We have a raised platform for that {oh and chairs too!}
Mathlete has been hard at work in the basement finishing up the mechanical and framing. I’ll get to the mechanical stuff in another post {i.e. when he is around to help me because I just think the thing he made looks a little like a weird hat}.
This is all about theater seating!
You may remember from our basement layout that we have a theater area planned
Part of the theater plan includes two levels of seating. Our current family room couch will take a dive down the stairs and be the lower tier. Mathlete just recently finished up the “upper” tier where the fancy chairs will go.
It started with a simple box frame
Then, he added another level to make the height he wanted making sure it was reinforced in the right places along the width
The front little section is a small step to get onto the tier
From there, he added plywood to form the top/floor…here is isn’t secured down because the electrician needs to get under there first
Here is the view of the eventual screen from the tier.
Now, obviously, we aren’t putting in all this work to have everyone sit on the floor of the tier. Nope…we’ve got some swanky home theater furniture picked out {and purchased!} for it.
Give me a HiFi…
We will have 2 chairs on each end with a loveseat connecting them. Love the electronic reclining feature!
Down in front of the tier, I also hope to add a modern coffee table in front of the couch too.
Who’s ready for a movie? We’re definitely getting closer!
