Recently a television advert promoted the idea of using your garage as a home cinema or maybe your very own pitch side seat for the world cup; albeit through a high definition television screen with surround sound system, comfy lazy boy and beer fridge. The question that popped into my head when I saw this advert was, ‘But where would you put the car?’
Okay I know that most garages these days do not actually house a car and are instead used as the owner’s very own dumping ground full of boxed debit collected and stored during a lifetime of hording. But, what if you could designate a place, a sanctuary you could say, that fulfilled the requirements of our growing stay at home culture as our wallets are tightened and our pound stretched?
I have always wanted a home cinema, I mean a real cinematic environment akin to the local multiplex, but without the high ticket prices -anyone seen a 3-D film recently? – the obnoxious younger generation and their inconsiderate behaviour and all the other annoying points that make cinema going an irritation and not the delightful experience that I recall from my childhood.
So how can we accomplish this? How can we bring the luxury back to our lives? How can we build this dream of going out without leaving the home, to visit that place and it’s comfortable surroundings that give us pleasure through the sporting world or cinematic arts?
All we need is space and an appropriate building to house our little dream. A log cabin would be amazing, but a larger purpose built shed would do just as well. The right size would have to be purchased, but a 10’ x 8’ building would do the job well. A bigger building would allow for additional uses and a larger range of faux leather furniture to recline in your very own brand new, home entertainment centre.
Decorate the building right, put up some blackout blinds, run some power, hang that wide screen HD LCD Television, place the surround sound speakers in their optimum position, line up your comfy chair and plug in the beer fridge for your foray in to self indulgence as you sip your own choice of proverbial poison and flick on the latest block buster from Hollywood or watch your national football team carve their way in to the sporting history books.
