LDa Architecture & Interiors Hello! It's a decorative door that belonged to the client, and does not lead anywhere.

Matthew Bellis Thank you for the prompt response. It is a beautiful door. Looks as if it goes even further down into the dungeons!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
Create a nice seating area for the big-screen television and share light between rooms to keep the basement light and bright.
3. Light up shelves for function. See which other areas in your basement, such as bookshelves, might benefit from extra lighting. “You can easily create drama in a built in shelving space by adding lighting to highlight family collections or prized artwork,” says Hullinger.
