Ever dreamt of having a designated entertainment hub in your home? Maybe you desire a game room for your family or you want to add a workout space in your house. Is inadequate square footage holding you back? Don’t despair, you can create that entertainment hub or a home gym with the space at hand. Use unused spaces in your home to add more functional rooms without altering the structure or adding additional square feet to your house. Transform your house using the following ideas.
From a Chilly Basement Into a Light-Drenched Workout Space
Perhaps you need a home gym to stick to a fitness routine. What’s holding you from enjoying the satisfaction that comes with owning a home gym? Is space an issue? Home gyms are not reserved for the rich alone. All you need is an empty space to create a breath-taking home gym for you and your loved one. You can rework your garage into a classy gym with the right planning and resources. Start by clearing and cleaning the garage. You will need to renovate the space, add more lighting, switch up the wall color to brighter colors, and replace the garage flooring with suitable gym flooring to ease and support your workout. When shopping for gym flooring, consider getting rubber flooring for the home gym. The rubber flooring adequately supports any gym equipment. Rubber flooring is durable and a good shock absorbent.
Switch Up that Blah Attic Into a Snuggy Bedroom
If you need an extra bedroom, look up towards your attic. It may look creepy, dark, and restricting at the moment. Don’t work. You can unleash the coziness out of your attic, by adding lighting, using warm colors on the walls, and letting in more natural lights. If your attic comes with a tall ceiling use pendant lamps. For a low ceiling attic, use spotlights. You can use floor lamps to enhance the lighting in the room. Stick to one or two patterns, colors, and textures to make the bedroom less crowded. Minimize and use sleek furniture. If the attic has beams, consider refinishing them.
Step Up Your family’s Entertainment by Getting Them an Entertainment Hub
Looking to ramp up your home’s entertainment? Bring the cinema to your home by leveling up the basement and turning it into a theater room. With the right skills and a bit of ingenuity, you can jack up the basement and set up a luxurious cinema room. If your basement has no windows, it would be a perfect room for an intimate and cozy theater. If there is a window, use blinds to reduce outside light. Think of adding soft lighting to give out an inviting atmosphere.
Create an Ultimate Family Room
Consider redesigning the garage into an ultimate family room if you need more space to entertain your guests or hold conversations with your family. Clear up the garage, add a window, warm up the garage with heating vents, insulate the walls, add lighting, brighten up the walls, and consider turning the garage door into a wall. Replace the concrete floor with laminated or hardwood floors. Add mats and rugs to make the space more inviting.
Use The Extra Room and Set up a relaxation suite
If you hardly have guests in your home, turn the guest room into a relaxation room. You need a sanctuary to turn to after a stressful workday. Create a sensory environment by using calming colors for this room, incorporating softer textures and lighting, and adding scented candles. Group the furniture to build on the warmth and create an inviting atmosphere.
Position a Homework Station Under the Stair
Use the space below the stairs to set up a breathtaking homework station. You need a little creativity to create a space that sparks productiveness and makes your kids or anyone using the space focus on their task. Ensure the space provide a semi-private space to focus
Convert the Landing Into a Home Office
Add more functionality to your staircase landing by turning the space into an office. Use slim office furniture and storage units to avoid filling the narrow space. You can mount open shelves and racks on the walls to store extra supplies. Stick to whites to create an airy feeling. Find creative ways to make the landing and the staircase feel cohesive.
Final Thoughts
There is a high likelihood you’re not utilizing all the spaces in your home. Even a tiny house has lots of unused spaces. With a little patience and effort, you can turn any unutilized space in your home into a functional space.
