Spare Room Renovation

Perhaps your children are grown or away at college and you’ve now found yourself with a lot of extra space around the house. Or maybe you have a spare room and want to find a creative way to make it fit your lifestyle. We’ve done some brainstorming to help jump start your spare room renovation!

Home Office

Featured floor: Winchester LLP97

Whether you do some work from home or need a spot to file your mail and bills, a home office is one way to add function to a spare room and remove clutter from other rooms. Tiny bedrooms typically have enough space for at least one desk and some shelving or file cabinets. Larger bedrooms could house multiple desks, or make it a dual home office and share the space with one of our other ideas.

Another way to make use of a spare room is to transform it into a place for health and wellness by turning it into a home gym or yoga studio. Our Karndean LooseLay or LooseLay Longboard floors are an excellent addition to a space like this because it is our most ergonomic floor. Stay tuned, we’ll be writing more about creating a home gym in a future post!

Laundry Room

Your days of lugging baskets of dirty laundry down flights of stairs just may be over. If your current plumbing allows, consider creating a laundry room in an upper level of your home.

Home Lounge

Featured floor: Hudson LLP99

If your spare room is your basement, consider making it a space for entertaining! You can make it a place for family movie nights, a bar, a game room, or all three. See our Ultimate Home Lounge blog for more inspiration.

 

Wardrobe Room

Featured floor: Atra WP317

Imagine having a room entirely for your clothes, shoes and accessories. Make those dreams come true by turning an empty room into a wardrobe or dressing room by re-designing it like a walk-in closet. Even if it’s not directly next to your master bedroom, if your closet space is less than desirable, a wardrobe room is an ideal option.
