TL;DR
Aston Martin is offering an exclusive car storage design service...
The designs are as wild and unique as their cars and the only limit, seemingly, is your budget.

Car Lair
If you've ever thought your garage could do with a bit of sprucing up and that the lighting didn't showcase the paintwork of your car satisfactorily, then you might want to consider Aston Martins' new Galleries and Lair's service.

Imagine a home or luxury retreat built around your car. Picture creating the ultimate space to showcase your own automotive works of art. This is now achievable. -- Marek Reichman, Aston Martin Chief Creative Officer.

The typical vision for a garage of specialist cars evokes bright white walls, floodlighting, and polished flooring. Aston Martin hopes to change all this, their designs feature intriguing, underwater skylights, and car-sized glass cabinets. Truly luxurious spaces for you to relax and admire your prized possession from all angles. Create yourself a true "man cave" or a well-lit gallery.

One render even features a large, circular aquarium and a swimming pool encasing the car. Judging by the renders, you would need to drive your car onto a platform and then have it lifted down, very Batman!

Amazingly this isn't the first time Aston Martin has decided to take on the architectural industry. The team has worked on a number of dealerships globally, including their largest dealership the House of Aston Martin Aoyama, Tokyo.

The team has also worked on the Aston Martin Residences in Miami in conjunction with Revuelta Architecture and Bodas Miani Anger. It is currently set to be completed in 2022. This 66 story tower block features a range of luxury apartments of 65 m² (700 sq ft) to 176.5 m² (1900 sq ft) costing between $500,000 (€450,000) and $35,000,000 (€31,730,000)! Incredibly over 50% of these have already sold!
The design also includes private pools for the 7 penthouses and 1 duplex apartment. A carbon fiber reception desk will stand in each of the lobbies, whilst a gym, helipad, valet, rooftop infinity pool, virtual golf room, art gallery, a 'teen center', two cinemas, and a full-service spa round up the truly luxurious building.

This building also features private wine lockers, a movie theater, spa, virtual golf room, 4 car race simulator, a restaurant, and a bar.
