5 Innovative Ways to Utilize Your Spare Apartment Room

by Dynamix Group Writer

Let us say that the notion of a spare room is real in your case. We begin with congratulating you! While most just think of making more space in the house, you’re the lucky one if you find yourself standing in front of an empty room in your apartment in Mumbai thinking of how to utilize it.

This is where you search the corners of your mind for those fantasies and set towards realizing them. Make a little haven for yourself or create a hobby room – here are some innovative ways to utilize the spare room.

1. Workout Space

If you excuse yourself every time you feel like getting back into shape, here is your chance to make a gym in the spare room. It is a great alternative to buying a membership you will hardly use and the direction to the park or jogger’s track you have already forgotten. Install a couple of full length mirrors, get the basic machines, a few weights and of course, some motivation. You could also practice yoga or even dance in this room.

2. Good office

A little room for work in the house is never a bad idea lest you decide to spend a few hours on the weekend researching or working from home. Your family can use the room for other official work as well. Depending on how you set it up, it could be used as a guest room simply by installing a single bed for days when more than a few relatives visit unannounced.

3. Art studio

The artist in you is lurking and there cannot be a better time to let him/her out. Turn the room into an artsy place to pursue your hobby. It could be whatever you please: painting room, craft room, pottery room, clay room or even all of them together. Your children (if you have any) will find great joy in utilizing this space as well. The important thing is that you won’t be defacing any other part of your home while bringing out the colors or patterns.

4. Room for the Bookworm

Nothing matches the tranquility of reading a book with no one or nothing disturbing you. If you’re a bookworm (including others in your family as well), it’s time to make a mini library. First off, it looks amazing and, secondly, you have that space that will foster your reading. Install some comfy furniture like armchairs and sofas and overhead lighting to create a prefect setup for your reading.

5. Room of rock

Well, it doesn’t necessarily have to be rock; it could be pop, country, classical, jazz, or just about anything that pleases your ear. Nobody will appreciate you playing the drums in your room. Look up some DIY tips to soundproof the room. Install the instruments on the wall and get some chic rugs from the floor. Now, no one shall disturb you while you write your first concerto, or a more realistic 2-minute song.

You can also turn it into a home theatre if that’s what tickles your fancy. The best option would be to consider every member’s wishes and instead of going for a single option, turn it into multi-purpose hobby/recreational space in your apartment in Goregaon or Mumbai. After all, everyone needs some time off from the mundane activities of daily life.
