I’m trying to invent a new room for the home. There hasn’t been one since the garage was repurposed as a workshop by Some Guy in 1933.
Considering calling it the Stack Room. Where you manage your connection to The Stack.

Many rooms from the Age of Mansions have gone obsolete:
Library
Smoking room/den
Scullery
Gun room
Skullduggery room
Boudoir
On the way out: formal dining room
There hasn’t been a new kind of room for homes in forever, even the workshop-garage is a hack, not new

The home office isn’t really a new kind of room for the home but a transplanted office room

The “study” proper has also disappeared, absorbed into some sort of den+home-office.
I guess home theater groom counts as an evolution of the living room?
Game room/“man cave” with Xbox and foosball and VR = billiards room of past, so not new

We barely scratched the surface in the yak collective “new old home” report
