Skwrl63 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 My retro nook I designed in my garage last fall. It was a fun build and I was able to do this project for about $350. I shared this photo on Reddit and Facebook in the last 7 months or so. Chances are most of you have already seen this. I'm really just new to using the AtariAge website and I'm just trying to figure stuff out. This is my first post....lol 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattyboombatty Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 This is unbelievably cool! I say you sure did capture the look-and-feel of the late 1970s living room! I had the fake wood siding in my first two houses in central California. The classic TV cart with room for a console or cable box on bottom is true. The woody parquet looking table and the retro armchair with the all-encompassing green hue; exactly. The marbled carpet with smeary brown and tan combinations to hide poo poo, barf, coffee, and Coke stains… everyone had it. You got it right!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that meant the carpet always look dirty, or always looked clean? The chair my father actually garbage picked in 1983. Then he paid almost $400 in 1983 to get the chair reupholstered. So I guess that means this is most likely a early 70s chair with early 80s upholstery...lol Anyways, thanks for the kind words. It really was a fun build Edited May 20, 2020 by Skwrl63 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I would love playing Atari there. Just noticed the Gameline master module and the book of instructions beneath it. Super cool! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
