I love this topic! I have my pole in my bedroom right now. I would love to have a pole room that was bright pink with lots of purple curtains/accents. I would fill it with mirrors, plants and pretty white twinkly lights. 🙂
one day it will happen…one day….

lol but really whatever works for you. What types of styles, colour themes work best for you?
-
I think I have so many ideas I would like the opinion of someone who actually poles.What would you do?Love the idea Krissy!
-
i definetly think mirrors are a good idea as they always help in seeing what you are doing….I think another great idea is building in a place for mounting a camera for recording. I always end up balancing mine on stuff to get the right angle. It would be a great idea to incoporate something that like into the design.

What about color?I have heard color affects performance?
-
Thank for the idea of the mirrors.Any other ideas?
-
I don't think color matters as much as the lighting. I prefer a soft light (so I don't see my cellulite in the mirrors haha). In my pole room I have a few small funky glass lamps on the floor and sometimes I turn on my Mipole. I also have cute floor cushions handy, a small table for my laptop. And you know how ballerinas mount their old pointe shoes on the wall? Well, I've mounted my stilleto boots and clear heels. I can't dance in them, but they sure do look pretty in my pole room! 🙂

Def have mirrors in mine, I also want it large enough where I could do creative videos with my pole stuff. Very music video like. I love doing those. Different mounts for camera angles since I like to play with those as well. A small place where I could do my sewing. And lights on the floor I can adjust.

Oooh hardwood floors! Dont' want any carpet for obvious reasons! Those darn carpet burns! Mirrors mirrors mirrors! And like Krissy said, a place for your camera and mount. Gummy also mentioned a good point, a small table for your laptop and/or ipod dock.

Drapey silky curtains in whatever color theme you go with. I like the purple thing, but I think I'd take it a bit more burgundy and mix with apricots and golds. I'm just not much of a bubblegummy type. Black lights are always cool. Can we put mirrors in the floor with string lights running out like a spider web from the base of your pole? You could get an LED color pattern, or stick with a solid, or do blinking, racing, then steady pattern of a solid color. If you plan to be showing off for SO/Guests/Visitors, make sure they have somewhere comfy and cool to sit. Expensive, I know, but those high heel lounges are awesome. And you need a place to stash your wipe/alcohol/pole whatevers/other exercise equipment you keep in pole room like yoga mat etc. And maybe a coat rack or swivel for shoes and clothes. http://www.lovesac.com/sacs/pillowsac.html Yes, definitely hardwood or vinyl/laminate floors. You can get nice hardwood looking laminates that are replaceable when your heels scratch them up. Uh… Disco ball? Lava lamp? What kinduh budget do we have here cuz I could go super pimp with this lol.

I have my own pole room! I had so much fun putting this area together. Initially, I used it as an at home studio/home school where I taught private lessons. Since returning to college for a second degree, I've decided to teach from my local studio only and keeping my home studio for personal use. My studio:
Walls: I used a light purple/lilac color. I love the color purple and this color looks great in this room. It actually made the room look bigger.
Mirrors: I have one wall that is a full length mirror. (This may have something to do with that bigger room concept as well.)
Floor: My husband and I built a custom hardwood floor dance space which is over my carpet area. I didn't want to tear up the carpet in the room so I just built a subfloor over it.
Lighting: I have a hot pink light that I can use when I'm wanting to dance during the evenings in a dimly lit atmosphere. I also have a Mipole pole light and regular room lighting that also allows me to dim.
Equipment: I have 2 poles currently up- a 50mm original xpole and a 45mm xpert- both chrome. I also have a 50mm Lil' Mynx black powder coated pole in the closet. And my latest addition is an aerial silks rigging which I mostly use for aerial yoga. The aerial rigging is easy to remove so I can put my pole in place. I also have hoops for hooping, mats, and custom made foam rollers.
(I've attached a pic to my pole room in my pics on my profile: https://www.studioveena.com/photos/next/4f86fd80-a684-4be9-852d-2b170ac37250 )

I have my own pole space too. You can see it in my videos. Two poles, but thinking I may want to get a 40 mm X also. I got a huge mirror for $40 and as kobajo did, put some wood right over the carpet. I have a video on how we made the floor and it was super cheap. I completed my pole space for under $200.00 (minus the poles)

I love the ideas.I am going to try to go all out with this.On the plus side my mom can save money on almost everything,she can give me tips or be my buying agent.Too bad she does not want to pole…..Anymore ideas?I am really getting a kick out of this! 🙂

I have a board on pinterest dedicated to my studio design ideas: http://pinterest.com/annieberrypie/studio-design-ideas/
It's obvious I favor the vintage glam theme, haha. Have fun creating your pole space! I would love to have one room dedicated to pole.
