I'm beginning to think about buying some decent seating for my theater. I'm not sure if I want a sofa/couch or individual seats or ????? I do want to be able to recline with at least some of the seating (an ottoman could be OK) and I would want someplace to rest drinks/snacks ... so a table or fold down armrest is an option. I'm pretty open on my options and I'd like something at least a little unconventional - either in the seat type or placement. I can create a low riser (maybe 4" max) to place a second row and allow for more design options.

I've included some screenshots of the computer mockup of my theater. There is also a pool table and some arcade games on the right and left sides of the room so the entire floorplan isn't open. I'd like to keep the furniture in front of the recess within a square about 15' wide and 15' deep. The recess for the screen is 3' deep so the true depth is about 18' front to back.

So, maybe that's too much detail but I'm hoping I can get suggestions. A couch in front and row of theater seats on a riser in back? Two loveseats angled like a 'V' with a table in the middle and an arc of seats on a riser behind those? I'm open to anything but would like to keep within a budget of less than 5K.

Thanks in advance!!
