How would you like a fashionable car port that's in tune with the interior of your home? Don’t you think that your cars require a beautiful shelter, too?

We get it—it can be hard to be inspired to decorate what looks like a glorified shed. But we're also here to prove that garages CAN be beautiful, too. Check out the 10 most charming garages that you will ever see in a home. Use them as your motivation and get ready to remodel your old car shed!

Live and dine in your garage

Garages can be an extension to your living cum dining space. Have a look at this spectacular lounge area. Don’t you love the idea of entertaining your guests here? No, you do not need to fear the smells of oil and smoke. This car shade is safely screened off with glass partitions.

Join the dots

Thanks to its glowing white interior, this expansive garage looks delightful enough. But those colourful dots literally lift it to another world. They inject such liveliness in the ambience that is difficult to ignore. Indeed, an adorable garage for your precious collection of cars.

Sleek and dark car port

Ever intended to use a copious amount of dark grey and black in your home, but shirked away from the idea being fearful of creating an overly gloomy interior? Then this is your chance to create a garage with a very dark accent.

Concrete can have its charm too. And, when complemented with dark brown furniture, black area rug and sufficient amount of lighting, concrete too can create a glamorous interior.

Garage pop style

Take a cue from this colourful pop style garage and build one in your home that is steeped in such youthful vibe. See the skilful mixture of texture as well as vibrant shades of blue, orange and yellow. It also has a small dedicated corner to sit down, enjoy a show or two on the tv and, of course, the company of the cars.

Arthouse garage

Have you ever imagined combining your collection of fine arts and photographs with your collection of beautiful cars? See how this family house designed by KWK Promes managed to do exactly that. If you want to plan a house around your garage, then this is the way to go.

Drive in to the lounge

With this kind of floor planning you and your guests will be able to drive right in your lounge area. Well, not exactly… this garage is not that spacious to accommodate so many cars. But it is expansive enough to house your car and it does so with in perfect style. 

The wall décor and the interaction of blue, white, grey, wood and metallic tones make it look extra special yet very comfy.

Car parking in the loft

Floating in a white space

The large nearly exclusively white car post forms a part of its unusual volumetry. It is also very advantageously located on the bank of Pinheiros River.

At home with your car

This techno cool Tokyo house boasts of a built in car port. It has automobile elevators to bring the cars right up inside the living room. A dream parking solution for a family home, don’t you think so?

Graceful décor of a modern garage

The Wentworth Estate garage is one of the finest that you will ever come across. Its sprawling interior is capable of accommodating several cars. But it is not for this reason that this space looks so brilliant. A combination of warm white and neutral grey gives its interior a magical finish which is befitting a car port of a fine mansion.
