I Converted My Garage into a Victorian Dark Academia Library (Full Tour)

I converted an old, leaking garage with a hole in the roof into a Victorian Dark Academia-inspired gentleman’s study and recording studio—in just 4 weeks and for under £1,000! Inspired by Sherlock Holmes, Bilbo Baggins’ Hobbit hole, and the Continental vault from John Wick, this budget garage transformation blends classic gothic library aesthetics with practical home office functionality. Watch to see how I repurposed an IKEA Billy bookcase into a custom antique library, built an acoustic stately home ceiling, restored vintage RAF artifacts, and created a cozy dark academia aesthetic workspace.
