Just got the call that my African animals are at the Taxidermist. I should have them back in 15-17 months, but within a few weeks they will want to know how I want them mounted. We are finishing a gun/trophy room in our basement, complete with fireplace, guns displayed on each side, and shelving for books. We picked a deeper fireplace than originally designed, so we are going to have to get a little creative to make everything work since it sticks out about 6in more than the original plans called for. If anyone has something similar, let’s see them. I have a pretty good idea what we want to do, but I’d love to have as many ideas as possible.

We designed our basement with an open floorplan.

2460 square feet, 2 guests room, 1 bathroom, bar, small utility room. Went with 10 foot ceilings for taxidermy and so it didn't feel like a basement.

Think about where your heads are going to go for right or left turns, pedestals, wall pedestals, Europeans, rugs, etc.

I’m not much of a taxidermy guy…but have a few mounts. Mainly of my overseas stuff. Not in a basement though, let alone with a fireplace so I am not of much help to the main question.

I would suggest tall ceilings though as critters with tall antlers look goofy mounted with the brisket not far off the floor. I have a partially open/vaulted upstairs which helps with the critters that I do have mounted.
