A good gamer room still looks like a room. These ten ideas lean on colour, lighting and a few strong pieces instead of covering every surface with merchandise.
- Start with the wall art. One large piece sets the mood. A glowing scene such as a dragon over snowy peaks or floating sky islands works as a focal point above the bed.
- Pull the palette from the art. If the canvas is warm sunset oranges and pinks, use one of those colours in a cushion or a lamp shade rather than a new colour.
- Build a row of three. Three matching square canvases above the desk, such as the sword, pickaxe and potion, look like a deliberate display. See how to hang them.
- Use warm light. LED strips behind the desk or under a shelf make the dark backgrounds in our loot canvases glow.
- Add a shelf for 3D-printed pieces. A Creeper infinity cube or a pocket tic-tac-toe you printed yourself gives the room something made, not bought.
- Keep the bed calm. Plain bedding lets the art be the colour. Blues and greys suit the cooler scenes.
- Add a travel wall. For gamers who also love travel, the landmark canvases make a gallery that looks good in a bedroom or a hallway.
- Make the desk the stage. A panoramic canvas above the monitor, such as a desert temple panorama, frames the setup.
- Leave empty wall. Space around the art makes it look chosen. Resist filling every gap.
- Let the room grow. Start with one canvas and add a second and third over time. Our collections are designed to sit together.
