Turn your garage into something crafty and magical

The easiest way to make a rough garage feel warm, bright and inviting is to organise the space with some great storage in light natural tones and add touches of bold colours and good lighting. All in all, here’s a lovely and (very) practical garage that feels like an art studio for kids and anyone young at heart, do you agree?

Making a mess without ruin the house

With white, sturdy stools and tables in just the right size for your child, we’ve created a vibrant and permissive space in the garage to help them get into flow. A place without limitations! Paint butterflies, cut paper trees and explore. Open shelves in calming natural wood serve as mini exhibitions.

Artful seating with extra storage underneath

Keeping various artwork or craft materials underneath the seat makes this stool an additional space for your child to hang out. Pink colour gives the multi-purpose bench a fun look that pops, and the cut-out handle makes it easy to move. Don’t like pink anymore? Just repaint it.

Make your garage look better and work harder

Whether it’s seasonal clothing and decorations, sports and gardening equipment or recycling, keep your stuff organised and free up space in your home. Use transparent and light boxes to keep your stuff clean, tidy and easy to find. Dark green shade on the robust shelves create a nature-inspired vibe.

Sprouting minds and parent’s creativity

A storage unit with foldable table double up as both hobby hub and parent’s work related desk. There’s plenty of secret storage for thing both big and small. For a playful look, mix the unfinished wood with a painted chair. Now, take a moment and re-imagine what your garage can do for you.

Infuse some purpose in every corner

Unusual-shaped spaces call for a more creative take on storage. This tent-like wardrobe is great for seasonal clothes, bags or things you want close at hand but not visible. Stackable bins in a neat design help you save space and allow waste sorting to be part of the home interior.

Scandinavian style, made by me

The untreated surfaces on the pine shelves leave space for a feeling of simplicity, and the colourful chairs added are in earthy hues for a Nordic natural expression. It’s a super practical garage but also warm and beautiful for children to hang out. An easy-to-move trolley is perfect for small things.
