In the house I like it 70 in winter and 68 in the summer.
In the garage about the same when I am working on a project out there.
I keep it set at 50 in winter when I am not planning on being out there.
If something pops up I can quickly raise the temp. My garage is fully insulated and my garage door is a steel insulated door, so I can heat and ac it pretty reasonably.
I like to work in a short sleeved T shirt. I like my comfort. lol
Safer to run power tools with short sleeves as well.
64 in the house officer, in winter? BRRRRR, too cold for my taste, I like wearin a t shirt in the house as well.
Going back out to the garage after a Coffee to continue working on my grille project it's 12 degrees outside right now, I left the heat on at 70 so it's all ready for me.
The days of me freezing my butt off or dripping with sweat to work on a project are long gone for me.
I bought this house 20 years ago because the garage was already insulated and had natural gas heat in it. the wife liked the House, so it was a win win for us both. I added a large 220V AC window unit several years ago in the garage.

Our day started at -22F. We loaded the family of 5 people, a guitar, electric bass, two fiddles and a snare drum with it's stand and stool. It takes some thought when fitting all of the cases into the back. Although it's not as bad as our 02 Jetta was.
