Now it's safe to say that I've had a bit of a gaming experience, all thanks to my younger brothers who have tried to do literally everything to transform their room into a gaming haven. From LED lights to fancy keyboards and other gizmos—I've seen them do the most for their gaming experience, to fulfil their dreams of becoming a streamer. Gaming has seen a boom in the recent years, and if you wish to turn your room into a super fun and convenient gaming room, here's how you can achieve it.

Ambient Lighting

I feel safe in saying that the majority of gaming room decor depends on the lighting. Ambient lighting is given the top spot and there are so many options to choose from. For hidden lighting that can be controlled with a remote, there is nothing better than good quality RGB LED strips, especially when it replaces normal bulbs for smart bulbs that can change colour through a mobile app. You can also consider adding other light elements that double up as decor like lightsaber-style of lighting or neon signs.

Gaming Monitors

The thing that holds the most importance, without which a gaming room is just a room, is the monitor. Many gamers prefer having more than one monitor, so depending on your budget and needs you could opt for multiple (usually people go for three) or a single monitor. It is also essential to pay attention to how it is placed. The preferred and recommended way is to hang it on the wall with an adjustable mount if you have one monitor or place on table neatly if you have multiple.

Since gaming is all about the online world, the way you display your tech is also a part of your gaming room design. There are plenty of ways you can store your gadgets in style, like a dedicated headphone stand for your desk, with lights of course, a gaming desk mat, a docking stand for laptops or tablets, and even wireless charging stations.

Having a good sound is essential to having a good gaming experience. Speakers for gaming room are displayed as gaming room decor so pick ones with not only good sound but also ones that look good, fit perfectly in their designated space and preferably have a lighting element in them.

While this isn't a gaming room interior design idea, it's an important feature in your gaming room, especially if you live with family or other people. Soundproofing lets you play in peace without disturbing anyone else. It's also relatively easy to do, you can find lots of soundproofing panels online if you don't want to go through a lot of trouble.

Ergonomic Chair

Once a game starts, hours turn into minutes, and so chances are you're going to spend way more time here that you think you will. This means investing in an ergonomic chair is a necessity for proper back support and comfortable gaming sessions. My brother tells me that Herman Miller gaming chairs are considered the best but are super expensive (ranging from INR 1,50,000 to 2,00,000 or more). A much more affordable option is from The Sleep Company, I've personally tried it and approve of it.

Wall Showcase For Figurines

Gaming also means that you feel passionately about the characters, and you'll probably end up collecting a few prized possessions over time if you haven't already. One of the easiest gaming room ideas is to install shelves to display these figurines. You can choose to add floating shelves to keep it minimal or go all out with proper showcases that have a spotlight to make your collectables shine.

Proper Storage System

Gaming room decor can often seem cluttered as there are many items, from different connectors, chargers and equipment to gaming CDs and remotes. It's essential to keep things in order and have a proper system. One way to incorporate this is through installing a wall shelf for all your games, this acts like decor and also makes it super accessible to reach for the games you like. Having designated drawers and spaces for smaller items will help keep other things in order.
