Bonus Room Inspiration

Most rooms in a house already come with a designated purpose, leaving bonus rooms to be a perplexing space for most homeowners to figure out how to utilize effectively. Don’t let this space go to waste and become a place to dump items that you don’t know what to do with. Transform your bonus room into a space that your family will love to gather in. Check out some popular ideas you can use to create your own little bonus room oasis.

Extra Living Room

Bonus Room

Depending on the size of your family, one main living area may not be enough space to please everyone. Teenagers don’t always want to watch the same thing their parents, and sometimes the main floor is used as an entertaining space rather than a TV room. Avoid any fights over the TV by adding a secondary living space.

Home Office / Study

Home Office

Whether you work from home, or you are looking for a quiet spot for your children to finish their homework, transforming your bonus room into a dedicated office space will help the whole family have a space to focus when needed. Add some French doors to the space to help eliminate other noise in the house. To see what’s trending in home office design this year, click here.
