Lower Level

Must Haves:
Contemporary Pool table/Sectional/Tvs in bar and wall facing sectional/Saltwater Aquarium/Home Theater/Bar/Wine Cellar/Modern fireplace
Materials:
stone/brick/Granite
Wood – espresso dark stained; I do not like cherry wood, walnut or black wood.
Glass view into a contempoary brick wine cellar
Stained concrete (possibly stamped too) throughout. Carpet in the theater and bedroom.
Warm earth toned colored paint like in the photos. Paint can be darker in theater room.
Stainless steel appliances
**The basement should feel–warm, elegant, contemporary with rustic charm and will be used as an entertainment space. I really like John’s basement that you did in Jerome Village. I think starting with his bar and making it more contemporary will provide a good palette for the lower level.
