We are happy to announce that a client entry Workflow T2-T5 had considerable involvement in made it out of hundreds of entries into the Top 10 as a Home Leisure Judges ‘Games Room of the Year 2021’ Contender!
What the Home Leisure seasoned judges made of it…
It’s something from a different world! This Alien-inspired GAMES room has made it through to the final stages of Home Leisure – Games Room of the Year (UK) 2021. The love of the 1979 classic cult favourite has been brought alive alongside an incredible range of games, making this space a great finalist for this year’s competition.
When you first enter the Alien territory you will see a sleek black pool table, but not only used to shoot some pool, the table also converts to a full-size ping pong table, and a dining top which is ideal for playing the numerous Alien themed board games. A poster on the wall of the Xenomorph Alien playing pool, showing the newfound discovery that even the Alien Warrior has a playful side!
Your eyes will instantly be drawn to the colossal Alien Isolation Arcade machine with Bespoke Fan inspired personal artwork designs. This machine will make any arcade lover’s jaw drop, but the Alien-theming just brings this whole room into another dimension
If the arcade machine isn’t enough for you, then don’t fear, the Room also boosts an incredible customised Alien pinball machine in mint condition, complete with the iconic facehugger & the alien warrior with working inner jaw ready to snatch the pinball!
Now, any Alien fantasist’s room would not be complete without a serious movie zone to rewatch the complete Alien collection over and over. The owners have created the perfect setup with super comfy black leather recliners facing the big screen for hours of Alien marathons. Lastly, we can’t forget about the pristine display cabinet filled with Alien memorabilia, and all things out of this world.
We asked the owner what is his favourite part of the games room, and we completely agree with the answer: “Easily the Alien Movie Theme we have going on, as big fans of the franchise we knew this is what we wanted from the start to give the GAMES room a unique spin. We have posters, merchandise, a customised Alien Pinball machine with added toys and even our own artwork designed Alien Isolation Arcade machine to create the atmosphere we wanted.”
A room this immense has taken a lot of work and attention to detail to create. “The room has been slowly evolving from October 2016 with us finding new ways to incorporate the theme over time and saving the funds to do so. The process of designing a one-of-a-kind arcade machine with bespoke artwork was a particularly time-consuming labour of love.” Well, we have got to say the labour of love has really paid off, making this room truly awe-inspiring!
We wish the owners and their Alien shrine good luck in the final stages of the Games Room of the Year competition 2021.
