Robin's Nest InteriorsUpdated Spec Home: Basement Living Area
I promised you there would be a Season 2 of our series Updated Spec Home and here it is – Basement Family Room. My mom and sister found themselves spending more and more time in this room because it was a great open space to watch television and hang out with my sister’s two border collies.
Color Scheme
We pulled our color scheme from a floral fabric that they saw on a chair at my store, and we used it to reupholster their existing wood accent chairs. We used pops of turquoise and green throughout the space including the long back wall which was perfect to make a feature with this vibrant wallpaper in a geometric design.
Defining the Space
The room was so large that we needed to define different areas. The large rug in the oversized pattern was perfect for the seating area.
Lighting
Since there is only one small window bringing natural light into the space, we painted the remaining walls a light warm gray (Sherwin Williams’ City Loft SW7631) and added several table lamps and a floor lamp for task lighting.
Reusing Existing Furniture
Fortunately the space was large enough so my sister could keep her fabulous worn leather chair and ottoman and my mom could have an upholstered chair and ottoman in a subtle blue and green tweed.
The large hallway leading to the storage area was the perfect place for these small bookcases which house family photos in various silver frames. The bookcases have a special place in our hearts – they belonged to my grandparents. We accessorized with a long painted box which was the perfect scale for the bookcases and a grouping of vibrant botanical prints.
In lieu of a conventional media cabinet, my mom and sister found this one with a built-in fireplace. It brings a lot of warmth into the space – literally!
Painted Furniture
We had Kelly Sisler of Kelly Faux Creations paint their existing glass front cabinet this awesome apple green. Accessories include turquoise floral vases, a metallic circular vase, and a beautiful floral print.
Reading Nook
We positioned this original oil painting in the landing so it would be visible from the seating area. The landing was the perfect spot to display my sister’s collection of art glass. I love the small reading nook created with this rattan wooden accent chair and lantern floor lamp. We were able to make good use of the ledge in the stairwell by leaning these vibrant watercolors.
The dogs even have their own space. Meet my two “nephews” – Dill and Atticus (the one with his back to us pouting). We used this colorful oversized canvas to define their space and break up the long wall.
As you know, one good thing leads to another. Be sure to tune in next week for a surprise addition to this Updated Spec Home. In the meantime, check out this Basement Family Room designed by Robin’s Nest Interiors. Enjoy!

The Cabinet Store + Culina DesignThe home, built in the mid ’90s, needed an update. However, the family wanted to keep the renovations neutral enough to accommodate future changes and transformations. They had several project goals, including:
* Eliminate the family’s dining room table
* Add additional storage
* Create the new kitchen design within the footprint of their existing floor plan
* Make the refrigerator more easily accessible
To accomplish this, we removed the clunky dining room table and integrated seating into the home’s kitchen island. To remedy their storage woes we installed three large pantry cabinets. We also relocated the fridge for easier access. To add some style to the space, the family upgraded their cabinets to Showplace cabinets featuring the freeport door style in lyptus wood with a truffle finish. They replaced their existing countertops with Cambria Canterbury and installed a complementary Elkay granite sink.
Douglah DesignsThis gorgeous home renovation was a fun project to work on. The goal for the whole-house remodel was to infuse the home with a fresh new perspective while hinting at the traditional Mediterranean flare. We also wanted to balance the new and the old and help feature the customer’s existing character pieces. Let's begin with the custom front door, which is made with heavy distressing and a custom stain, along with glass and wrought iron hardware. The exterior sconces, dark light compliant, are rubbed bronze Hinkley with clear seedy glass and etched opal interior.
Moving on to the dining room, porcelain tile made to look like wood was installed throughout the main level. The dining room floor features a herringbone pattern inlay to define the space and add a custom touch. A reclaimed wood beam with a custom stain and oil-rubbed bronze chandelier creates a cozy and warm atmosphere.
In the kitchen, a hammered copper hood and matching undermount sink are the stars of the show. The tile backsplash is hand-painted and customized with a rustic texture, adding to the charm and character of this beautiful kitchen.
The powder room features a copper and steel vanity and a matching hammered copper framed mirror. A porcelain tile backsplash adds texture and uniqueness.
Lastly, a brick-backed hanging gas fireplace with a custom reclaimed wood mantle is the perfect finishing touch to this spectacular whole house remodel. It is a stunning transformation that truly showcases the artistry of our design and construction teams.

Studio SteidleyThis bathroom was in need of updating so we took it down to the studs and even removed the existing windows, relocated one, and turned one into a transom. The stacked stone accent wall provides a statement without a lot of fuss allowing the free-standing tub to enjoy the spotlight. The homeowners requested 'no lip' at the shower as they are getting more mature in age and do not want a trip hazard but they are still young enough to enjoy all that this shower has to offer.

Catherine VanBuskirk Interior DesignThe Master Bath of this home situated in a remote, high setting backing into the Marin Headlands offers a spectacular sweeping view that is breathtaking. I told them right away it looked so pristine it reminded me of Jurassic Park. Designing for the couple who lives here was sheer joy, since the two of them love the same things, all warm, natural, and organic. We updated an existing closed in, cave like steam shower to one that allows you to see the view and replaced the old jetted tub that sat in the corner of the bath (with a seat facing the bathroom rather than the view) to a new concrete- resin, free standing tub. In order to get the 800 lb tub into the space it had to be air lifted with a crane over the house onto the deck and trough the window openings before the new windows were installed. The clients say it was all worth it! This bath was a complete gut and remodel while the Guest Bath and Powder Bath were updated in part with new custom vanities, counter tops, plumbing, mirrors lighting and sinks, plus a bit of tile and the addition of a barn door. Every bath is now up to date, warm and rich with real and look-alike stones that mix and blend with metals and a bit of sparkle for the owner who is and artist.

Sophia M. AmianoThis stunning, timeless kitchen remodel completely changed the feel of the kitchen area. The kitchen previously had dark, wood-stained cabinetry as well as dark, cherry hardwood flooring throughout the home. When designing the new space, we made it clear to brighten up the cabinetry, but still, coordinate with the existing colors in the home. With this being said, the cabinetry features a custom paint finish, complete with a glaze. We also incorporated an island in this kitchen, giving this space even more storage as well as countertop space, giving this homeowner her dream kitchen she will be able to enjoy for years to come!
DeBari HomeThis was a kitchen renovation on a major budget. We managed it by leaving the existing cabinetry and adding to it instead of starting from scratch. Paint is cheap and can do a great deal to transform a space! Additionally, the appliances were sourced an extreme discount. We had to drive five hours away to get them, but we saved several thousand dollars doing so! Appliances, marble tile, new 2" butcherblock countertop, and marble island, this kitchen came in at just under 10K! A budget miracle! The best thing about this layout is convenience. All of the pans for the stove are right under the stove in deep drawers. Spice racks and oil and vinegar racks are on either side above the stove. There was only room for a small kitchen island, but it is maximally useful with a built in cutting board with a hole in its back edge which sweeps straight into the waste bin. All the bakeware is in deep drawers under the oven, and the deep pull out pantry to the left of the oven holds a ton of food!
Carlton EdwardsThe Cherry Road project is a humble yet striking example of how small changes can have a big impact. A meaningful project as the final room to be renovated in this house, thus our completion aligned with the family’s move-in. The kitchen posed a number of problems the design worked to remedy. Such as an existing window oriented the room towards a neighboring driveway. The initial design move sought to reorganize the space internally, focusing the view from the sink back through the house to the pool and courtyard beyond. This simple repositioning allowed the range to center on the opposite wall, flanked by two windows that reduce direct views to the driveway while increasing the natural light of the space.
At the range, we incorporated stainless steel countertops to integrate with the range itself, to make that more seamless flow. The edge detail is historic from the 1930s.
At the range itself, there are a number of custom detailed incorporated for storage of cooking oils and spices, in a pullout. A custom knife block that's in a pull out as well.

Castle Building & RemodelingOur clients came to us with a desire to expand what was a fairly small kitchen in a large 1977 home. Many of the main living spaces were unused, so the existing kitchen and former dining room were combined into a new, large kitchen that includes 2 large walnut topped islands, a bar area, and an organizational area for mail and crafts. What was created was a room that allows the family to cook, entertain and play all in one area. The amount of storage space in this kitchen was fully maximized through custom pantry cabinets, pull out accessories and more. The perimeter cabinets were topped off with beautiful, classic Cambria quartz counters that resemble marble – a finish that fits perfectly into this traditionally styled home. The traditional style was played up through unique cement tiles, subway tiles, wired glass cabinet door inserts, a farm style sink, and oil rubbed bronze finishes. The appliances were a definite upgrade as well, reusing the single oven in the island and adding a large 36” range. In the end, this show-stopping kitchen is now a family friendly oasis for everyone from the cooks to the kids.
West Trade InteriorsThis 1927 home in historic Dilworth underwent extensive renovations after our client closed on the house in early 2016. For an almost 100 year old house, it has an excellent flow. It boasts a rare open floor plan with connected kitchen, dining room and den without sacrificing an ounce of charm but the wall colors and finishes were a disaster when we took possession.
Fresh paint and a brand new kitchen created the perfect backdrop for blending her existing furniture with infusions of newness. The entire den seating area was brand new. Furniture from Charles Stewart Company and media console by Lorts.
A neat feature of this home is that it showcases the work of 3 local artists:
Marcy Gregg: Original oil featured above master fireplace
Karen O'Leary, Studio KMO: Set of 3 custom cut local neighborhood maps in hall
Lindsey Lindquist: Large commissioned piece in family room, pair stairwell paintings

UserThis expansive living room was made larger by relocating an existing HVAC system that was originally placed in the middle of the home. Since being relocated, the living room opens up into the kitchen and dining room. The dark stained hardwood floors are hand planed, which has a white shag area rug that sits on top. The Sherwin Williams wall color is gray with a blue hue, which coordinate well with the sofa fabric and matching throw pillows. The round, glass coffee table gives extra seating with four leather wedge style stools nested beneath. The grommet, panel style window treatments hang on an oil rubbed bronze rod above custom faux white wood blinds.
