How can I decorate a basement cinder block space-> exercise room?
I have a basement room that I am turning into a workout room( elliptical, recumbent bike, floor space ) The walls are cement block and the floor is cement. Any ideas to make it inviting so that I will actually use it? 😂 I absolutely love the beach so those colors are so inviting. Thanks in advance!
I would soften up some of the surfaces, you can use a few rugs with good back gripping, maybe set your equipment on rugs, or place one beside each piece, you could add a few soft chairs with pillows and brighten up the space with like an ocean blue wall and paint the rest sand color. It would be so pretty and relaxing. A few peaceful ocean pics on the walls and you'll have a paradise to work out in.
You might could use fabric wall hanging to soften the space.
You could even make a scrap wood wall like this to add a natural element. https://www.hometalk.com/3254469/how-to-install-a-scrap-wood-wall

Or if you can find old windows, they could be fun https://www.hometalk.com/28820149/custom-stained-glass

You can use fish net on the wall to start with.
