This project involved converting a partially finished basement into an ultimate media room with an English pub. The family is big on entertaining and enjoys watching movies and college football. It was important to combine the media area with the pub to create options for guests within the same space. Although the home has a full sized basement the staircase was centrally located, which made it difficult for special configuration. As a result, we were able to work with the existing plan be designing a media area large enough for a sectional sofa and additional seating with the English pub at the far end of the room. The home owner had a projection screen on a bare wall with the electrical components stacked on boxes. The new plan involved installing new cabinets to accommodate components and surround the screen to give it a built-in finish. Open shelving also allows the homeowner to feature some of their collectible sports memorabilia. As if the 130 inch projection screen wasn’t large enough, the surround sound system makes you feel like you are part of the action. It is as close to the I MAX viewing experience as you are going to get in a home. Sound-deadening insulation was installed in the ceiling and walls to prevent noise from penetrating the second floor. The design of the pub was inspired by the home owner’s favorite local pub, Brazenhead. The bar countertop with lift-top entrance was custom built by our carpenters to simulate aged wood. The finish looks rough, but it is smooth enough to wipe down easily. The top encloses the bar and provides seating for guests. A TV at the bar allows guest to follow along with the game on the big screen or tune into another game. The game table provides even another option for entertainment in the media room. Stacked stone with thick mortar joints was installed on the face of the bar and to an opposite wall containing the entrance to a wine room. Hand scrapped hardwood floors were installed in the pub portion of the media room to provide yet another touch to “Brazenhead” their own pub. The wet bar is under a soffit area that continues into the media area due to existing duct work. We wanted to creatively find a way to separate the two spaces. Adding trim on the ceiling and front of soffit at the bar defined the area and made a great transition from the drywall soffit to the wet bar. A tin ceiling was installed which added to the ambience of the pub wet bar and further aided in defining the soffit as an intentional part of the design. Custom built wainscoting borders the perimeter of the media room. The end result allows the client to comfortably entertain in a space designed just for them.

As part of the Arbogast Ranch farmhouse remodel our company "un-modeled" a previous remodel done by a misguided contractor. Luckily we found enough components in the attic to refurbish and weather seal the original 1930's double hung window. The beveled mirror, wainscot, and vanity were all shop built locally. The (porcelain) Carrara floor sports an electric heating matt. We re-finished the original clawfoot tub and feet (not fun but I'd do it again for appreciative clients).

Custom built Industrial Secretary to keep everything in its place. Made out of white oak and black metal poles. Commissioned artwork from local artist hung above whiskey bar.

This bathroom was created within the existing footprint of the architecture. The cabinets are a combination of custom designed/built by Jule Lucero and a local cabinet maker, and the lavatories are selected and sourced from Restoration Hardware. The lighting is from a Moroccan importer, and Jule utilized a local lighting shop to fabricate UL components for use in the US. The Wood Screen window treatment is a 3-piece wood decorative panel from Indonesia. Jule selected this to be used as a window treatment to offer lighting, privacy and a focal feature for the tub. The screen was fabricated with hinges and a back translucent fabric to become a custom shutter.

The wood flooring in this dining room was one of the existing features that Jule Lucero, Interior Designer chose to retain. She sourced a local wood flooring supplier to collaborate with to create more of this material to be installed, for a unified design and atmosphere through most of the primary rooms. The dining table is custom made. Jule Lucero, Interior Designer, found a Mexican import shop locally, selecting various components, custom stain & finish. The top is a heavy mesquite wood, with a carved edge, creating a tactile and grounding mood to the dining experience. The dining chairs are from West Elm, the buffet cabinet is sourced from a Thrift Shop, The lighting is Hubberton Forge Iron, The artwork is a photograph from the homeowners collection.

The expansive common spaces include a 15' long dining table, open kitchen and living room with multiple seating areas. One of our favorite components of this project was the lighting, especially the custom neon chandelier we partnered and designed with a local neon artist. Suspended from the grand 30' vaulted ceilings, the tubular light sculpture floats effortlessly above the expansive dining table. Clinton Perry Photography
