Garage project

Been working in the double garage to get it up to my standards for the last 3 years or so. So have done the ceiling in white tiles with plenty of lights in there and just finished the major job of doing all the walls in white melamine 22 mm boards.

Looking quite good I must say, so ready for the furniture now.

This is what I am going to put at the end of the garage:

Just need to tile the floor as well and all is done finally.

Long project to get the man cave done, and Mrs PVR has no understanding of "what is wrong with the breeze blocks"  :))

Where's the projector and screen going then?  No decent 'man cave' is without them......and you can sit in the car for your own 'drive in movies'........of course you'll need a proper surround system (7.1 as a minimum).......8)

I suspect Mrs pvr may not understand that need either...... :(

I am a little confused. Are you converting your garage to a room or you are expanding your garage and putting a great stylish type of furniture in it for storage in it?

Both........I think.

The cars will be the 'other' furniture......

Garage had no ceiling, just straight roof joists and the walls were breeze blocks.

I put in a loft in the garage, then I added a suspended ceiling underneath it, then I put in a structure to have white walls in there via the melamine boards and in the garage I am putting that in front of the cars to store all my car stuff in. Cleaning products, jacks, buckets, waxes, vacuum cleaner, tools, spare parts and so on.

Just a project of mine - taken a few hundred of my man hours to get it this far but it is a project of love :)

From the piccies you had at the meet, it'll be a pukka job.

At this rate all you'll need is a BMW Dealership sign on the gate....... :ok:
