Here are 8 garage conversion ideas to spark your creativity, reviving that underused space into a more functional yet highly beautiful part of your home. It doesn’t have to be just a dark place loitered with your infrequently used items anymore.
Understandably, what you can make out of your garage will depend on the amount of space and your original intention behind the conversion. But with these 8 design ideas, you may be able to consider some incredibly fascinating ideas out of that dull-looking garage.
Convert your garage into a fitness gym
Who doesn’t like to be in shape like the magazine front-page models? But unfortunately, many of us do not find the time due to our busy schedules. Having to go register at a gym house can be tiring, not to mention having to leave home after work (just when you should be resting) to get to the gym just to hit off some pounds.
All that hassle can become a thing of the past by bringing the gym right to your doorstep. So why not convert that rarely used garage of yours into your gym? You and your family can now carry out your fitness routine easily right in your home without having to waste time and energy or covering long distances and spending valuable cash registering at a gym club.
Convert your garage into a full-fledged guest-house
Are you having friends and relatives over every once in a while? Then surely you may need an extra room for them. So why not turn that garage you rarely use into a guesthouse? It doesn’t have to be very large; a single or double garage would make for just enough space for a bed, toilet, a TV stand, and a small storage unit.
Make a lounge out of it!
If you have something as large as a three-car garage, then that should be large enough space to create a relaxing space out of. This would require many additions like sofas, chairs, tables, TV, vases, and other furniture to allow you and your family some time-out within your home. You can even include a bar there. Relaxing with your family and friends in such a cozy atmosphere with a drink in hand can make for a wonderful lifetime experience.
Garage conversion for a working space
Get some alone time by converting your garage into your personal working space. You can convert it into a study, office, or art studio. The peace and quiet helps to foster your creativity and productivity. Just fit in anything that inspires you into that space.
Turn your garage into a family playground
Why not consider converting that garage into a fun-filled zone where your kids can unleash their energy and channel it into something beneficial? Kids can easily power up their talents if given the avenue from a tender age. How much you arrange and customize the space can do much to fuel their creativity and imagination. Install a well-arranged shelf and bring in colorful wallpapers, puzzle-pieces, kid stories, crayons and paint brushes, toys, gymnastic bars and swings, soccer balls, and what have you. Just get creative with it.
Turn your garage into a romantic getaway
If your living room or bedroom isn’t what you want it to be and there’s no way to rejuvenate it, you could create your wish from scratch in your garage. Get that spark of romance glowing between you and your partner with ambient rustic lighting, a king-size bed with white net and curtains, a fireplace and yes, a stereo. Bring Paris to your garage and consider putting it on Airbnb if its truly romantic.
Turn it into a game house
Need some fun time with the guys without having to leave home for the casino? Then recreate your own game house right in your garage. And it’s outrageously easy! There is already the space, and all you need do is bring in a pool table, game board, table tennis, and/or your video game. You can then go on to add a bar if there is space enough for it. Simply have your friends over for some game time out.
Go to the movies in your garage
Garage conversion can enable you to get your cinema right in your home. You don’t have to go out at night to see the movies with your family anymore. Simply convert your garage, get a large enough screen, couches, dark curtains for the effect, and bring in your family to see a movie.
