Workout
Mirrors and lighting to make space feel inviting/spacious/light despite not having windows... We are thinking of turning the basement/ground level that is under the kitchen into workout space. One thing that would be nice would be to have a section that has high enough ceilings to allow for jump roping.
The other idea of where to make a workout space would be Melissa's office. That room will have the benefit of lofted ceilings (so she can jump rope), so if the room can have enough space for her to put down a yoga mat/jump rope, the room can double as her office and her workout space.... Melissa just really likes the "feel" to this room here and could imagine a room like this being part office and part workout/yoga space...
