Michael Andretti's Garage Rescue
A look inside the impressive garage of IZOD IndyCar team owner and Celebrity Apprentice contestant Michael Andretti
He may live and work in the fast lane, but the legendary race car driver and his family enjoy the calm and tranquility in their home garage. After a showroom-style makeover by ORG Home organization, Michael opens their doors to reveal a garage full of redesigned spaces any car enthusiast, celebrity, business owner, and family man would be proud to own.
While Michael has seen his share of garages, none compare to the one he finds at the end of his driveway each day. “My ORG Home garage is beautiful,” he says. “The whole solution was custom designed for us. We couldn’t ask for anything better.”
During every ORG Home in-home consultation, an experienced designer gains an understanding of the owner's needs, then translates them into a personalized design. Michael and his wife, Jodi, had their own vision for their revamped garage spaces. While functional storage was essential, the aesthetics played an equal role in the design process. “It was important to me and my wife, Jodi, that our garage could reflect the same level of style as the rest of our home,” said Michael.

Three-dimensional plans using ORGdesign specialized software allowed the Andrettis to be involved in the design process and visualize the ORG Home garage solution before it was installed.
Designing Andretti's Garage
Like many families in America, the Andrettis lead an active lifestyle and need storage solutions to support their everyday activities. Racing is their primary passion, but they also enjoy snowmobiling, boating, and other outdoor recreational activities. These varied pursuits drive a need to keep all their gear organized and easily accessible.
ORG Home garage cabinets and drawers provide a clean, effective way to organize equipment and keep clutter hidden neatly behind doors.
Notable features:
- One-inch thick shelves adjust easily
- Hanging rods store racing jackets
- Dovetail drawers provide a convenient place to store tools and other supplies
- Carefully selected racing memorabilia are strategically positioned for display above the cabinets.
- Another special feature of Andretti’s garage is the designated parking and storage space for their three scooters.
- The back walls are equipped with the ORGwall system featuring snap-and-lock hooks and baskets for holding helmets, keys, jackets, and more. The light Dover White color of the ORGwall complements the existing trim in the garage.
- Tall ORG Home cabinets serve as the family’s primary storage for holiday decorations and outdoor equipment.
