About Garage Form

The Origin

It started with a garage we weren't allowed to walk into.

The founder of Garage Form — like many of our clients — had a perfectly good garage that had been quietly written off. Not intentionally. It happened over years: one box at a time, one bike season, one renovation project left incomplete. Eventually the door stayed closed.

The frustration wasn't just about space. It was about a room that should have been beautiful — or at least useful — becoming a source of low-grade anxiety every time the door was opened.

We looked at how other industries solve this problem: the car showroom, the atelier, the studio kitchen, the architect's workshop. Not the "man cave" installers or the plastic shelving companies. We wanted to know what happened if a garage was treated with the same design intelligence as a Soho House lobby or a well-fitted kitchen.

The answer was Garage Form. We've been refining it ever since.

What We Believe

The principles that shape every project.

01

Materials matter. Always.

We don't use plastic shelving as a hero solution. We don't use cheap vinyl flooring. If it doesn't have the material integrity to appear in any other room of a well-kept house, it doesn't appear in one of ours.

02

Light is the first finish.

The most common failure in garage transformations is the lighting. Strip lights, fluorescent bars, harsh LEDs. We specify warm, high-CRI architectural light for every project. The material and the light together make the room.

03

Function is the brief. Beauty is the standard.

We don't build decorative garages. Every decision is functional first — the floor has to handle vehicles, the storage has to hold what you actually own. But within those constraints, there is no reason the space can't be beautiful.

04

Your belongings deserve respect.

A garage is full of things that matter to people. Tools inherited from a parent. Sports equipment from a previous life. We handle every item with care, donate generously, and never dispose of anything without your knowledge.

05

Honest pricing. Fixed quotes.

We don't estimate and adjust. We quote and deliver. Our fixed-price model means you know exactly what you're getting before a single day of work begins. No surprises. No escalations. No excuses.

06

The garage is part of the home.

Not separate from it. Not a utility afterthought. A proper room, connected to the house architecturally and aesthetically. When we're done, the garage should feel like it was always part of the design brief.

What We Don't Do

As important as what we do.

We define ourselves as much by what we refuse to do as by what we build. Our guardrails aren't arbitrary — they exist because these things produce spaces that look cheap, feel wrong and embarrass the rest of the house.

✕ RGB or colour-changing lighting

✕ LED strip lighting as a design feature

✕ "Man cave" positioning or branding

✕ Plastic hero flooring as a solution

✕ Neon signage or gimmick decoration

✕ Sports bar aesthetic or themed interiors

✕ Pin-up imagery or lad-culture decoration

What We Do Instead

Studio thinking. Atelier standards. Showroom finish.

We look at how the best kitchens, living rooms, hotel lobbies and professional ateliers are designed. We apply that logic to a garage. What materials work here? What light makes this feel like a room, not a utility space? What storage actually serves the person who uses it?

✓ Gallery-finish resin and herringbone oak floors

✓ Warm architectural lighting — recessed, pendant or track

✓ Solid oak shelving, benches and built-ins

✓ Powder-coated steel in black, grey or satin

✓ Persian and Turkish rugs as a finishing element

✓ Framed art and photography — curated, not generic

The Founder

Built this company
because no one else would.

Reeve Colacicco spent a decade in interior fit-out — kitchens, living rooms, high-specification refurbishment for private clients. He noticed that every project he worked on stopped at the garage door. Not because the client didn't care, but because there was no one who would treat the space with the same rigour.

Garage Form began with a simple proposition: the garage deserves better. Not a novelty version of better — a proper, designed, considered, material-led version. The same version that every other room in a well-kept home already has.
