8 Ways to Make Use of Your Home’s Flex Space

A flex room is essentially an area of your home that can be used for a variety of things. The purpose of a flex room is to provide a space that can be flexible, and evolve with the ever-changing needs of the homeowner. The possibilities for what you use your flex space for are endless, so we wanted to provide ten fun ways that you can make the most out of your home's space. 

1. Multipurpose Room

By adding a few functional pieces to your home's flex space, you can create a multi-purpose room that easily transitions from a playroom, to a guest room, to an office depending on your needs!

2. Home Office

Whether you’re working from home, or you’re just looking for a place to pay the bills, a home office space certainly has its benefits.


Having a designated office space in your home, especially with a door, can provide some additional privacy when you’re trying to focus on a project or hold an important call.

3. Nursery

Flex spaces work perfectly for nurseries, and can easily transition into a toddler’s room in no time! With the addition of a crib, a comfy chair, and a multi-functioning changing table, you can maximize your space for your family.

4. Playroom

Creating a designated space for kid’s toys and games can help keep your home from getting overly cluttered, especially during play time. Adding a toy chest or built in shelving can provide extra storage. Another option to consider is having the door installed for this room so that you can close the door when you have guests over.

5. Additional Living Room

Turning that extra space in your home into a second living room can give you the option of having both a formal living room for guests, and an informal space for family time.

6. Additional Bedroom

Having an extra bedroom in the house is always an excellent idea – whether you’re entertaining out of state guests, or having grandkids stay for the night, having an extra guest bedroom in the house is always beneficial.

7. Hobby/Craft Room

Do you have a fun hobby that you really enjoy? Why not turn your flex room into a designated space where you can pursue your passions! Whether you’re an artist, a fitness enthusiast, or an antique collector, having a flex space in your home allows you to dedicate a special area for you to show off your hobbies!

8. Home Movie Theater or Entertainment Room

Transform your flex room into a space dedicated to having fun! By having a separate space for entertainment, you won’t have to worry about disturbing the rest of the family when you want to watch an action movie late at night. You can also invite friends over and bring on the snacks for a fun movie night get together!
