There’s a fine line between stupid and clever.
I thought this might be fun to post here. This was in our house back in Atwater Village, Los Angeles. After I got engaged and moved in with my wife I needed a studio office for my film/tv/gaming work. I got to take over the single-car garage in the back yard. It was an ideal size and I had free license to do whatever I wanted to it. I went with a speakeasy sort of vibe, and later put a few ferns and a bar globe in it. I had professionals upgrade the electricity and install a ductless A/C and heating unit, but the rest of the work I did myself. There was an adjacent laundry room with a bathroom that I made into the machine room, so no computer noise or excess heat. It was also important that the room could be easily converted back to a garage should we decide to move out, which we did, though we kept the room as is, our realtor said it was a good selling point. I took photos of the process, took about a week to complete.
