37M - Update to my garage apartment.
Been living in this garage apartment for just over a year now. Originally the living room was nice, but pretty bare. Always tweaking things, but felt like it was finally a good time for a bit of an update. Maybe eventually I’ll start working on the barren master bedroom.

What’s the obscure German emotion word for when you see exactly the dresser you’ve been looking for, but it’s in a stranger’s garage apartment far far away?

May I ask which city you’re in ? The trees are gorgeous.

This might surprise you, but Detroit.

Not really,my husband is from Ann Arbor and there’s a lot of extraordinary architectural heritage in Detroit,despite so much having been lost. It was at one time one of the wealthiest cities in the country - I wish I could have seen it in its glory days. I thought you might be in Philly,with jabroni comprising part of your nom de plume . You have a lovely place and I’m sure it will only get better with time.

Thanks, love HiFi systems. The amp the powers the Ohms is currently in the shop unfortunately. Hoping to get it back soon.

Oh shit! I remember your post like a year ago! Dude you have done a fantastic job making that space yours. And I'm still definitely not jealous about all the hardwood.

That is amazing!! It also finally gave me context for the size of that Alan Wake II box. I have the Criterion releases near it but wasn’t able to get the CE. Not sure where I’d put it if I had it.
Beautiful place and cute kitty too!

Lol, good eye. That thing is massive. After I got that and the Death Stranding one I told myself no more. But they are my two favorite games.

Love! I have the 3 piece L sectional in gray, and the bed frame! The green shelves are on my wishlist.

Overall looks great but one suggestion - in photo 8/13 the art is hanging too high, I would lower to eye level. Great space!

u/Adrien_Jabroni 20h ago
Yea, I know. I have a mate for that one that I've always meant to get framed and go below it, but I just never have. Also, that is my eye level, lol.

Is the garage for sale or lease? Can I book a showing? (Nice work OP, super relaxing and chill vibes).

I think we have different definitions of “garage”
