This older couple residing in a golf course community wanted to expand their living space and finish up their unfinished basement for entertainment purposes and more. Their wish list included: exercise room, full scale movie theater, fireplace area, guest bedroom, full size master bath suite style, full bar area, entertainment and pool table area, and tray ceiling. After major concrete breaking and running ground plumbing, we used a dead corner of basement near staircase to tuck in bar area. A dual entrance bathroom from guest bedroom and main entertainment area was placed on far wall to create a large uninterrupted main floor area. A custom barn door for closet gives extra floor space to guest bedroom. New movie theater room with multi-level seating, sound panel walls, two rows of recliner seating, 120-inch screen, state of art A/V system, custom pattern carpeting, surround sound & in-speakers, custom molding and trim with fluted columns, custom mahogany theater doors. The bar area includes copper panel ceiling and rope lighting inside tray area, wrapped around cherry cabinets and dark granite top, plenty of stools and decorated with glass backsplash and listed glass cabinets. The main seating area includes a linear fireplace, covered with floor to ceiling ledger stone and an embedded television above it. The new exercise room with two French doors, full mirror walls, a couple storage closets, and rubber floors provide a fully equipped home gym. The unused space under staircase now includes a hidden bookcase for storage and A/V equipment. New bathroom includes fully equipped body sprays, large corner shower, double vanities, and lots of other amenities. Carefully selected trim work, crown molding, tray ceiling, wainscoting, wide plank engineered flooring, matching stairs, and railing, makes this basement remodel the jewel of this community.

A covered porch addition creates a peaceful and harmonious outdoor living area. The artisan-crafted timberwork frames the views overlooking the pool terrace and lawn. It engages the interior spaces by bringing the beauty of the outdoors in. I was the project architect for this addition while working at Kenneth Lynch & Associates. Photo credit: Brad Dassler-Bethel

This family room is just off of the kitchen and dining rooms. The fireplace has a traditional mantle and the T.V. sits above it. The floors are hardwood and softened up with various area rugs. Sliding glass doors lead to the outside areas. The great room has different ceiling heights to separate the spaces, and as we can see here, the family room has vaulted ceilings. This feature can help any space look larger, and the already large family room starts to look expansive.

The Thiel center channel speaker rests on Vibrapod absorbers to minimize interaction with the cabinet and there is extensive acoustic foam dampening to reduce boominess and improve clarity. The black area on the fold down door is acoustically transparent cloth. To the left is more A/V gear.
