Safe at home doesn’t mean bored at home…
Over the last few weeks our community has spent time at home instead of going to movie theaters, entertainment venues, sporting events or public places. Soon enough, these restrictions will be lifted, but what will that really look like for our clients? Will they be as social as normal? Have we all gotten so used to staying home and spending time with family that this will become our new normal? For our clients we believe the latter will be true. Why go to a theater when you can turn a small room in your home into your own personal theater? Why go to the driving range or take golf lessons when you can transform a bay of your garage into a commercial grade virtual golf simulator? Why go on vacation when you have your own personal tropical paradise complete with an outdoor entertainment system in the backyard? Below we have a featured a few of our projects that turn unused spaces of a home into the most used and most enjoyed rooms.
Hit the Course, at Home
Garage Bay Turned Golf Simulator
One of our clients is an avid golfer and wanted to be able to practice more efficiently at home. Since he didn’t have any extra rooms in his home, we turned one bay of his garage into a commercial grade golf simulator. The project turned out amazing.
Two Unbelievable Rooms, One Small Space
Our client, an avid golfer, wanted to convert a standard exercise room into a quality multipurpose cinema room that doubled as a professional golfing simulation system. However, neither him, nor his wife, liked the look of the typical golf simulator. His vision was a room that could be used for both purposes but did not look industrial. He asked that his picture and sound be exceptional, yet unseen when not in use and he expected the acoustics in his room to be superior to any other theater he had been in.

Small Rooms Make Intimate Theaters
Small and Mighty
We have recently completed two theaters that started out as small, under appreciated rooms. The first project I will feature started as a 14' x 15' home office. We were able to get everything this client wanted into this room and even built a compartment on an exterior wall to house the projector so it's hidden. This theater is controlled by Crestron and is home to a 2.40 and 16.9 masking screen, Sony 995 projector, 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos setup, Origin Marque speakers, acoustic panels covering walls and ceilings and LED lighting around the ceiling trim, screen, and custom signs.
Above Garage Loft Redesigned
This next space started as an 11’ x 22’ loft above our client’s garage. The space presented a few challenges in addition to the narrow size but we were able to navigate through them and find solutions so that in the end our client had a finished product that was exactly what he had always dreamed of. Read about all of the challenges and what we did to navigate the project, here.
