A wall-to-wall carpet in the playing area keeps it safe and comfortable while reducing noise. An area rug is not recommended simply because someone could trip over it, or it could get caught in chair or bar stool legs. With this in mind, select a very durable, easily-cleaned carpet. Remember that designing your game room needs to accommodate the heavy traffic it will receive, as well as the fact that there will be food and drinks ever-present. Other design elements must follow function.

One very popular choice is Tiffany-style lighting, which has a wonderful warm light with a vintage appeal. Wall lighting is also important and should compliment the pendant lights. There are many fun billiard-theme pendant lights, but regardless of the style, you’ll want some good lighting directly over the pool table, so hanging lights are the best choice here. A billiard room calls for styles that reflect the use, from playful and whimsical to clubhouse casual. Of course, we are talking about lighting, which has a huge role in defining the mood and tone of a room. The next step in designing your billiard room may not be what you expect, but it is as important as the room itself. Having these elements can turn a billiard room into an all-around game room. Now you have the bar minimum in design, but as space allows, you may want to add game chairs or other seating, and a game or card table. Of course, you’ll need a wall with a substantial area for the pool cues, pool bridge, pool rack (or triangle, as its called), and perhaps a scoreboard. This is really a nice touch, especially for older players who may need to rest up between shots.

Then, as room permits, add bar or counter stools for the other players to sit on while waiting their turn.

Add your perimeter for players to move around and easily use their pool cues. Making room for the table is only the first step in designing your room for both player mobility, spectator comfort, and use by other non-pool playing members of the family.ĭesign your billiard room with the pool table at the center, because of course, it is the center of attention. Remembering that at least 5 feet is required as a perimeter around most pool tables, you will need at least a 13 foot wide room for a smaller 7-foot table (more on this later). In fact, given the requirements for players to use their pool cues in any number of positions around the billiard table, it is strongly recommended that you start with the floor plan before even deciding on your pool table purchase (if you do not have one already at this point in the planning). The billiard room layout should start with a solid plan, either on paper, or preferably using a 2D to 3D room planning tool such as. It is important to remember that player mobility is the most important aspect in designing your pool room.
