Back during Covid, I decided I would fulfill a life long goal of mine and build a 16’x28’ garage in my backyard. For a fairly new DIYer, I think it came out great.
However, now with a lot more experience under my belt, I would like to update and do some renovations. I will be building a whole new impact screen/flooring on the golf side. But, I am really struggling to figure out what to do with the lounge area side. The back 4’ as you can see is elevated because I wanted to do a “balcony” seating area and it’s been great, but I’m leaning towards leveling that off when I do renovations to create more lounge space.
I’ve looked at thousands of pictures of home simulators and I just can’t seem to find a setup that I really love. I’m considering spending some money on a gold simulator designer, but I wanted to ask the good people of this subreddit first!
Any and all advice/inspiration is appreciated!
Couple things I’ve been thinking about and to keep in mind:
• I host a few buddies over every once in a while to golf/watch a UFC fight. It’s great as we watch the prelims on the tv and then put the main event on the projector • Most of the time, I am just out there by myself or with my daughter hitting some balls and playing courses. I love working on my swing a lot.
• I am a big nerd when it comes to tech. I would love to get a “control panel” that controls as much of the room as possible. (TV’s/music/projector, etc.)
• I am thinking about installing 2 tvs that have remote controlled ceiling mounts. That I can lower them when I want.
• I would love to hide the computer somewhere and put a touch screen on the golf side so I don’t have to worry about the mouse and keyboard.
