Transform And Roll Out!: Hangar Garage Looks Inconspicuously Like Plain Ol' Back Of House

This is a garage that looks like the back of a house/barn until the door opens. And then, oh man, it's clearly a garage.

Usually, dream garages never become reality. It's rare to find someone with enough ambition and/or cash to make it happen, but credit one Florida couple for creating something remarkable: the Hangar Home.


Their house's rear facade doubles as a garage door that conceals a cavernous work and storage area, complete with a set of cushy-looking armchairs for when the weekend project is over.

Not bad. It certainly beats my garage, which is a parallel spot on the street. Under a tree. Shade, baby! Also: bird shit and pollen.

Hit the jump for a video of the door opening BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT DOORS DO. Unless it's mine, in which case it gets kicked down by junkies looking for something to steal.
