Modern Garage Design

Modern Garage Design

Space is very important especially if you want to make a more organized life. This is the reason why people would tend to use their garage in a more functional way. Using it for parking cars and for dirty workshop is already a thing of the past.

There are more ways on how your garage can keep up with your lifestyle. Here are some ways to achieve a modern garage design that would increase its functionality and make you a happier homeowner:

1.   Increase your garage storage

You might be already satisfied with the kind of storage that you have in your garage. Don’t be limited to this by just dumping everything in one cabinet. You can make things more organized by actually adding more spaces for your grouped stuff.

Yes, you have to group your stuff according to their material and use so that you can easily find them. This way, you can decrease the chances of clutter.

You can also use garage storage which is colorful or with a more homely design to make you feel comfortable whenever you see it.

2.   Upgrade your garage flooring

Because you are doing most of your projects in your garage, there is a need for durable flooring. You may have already heard using some resin material to make your flooring free from abrasions and damages from chemical reactions.

But don’t settle for this. You can get durable flooring which is at the same time stylish. This would encourage you to add more functions to your modern garage.

3.   Proper lighting

Lighting plays a very important role in making the ambiance of a room better. Instead of using a lot of bright fluorescent lamps, you might also try to use those dim ones. You can have the bright and dim ones at the same time but make sure they have different switches so you can use them individually depending on your purpose.

4.   Add some comfortable chairs

You would normally find only workshop chairs in garages. This makes the function of your garage more limited since you do not have anything comfortable to sit on if you want to read some papers or books.

Some homeowners would even add a couch in their modern garage to make it accommodate more people inside in case they want to hold some group gatherings there.

This would also serve you best if you want to open a garage sale since you can use it every time you want to take a break.
