Basement Design Trends and Remodeling Ideas

Do you sometimes feel cramped in your home? If you don’t use your basement regularly, you’re denying yourself the comforts of additional living space. A basement renovation can create a more comfortable and functional space. It offers options for a growing family or makes a great place for entertaining. It can also increase your property value. Here are a few trends in today’s finished basement design and remodeling projects.

• Divide a wide-open space into separate rooms or create zones for multi-purpose areas. Consider adding a bedroom, media room, kitchenette, workout room or bathroom to suit your needs.
• New wall coverings, ceilings, lighting, furniture, area rugs and entrances can transform a utility area into a cozy and functional space.

Stadium seating, a theater system and recessed lighting can convert your basement into a media room or entertainment hub. Improve insulation, add soundproofing panels and include a kitchenette to enhance the experience.
