Things to include

There are some things we believe that are a must for a billiard room in NYC. Billiard rooms are always dimmed and kind of dark. This is why we suggest painting the walls dark grey, deep green, or even black. Include a couple of soft armchairs that match the interior as well. They will serve great when your friends come over.

A coffee table is a must-have as well. A glass one really goes well with the billiard table. Make sure that the light is dimmed. You can put a small lamp in a corner of the room instead of using a ceiling light. Include some art.
