One of the biggest struggles for any hobby gamer is finding a way to store your board games. Everyone has a different threshold for how many games they want to collect and keep in their home, but no matter what that number is for you, finding a way to store them can be a challenge.

We live in a smaller home and don’t have the option to create a dedicated board game room. That would be a complete dream, but for now, it’s not a reality.

However, I didn’t want that to stop us from creating a space that is both beautiful and functional. Kallaxes might work great for some, but for me, they are just not the way. I wanted to create a space that was ready to host the best board game nights that didn’t scream “BOARD GAMES” to every guest that walked in our house.

So the plans began to create a secret game room in the living room.
