ANN ARBOR, Mich. - eTradeWire -- As your family grows and your life changes, you may find that your dream home needs to change with you.

How can you make the most out of spaces that don't serve you anymore?

If you don't want to go through the hassle of moving, consider some of these ideas to create multifunctional spaces in your home that will fit your needs – from a home office to a game room, to a kitchen where friends and family can gather.

With more companies offering work-from-home options, you might find yourself needing a place to set up with your laptop, documents, and other work accessories. Your kitchen is probably one of the more well-lit spots in your home, making it a great option. A built-in desk in the corner or a tiny desk with floating shelves above it are sleek ideas that won't clash with your current kitchen setup.

If you need more square footage, an option is to convert your garage to a living space. If it makes sense given your other storage options and a safe place to park your car, insulating and finishing your garage can make it just as cozy as your living room. Turn the large open space into a game room with a pool table or hang a projector to make it a great movie theater for weekends.
