A popular trend in garage conversions is man caves. Everyone values their space and sometimes you just want a space special to you. This can take the form of a craft room, bedroom, office, and man/women caves! By using a garage conversion this space has gone from the days of just some metal chairs and a folding table in open space.  With companies devoted to garage conversions, you can know to achieve the man cave of your dreams!

What Will I Need To Consider To Convert Your Garage Into A Man Cave?

When doing the conversion you will need to consider so things in completing your man cave. One thing to consider is the walls. A garage is made to store a car so the walls are not made as typical walls in a home or room. To make the walls like traditional walls they will have to go through the same process as home walls. Once the walls have been treated you may want to consider painting them to make the cave feel more like a home and less like it was a garage. As it is your own space you can paint it the way represents you best. Or maybe you want to add more to your conversion you could go crazy by adding things like wood paneling, stone textures, or overlay. Another simple thing you could add in during the garage conversion is shelving. You may have things you want to display like pictures, trophies, or just random knick-knacks. Built-in shelving is a great way to display and looks cleaner with the design.

What Can I Add To The Room/Garage?

The design of your man cave is entirely up to you, that's the best part! This conversion is one where the style of the room is what you want. When you begin to think about extras you should think of seating and what you would need to feel comfortable. Do you want a giant sofa or lots of recliners? Should you have comfy clothes so you are warm when you take a nap or do you prefer the feel of leather? The next two items are ones that are often seen in a man cave and can be built in during the garage conversion. The first one is your entertainment system. Do want to build in a media shelf to house your games, consoles, remotes and such? Will your tv be mounted? Building in the media shelf will give the wall it's on a good focal point and help you to house everything you will be putting in your room. The second and often considered the most important is a bar. Will your man cave feature a bar? If so, do you plan on building it in? A built-in corner bar is a great way to add it in and save space. It is also functional and often a highlight of the room.
