The Risinger Build Bonus Episode - Two Versions of a No-Drywall Garage
Matt Risinger showcases two upgraded garage designs in his Build Originals series, focusing on durability and function without drywall. The first design uses UV-finished ¾" birch plywood for walls and ceilings, offering easy anchor installation and future accessibility for wiring or plumbing. It includes smart features like a mini-split system, skylights, and smart panel integration for EV charging. The second, more premium version at his own home features higher-end materials, epoxy flooring, PVC base trim, enhanced electrical prep, and meticulous detailing. Both spaces reflect thoughtful planning, functional aesthetics, and long-term value for modern garages.
