Australian enthusiasts to experience garage revolution

If a man's home is his castle...then what of his garage? Well, with the launch this week of Evolution Garages, the 'shed' can now be transformed into a shrine for motoring, biking and boating enthusiasts.

The only company of its kind in Australia, Evolution Garages uses commercial quality display cabinets, lighting, graphics, floor coverings and even fully functional bars and plasma screens to transform garages into themed 'playrooms' specifically designed for the individual enthusiast.

Existing themes on offer include Holden, Porsche, Ford, Ferrari, Harley and Hot Rod, but there are no limits when it comes to the design. The Evolution design team can work with individual clients to design and build the ultimate haven for vehicle and owner.

Co-founder Tony Jennings has over 30 years experience as a commercial shop-fitter, and as an avid member of Porsche Club of Victoria he’s already transformed his garage into a visually stunning ‘pedestal’ for his Porsche.

“I love my car and I am a true enthusiast. To me, the garage completes the picture. It’s my space to relax with friends, work on my car and showcase my pride,” said Mr Jennings.

“We want to be able to provide this option to fellow enthusiasts who only want the best when it comes to their number one passion. We understand each vehicle owner has their own dream so we are flexible to incorporate personal preferences and unique inclusions to create the ultimate space.”

With the Australian retail automotive industry turning over $120 billion a year (2005, ABS) Australians are well known for their commitment to cars, bikes and boats and Mr Jennings said there will be a huge market for Aussies looking to complete their vehicle experience with an at-home showroom.

“For true enthusiasts, this is serious business. Time, money and care are not only invested into the initial purchase of their vehicle, but also the ongoing maintenance improvement and enjoyment. The creation of a showroom garage is just the next logical step for those who love to love their car, bike or boat.”

In addition to transforming at-home garages, Evolution Garages can work within the commercial sector converting automotive showrooms, entertainment/hospitality spaces and special events, where a space can be themed and transformed - leaving a lasting impression.

Mr Jennings’ Porsche-themed garage is available for viewing in Kealba, Victoria.
