Happy Bold Kids Basement Playroom
This special play area was a big part of this basement renovation. We added tons of built in storage for big toys, open areas for creative play, and bright colors.

4. A colorful family space in Pennsylvania.The owners of this home in Breinigsville, Penn. wanted to remodel their unfinished basement into a space where they could entertain friends and family, and let their kids have a special play space of their very own. Above all else, they wanted to renovate the area so that it wouldn't feel like a dark and damp basement. Designer Shoshana Gosselin divided this open 930-square-foot space into zones. "We didn't want any walls separating each zone because the basement would shrink in size, so we worked with an open floor plan," says Gosselin. "This is also a good way to think if you're unsure of how you might use the basement in a few years." The kids' play space, tucked away towards the back of the basement, is slightly hidden from guests but still has plenty of space to store toys and games. Built-in shelving along one wall takes up minimal floor space, leaving more room for the children to play. A bright green paint from Sherwin Williams helps keep this room bright and light.

1. Sort by activity. Before you purchase any type of organizational system for your child's room or play space, take stock of everything that's in there and start sorting. Sort toys and books into piles to keep, throw away or donate. Then organize the items you've decided to keep by activity. This should help you figure out how much storage you'll need and what kind of system will best suit your space.

Balance the wall space. “Because kids’ furniture is shorter than normal, the biggest problem I see with playrooms is that the space becomes bottom heavy,” says Wolfe. “Oftentimes, there is no thought taken to the treatment of the vertical space.” To cure this, Wolfe suggests hanging photographs, art montages or permanently affixed blackboards. Don’t want to spend too much money on artwork? A very affordable artist may be right under your nose. “Your kids’ imaginations are often the best source for artwork: Give them credit and proudly showcase drawings in frames,” she says.
