If you have a spare room, it would be a shame to let it go to waste, so why not invest some of your time and money in creating an ideal space in the home to indulge your passion or interest? In this article, you can find some of the best ideas for a spare room for business or pleasure.    

Home Studio 

Home studios are the perfect retreat for someone with an interest in music and music production. Music production takes a lot of time and dedication, so you need a comfortable place to set up and work. A home studio is a convenient location with access to the home. 

An effective home studio should contain certain elements. These elements are a music desk with a computer, some monitor speakers, a rack with some musical instruments on it, including retro synthesizers, and quality Wall Soundproofing, which is important for sound regulation. 

Airbnb

Are you interested in earning some extra money from your spare room? This money can be used to fund an annual holiday, pay for expenses, or to reduce the mortgage payments on your property. Creating an Airbnb is very easy; all you need is a comfortable bed and profile picture.

Creating an Airbnb is an easy way to earn money from home, but it can also be used as a guest room for when your friends and family come to stay. Every home should have a spare room for this purpose, and it makes sense to invest a little more and hire it out to tourists and travellers. 

Home Gym 

The cost of living continues to rise, and gym memberships are likely to drop off the priority list for most people. Still, it’s important to stay fit and healthy; you don’t want to start putting weight back on and feeling slugging. So what is the answer? The short one is installing a home gym. 

A home gym is made up of machines, treadmills, and free weights, or it’s full of mats that are perfect for yoga and aerobics. Either way, you need to decide what kind you exercise you want to do in the home gym before kitting it out. Remember, a home gym will need ventilation.  

Games Room 

Games are not only entertaining, but they are also relaxing. Think of the times you played pool on your own and entered a blissful state of flow or found some joy in playing a simple arcade game from the 1970s that you can complete with your eyes closed. Games can be therapeutic. 

Whatever game you like to play, why not have a dedicated space to retreat to every now and again? Have a games room in your loft or basement with a pool table set up and an arcade machine. It’s a little den where you can relax, unwind, and re-energize before going back.  

Art Studio

If you are the artistic type, you might like to build an art studio in your home. Again, these take different forms depending on your particular interests. If you are a painter, you will need some natural light, so bear this in mind when choosing a space. Photographers need a darker room.
