. Below are some tips to get you started. Have a read and start saving some ideas for your project!

What storage should I include in my eclectic family room or rumpus?

Before you start buying furniture and decorating, look at your storage needs. If you have young kids, built-in cabinets, toy boxes or chests can help store toys that would otherwise be littered across the floor or stuffed inside the couch. Families with movie buffs or gaming enthusiasts will also need cabinets that are capable of stowing and concealing small electronics like DVD players and game consoles. And, if someone is still studying in your home, an office desk with drawers or a file cabinet is a worthy investment that will encourage good work habits.

How can I decorate my eclectic rumpus room?

The family room is often tucked away from more formal areas, so use the opportunity to get creative with your furniture and decor. Key furniture items, such as your couch and entertainment unit, are best kept neutral, so they can outlast any interior updates, while armchairs, coffee tables and any storage solutions can be more offbeat. Add colourful accessories to brighten up the space, and remember you can always swap these out should you get sick of your colour scheme. Curtains, rugs, throws and pillows are an easy way to add colour, while mirrors, floor or table lamps and ceiling lights will help bounce light throughout the space. Wall-hung artwork is a temporary way to add style and character, or you could be brave and add a colourful accent wall instead. As the main living space in your home, your rumpus room should be welcoming and personality-filled, so be sure to decorate it with personal knickknacks and family photos, too.
