Underground parking next to the wine cellar plus a car lift and a TV disappearing in the bathroom mirror- Is there anything that is missing from this male den in Connecticut? Maybe a toilet with remote control? No, that's too much ...
Dear readers of Small Interiors, are you interested?
Rick Krug и его команда из TR Building & Remodeling построили этот гараж мечты как настоящее жилое пространство для автомобилей на заднем дворе дома.
One of the clients wanted to use the barn as a building, in which it is possible to keep both the motor-technics and the collection of wines. In this case, the building should be comfortable and warm, as well as the main house.
"Even the most practical functions are surrounded by luxury," says Rick Krug.
The author and his team worked with the client's main house project and wanted to continue the given style in this incredible structure.
Decorative finishing walls from recycled chestnut and pine and natural stone on the floor are durable and bring warmth to the interior of these fantastic 120 square meters.
The customers wanted a certain number of garage compartments, but their construction would exceed the maximum allowed by the municipal government of the city. Therefore, contractors changed the design, creating an underground parking for an additional car.
The hydraulic elevator of the industrial level safely drops one unit into the basement floor, allowing others to be placed at the top.
The cargo elevator leads down to an additional parking place, near which is located wine cellar.
The construction of the main level includes not only parking spaces, but also a charging port for an electric vehicle and a quiet working area.
Original staircase With stringers in the form of longitudinal cables from stainless steel leads upward. Oil-rubbed bronze and copper accessories create a sense of warmth. Their fragrance protects the rest of the space from the smell of exhaust fumes.
The upper level has a deck and a guest area for viewing cars with a TV room, a small bar and a snack bar. Open planning allows you to arrange watching football or night movies.
A custom-built farm sink made of soapstone with a Ferrari logo etched on it is located around the corner, which reminds visitors of the need to wash their hands of automotive grease.
The natural stone cover remains pleasant and warm thanks to the built-in heating system. All lighting and sound equipment in the building can be monitored and controlled via the iPad or iPhone.
Upstairs, the room for hygienic procedures is equipped with a retractable TV and an elite plumbing with remote control. Bathroom Finishing is made in the color of the tree in accordance with the rest of the interior of the block.
A vast open area connects the main house with the owner's garage-dwarf. Landscape design, masonry and similar types of decoration aesthetically connect both spaces.
The guest area and the open kitchen are comfortably located in the pergola. To the steel beams of the ceiling of the arbor are connected a fan and LED lighting.
The perfect sound system controls the space, and all these elements remain intact with the help of a retractable awning that blocks ultraviolet rays.
Stylish facade, trimmed with cedar board, contrasts with the bright white border of the garage-cave trim. The metal roof creates a traditional kind of apartment house.
