An exterior entrance was added to this basement remodel where we built out a family room, bedroom, full bathroom and laundry room. A new foundation was poured and the concrete floors were stained a warm earth tone. The cool teals and blues juxtapose the warm wood and orange tones creating a lively space. Photos: Pete Eckert

Ready for the ultimate entertaining space while keeping a traditional feel? This finished basement was strategically designed to feel like an open large area with designated spaces for various activities thanks to the featured stone arches and columns along with gorgeous rustic lantern lighting. This basement was given a dramatic design but with soft lighting to help create a welcoming space. The continued use of espresso stained cherry wood columns, solid stone bases, slate-landing frames, double stone archways, and dark espresso stained baseboards, window millwork, and wainscot door, create continuity throughout the entirety of the basement.

A frosted glass door on a barn track allowed us to transfer light between rooms while allowing for privacy in the bathroom. By placing the door on a track we avoided a door swing in a very small basement. Photography by Spacecrafting Photography Inc.

Living room - contemporary medium tone wood floor and orange floor living room idea in Atlanta with green walls and a ribbon fireplace

In this project, Rochman Design Build converted an unfinished basement of a new Ann Arbor home into a stunning home pub and entertaining area, with commercial grade space for the owners' craft brewing passion. The feel is that of a speakeasy as a dark and hidden gem found in prohibition time. The materials include charcoal stained concrete floor, an arched wall veneered with red brick, and an exposed ceiling structure painted black. Bright copper is used as the sparkling gem with a pressed-tin-type ceiling over the bar area, which seats 10, copper bar top and concrete counters. Old style light fixtures with bare Edison bulbs, well placed LED accent lights under the bar top, thick shelves, steel supports and copper rivet connections accent the feel of the 6 active taps old-style pub. Meanwhile, the brewing room is splendidly modern with large scale brewing equipment, commercial ventilation hood, wash down facilities and specialty equipment. A large window allows a full view into the brewing room from the pub sitting area. In addition, the space is large enough to feel cozy enough for 4 around a high-top table or entertain a large gathering of 50. The basement remodel also includes a wine cellar, a guest bathroom and a room that can be used either as guest room or game room, and a storage area.

This contemporary rustic basement remodel transformed an unused part of the home into completely cozy, yet stylish, living, play, and work space for a young family. Starting with an elegant spiral staircase leading down to a multi-functional garden level basement. The living room set up serves as a gathering space for the family separate from the main level to allow for uninhibited entertainment and privacy. The floating shelves and gorgeous shiplap accent wall makes this room feel much more elegant than just a TV room. With plenty of storage for the entire family, adjacent from the TV room is an additional reading nook, including built-in custom shelving for optimal storage with contemporary design.
