Call: (317) 350-6169 Curating the Ultimate Upcycled Man Cave Posted by Paul Ellsworth on June 21, 2021 at 3:30 PM June is Men’s Health month, and what better way to keep your sanity than enjoying your Man Cave? One of the most popular places men create is the man cave. A man cave can be an oìce, a den, a garage or any other space from a stylish basement bar or lounge to a gamer's paradise. According to thenest.com, "the average cost of a man cave is somewhere in the $5,000 to $10,000 range." Research has shown there may be a scientiêc link to mental well-being and allowing yourself to enjoy a designated space. A recent study shows, “space is very important for regulating emotions," says Sam Gosling, a psychology professor and author. The study also shows space as a powerful mechanism for evoking our emotions and positively impacting emotional well-being. “It’s incredibly important to be in one’s own space and resonate with who one is," Gosling says. Explore a few ways below to complete your man cave with pre-owned collectibles, gadgets and gear. Curating the Ultimate Upcycled Man Cave Cars What garage themed man cave is complete without a car? Whether you’re in the market for a êxer-upper project or collecting classic cars, there are tons of great ênds available on online auctions. Tools Great tools are a necessity in or out of a man cave. For a tool shed or tool themed garage they are especially important and the backbone of creating that space. Tools can certainly become expensive so here are a few things to look for at estate sales and online auctions to save your budget. Hand Tools - Pay attention to the way the tools look. In a recent dealnews.com article, Contributing Writer Sean Flynn suggests “If it looks good, it probably is good… Check the tool's working surfaces: Surfaces that are supposed to be smooth should actually be smooth, and parts that are supposed to move should do so freely, evenly, and precisely. If it feels wrong, it probably is wrong.” Power Tools - It’s best to verify that the power tools are in good working order before making the purchase at an estate sale or online auction. Look out for signs of wear and tear on cords and plugs. Steel Hand Tools - Look for big brands known for their utility when shopping for pre-owned hand tools. Larger brands often have long-lasting or lifetime warranties that can be transferred to new owners. Outdoor Power Equipment - Items like snow blowers, mowers, etc. are best found like new. Research the features of the equipment you want to purchase and test it or verify those features are still fully functioning. Televisions If you are looking to purchase a pre-owned TV, look for items that are open box yet still relatively new. Whenever possible, check to be sure every part of the television is in great working condition or still has time left on the warranty. Furniture When purchasing used furniture for your man cave look for items free of water damage, bug infestation, pet stains, odors, or damage. Consider seeking out furniture made of metal, leather or solid wood and remember to go for comfort or an attainable project starter. Sports Memorabilia and Equipment For the ultimate sports fan, a sports-themed man cave can really come to life with the right memorabilia and equipment. Online Auctions are great places to ênd pieces that capture your favorite sports moments and can work well for decorating the man cave. Decluttering Before You Overhaul Your Space If you’ve noticed your space doesn’t provide the peace or serenity it used to, it may be time to declutter your man cave. Recent research shows that clutter can aéect your brain’s ability to concentrate and process information as well as have a strong eéect on mood and self-esteem. Decluttering can help restore how your space is enjoyed — be it cave, bar, media room, pool hall, garage, woodshop, etc. Here’s a few tips to get you started: 1. Get rid of broken appliances. Today.com writes, “Find an appliance recycling center at earth911.com or if that doesn’t exist in your area, contact your local trash service to see how to schedule a pickup for big appliances.” 2. Remove or repurpose old sports equipment. Sports equipment can be repurposed to create framed art êtting for your space or upcycled as a sentimental gift. 3. Upcycle or discard broken and unused tools. See if friends could use your unused tools. If you have 4 screwdriver sets, surely a friend could appreciate one of them. 4. Discard or upcycle abandoned projects. Not in love with the rustic wood coéee table you were creating? Consider using parts or pieces of the project in a new project or ênding a friend or loved one who could use a portion of it. 5. Remove or recycle outdated electronics. Nostalgia can only go so far. If you are overrun with technology that precedes this decade consider discarding, recycling, or upcycling a few items. Before you do that, a few of those items may be estate sale or online auction worthy and in some cases worth thousands. See a list of surprisingly valuable 80s items here. 6. Upcycle, recycle or discard excess supplies. Be sure excess project supplies ênd a new home or purpose with someone you know or as a donation.

    Behold the Ultimate Man Cave (With Room for 16 Vintage Cars) by DENNIS RODKIN December 29, 2016

    Behold the ultimate man cave (with room for 16 vintage cars) By DENNIS RODKIN December 29, 2016 Photo by Manuel Martinez Stephane Rambaud in his party lounge and garage for his collection of European cars. When Stephane Rambaud handed over the keys of Phoenix International Freight Services, a Schiller Park logistics firm he helped build, he took on a new project, collecting and restoring European cars. That was early 2015, and less than two years later, he's up to 15. There's room for just one more in the 16-car garage and combination office/party lounge that Rambaud built inside a century-old brick warehouse in the white-hot Fulton Market neighborhood. It's a sleek space, 5,600 square feet, with a wall of windows to divide the garage from an elegantly appointed bar, lounge and meeting space. The garage, really more of a showroom, is where Rambaud's finished cars stand on a polished concrete floor with LEDs overhead to highlight the gleam of their paint, the sparkle of their chrome and the sensuous curves of their sculpted hoods. “I wasn't going to have a warehouse where you pile up your cars, and your friends can't see them,” Rambaud, 52, says. He's spent about $2 million buying and restoring the beauties, and says he's not doing it to resell them but “to create a fun collection and share it with people.” Share by invitation, that is. It's a private lounge, with no signs out front and frosted-glass windows to block peepers.

    Ornament and European Modernism: from Art Practice to Art History

    Ornament and European Modernism: from art practice to art history Review of: Ornament and European Modernism. From Art Practice to Art History, by Loretta Vandi (ed.), New York and London: Routledge, 2018, 198 pp., 38 colour & b/w illus. £110,00, ISBN: 978-1-138-74340-3 Ariane Varela Braga After a rejection that lasted almost one century, ornament has made a comeback that is no longer possible to ignore. This renewed interest in ornamental and richer decorative forms has spread from architecture to design, fashion and the visual arts in general. Ornament seems to have finally regained its place among the arts and has become once again a matter of reflection and experimentation, involving various materials and media. Adolf Loos’ aggressive condemnation in Ornament und Verbrechen (1910) appears now a long way off. This renewed interest has not left untouched the field of art and architectural history. Since the 1990s, and even more so since the beginning of this new century, studies have multiplied all over the world, involving an ever broader temporal and cultural panorama. This has led to numerous publications on the use, function and history of ornament, as well as the promotion of new editions of historical treatises, drawings and pattern books, in both printed and digital versions.1 These studies, which seem to increase every year,2 have not been limited to the Western arts, but 1 A recent example in this sense is Sabina de Cavi, ed, Giacomo Amato.

The OIG substantiated the allegations. The OIG found that 3 employees (a Wireman, an Electrical Foreman, and a Carpenter Foreman) had used the Unauthorized Breakroom based on evidence found inside and the statements of 1 of the employees. The 3 employees falsely denied that they had access to the Unauthorized Breakroom which, as detailed below, is implausible. Also, a supervisor was untruthful with the OIG during the investigation. In addition, the OIG also found that a safety risk was created when the employees’ managers were unaware the Unauthorized Breakroom existed or which employees had keys to it. Furthermore, our investigation revealed that the MNR Security Department (MNR Security) lacks a formal process to track the investigation of complaints that the MNR President’s Office refers.

    currently required in the R-70 Zoning District. As part of the permitting process for the detached garage, surveys are required. Through the review of the survey staff discovered the violation. The survey given shows the detached garage 74.8 feet from the front property line. DEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS ENGINEERING: No issues on variance request to reduce front setback. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH: No objections to proposed variance. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT: No comments. FIRE MARSHAL No comments. WATER SYSTEM: No comment. The applicant provides the following information: VARIANCE SUMMARY Provide a detailed and specific summary of each request. If additional space is needed, please attach a separate sheet of paper. We bought our house/property at 100 Rosemont Trace, Fayetteville, (unincorporated Fayette County), Stubbs Plantation subdivision, in late October 2011, which sits on the corner of Antioch Road and Rosemont Trace. We are the third owner on record. Our property contains our house, a detached garage, and a storage shed. The house and garage were built by John Weiland homes, in 1987 & 1988, respectively. The builder applied for and received a permit for both structures. As it turns out, the detached garage was built over the 80’ setback required from Antioch Road with NW corner being surveyed and recorded at 77.3’ and the SW corner being surveyed and recorded at 74.8’ (see copy of plat). 2 A-723-20 We currently use this detached garage as such: a garage, a “man-cave”, and for storage. We would like to convert the interior of this structure into “The Nana Cottage” to accommodate my 81 year-old mother to move from Kentucky, as she is in need of additional assistance in various areas at this stage in her life, of which I cannot accomplish from Fayetteville.
