Discovery Basement Remodel
This site has many options...if you want it in the room, there are 2 areas...Media wall top left OR wet bar wall. Just offering eclectic pieces that I know Garry wanted in the space. Personally, I think the LP wall and Beatles frame with possible collector 45's is enough for this space. Anything more and it becomes cluttered. / I agree it could look cluttered if we do too much. We are good with no clock
It would be great If we could do something with the collector 45's Garry has combined with these on the wall. Will have to discuss options. Are you aware of any stores in town that specialize in framing memorabilia? L The only other wall available in the media room is the curved and frames won't sit well. However, 45's out of their jackets could work...
Final design Wet Bar. Changes to middle base to store plates etc. Wall cabs are now the same Besta as Media, only the narrower, depth wise. This is sufficient for glasses and it creates a much 'lighter', less kitchen design. The floating shelves will be the same depth to keep it streamlined. Storage for 8 hanging wine glasses, 15 bottles. Doors on cabinets can easily be changed but I need to get this confirmed for production. We both like it
If Garry was to get an ottoman for his chair, do you think this would work? He likes it. Or was there a matching ottoman for the chair he ordered?n this one is From Wayfair Site. Mercurio swivel ottoman $165.99 This is a tough one without see it...I wouldn't assume the colours on this will work with the chair...if you love the funk factor, order it knowing you can return... Ok, will think about ordering.
Like the idea of Edison bulb fixture for office. Open to other light fixtures but really like this fixture for style and funk factor. Comes in bronze and Chrome. Maybe we could find something similar locally. G2 https://www.allmodern.com/Flux-16-Light-Chandelier-AQ3749.html https://www.allmodern.com/Flux-16-Light-Chandelier-AQ3749.html On it...just be aware that the ceiling height with these will need to be above desk...which it should. Otherwise, it doesn't provide enough clearance.
Grey owl
Full tiled wall concept/grey walls
Ikea Laxarby Cabinets (black) I'd REALLY like to use this but 'lighten' up the look. The black cabs would work great with the overall look I'm thinking of.
Record framed wall - I'd still like to do this...
Media Area BEFORE...Full tile to go on FP wall and floating storage, 60" TV with possible open storage for LP's etc.
Floor Plan
Bar unit and cabinet colours
Bookshelves...we could replicate this idea using simple IKEA Kallax units and then I'd have my metal gal make the iron supports.
alternate display ideas for upper wall, rather than a row of closed cabinets. ......Love everything about this combination. Like the cabinets , the hardware, the countertop, the floating shelves and the wine rack on the wall! It's a winner!!!!! G2
Quick layout of wetbar base...only dishwasher would be a wine fridge. 6'wide, stainless steel toe kick option.......Nice contemporary design G2 Are the cabinets black or brown or some other shade? G2 Black...Steel legs, rather than a toe kick is an option as well.
If there is room in the budget, I like the versatility and look of this shelving unit (office, perhaps) http://www.crateandbarrel.com/rubix-shelf/s528594
Wallpaper and frame idea for powder room. G2
Are you open to something 'fun' in the bar area? Yes open to this type of thing :)........we could also do a saying with music theme G2 I'm on the hunt for some vintage music pieces...
Sofa choice
Sofa next to cool grey walls
FP wall tile.....love it. G2
offset tv.....I think we are good with offset layout. Question is whether we do floating shelves or the ikea kallax bookshelves with the metal tubing at floor and ceiling. Right now I am leaning to funky bookshelf idea. More unique? G2
Another idea for walls. G2
Very eclectic...along the lines of the cassette table;) And retro bar table...
I've exhausted all of my sources for a media option...I do love Resource Furniture, but most of my previous clients didn't have the budget to consider it...also takes quite awhile to ship. I'm going to keep looking... / looks nice, but I assume it's not in our budget either. What have we budgeted? $1500.Have you looked at Costco. Ca? L Great looking unit! G2
basement bath mirror....... Can we do something with frame or metal accents / hardware? G2 Of course...this is just a clean line option given the small sink/cabinet.
I believe this is the table you suggested. Like this table with these chairs. Like the style of the chairs. Would be open to other colours for the chairs.G2
Like the coffee tables and metal floating self on wall. G2
For my reference.
Looking into availability on this one. /based on pictures, I like this one the best. The glass one might be nice too as visually it wouldn't be heavy looking. L ORDERED!
Cool find...
Chalk wall and stencil of world map. Don't need a whole wall like this but maybe a "chalk picture" like this would be cool?
Like this swivel chair. Lind Canada Style 960 at F2. Fabric is $1010 and goes up from there for leather. Ordered a teal colour...good wearing fabric. 8-10 week delivery
Was hoping to incorporate this into the media room....G2. Dimensions of picture are 36" W x 24" H. We could change the frame if needed. This has been sitting in storage for a while! S. That's awesome!
Another interesting configuration...whatever the wood tone ends up being in the Media area, I'll tie in the coffee table wood tone........Like the look of the floating cabinets versus ones on floor. Would be ok if cabinet had steel legs. Other colour combo I like is black with either gray or brown. G2/ I prefer the darker choices, and like the idea of adding touches of stainless steel. L
Exploring other office ideas. G2 Currently designing this...awaiting a quote...initial estimate was $4600 Like the colour of desk and cabinets. Love the light fixture with Edison bulb look G2
Revision...door on base can be moved...minor adjustment..... G2 Looks much better. Can we put doors on all 4 sections of the lower cabinets? I think bottom cabinet might look better if have 4 walnut doors on bottom cabinets. If doors are on is there any place for heat to vent? How will you use the remotes with doors on?....The new remotes incuding Harmony Remotes with Hub uses IR, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth wireless signals.- Works with over 270,000 compatible home entertainment devices from more than 6,000 brands. - Control devices behind closed cabinets and inside doors. Lori and I think the bottom cabinet will look better with doors all the way across. We really like the walnut colour G2
Playbar below TV
Aerial - plenty of flow around wet bar, card table seating, into living room seating...sofa could be pushed a little farther back......Agree...optimal viewing distance for 65" 4K UHD is 6 to 7 feet. I.e keep sectional where it is.
Floor lamp and end table are not confirmed...just showing placement....Would prefer a more unique coffee table and end table. We can figure that out down the road. G2
Media Wall - doors can be relocated easily, top of TV unit can have black glass top......Would like all bottom sections enclosed with doors. I.e. 4 doors on bottom section please. Thanks G2
LP display with 4x4 I was trying vs. the 3x3, as I felt it was too small for the wall/space.......Agree. Like 4x4 or larger better. We can also create some columns with collector 45's that are framed on this wall or the circular wall. G2
Now that we are including a wall cabinet, I'm less excited about the layout...I've tried a few options. Still will play with it a bit and decide once I meet with the carpenter this week. Agree. Maybe two closed cabinets. One on each side but located at different heights. The lower cabinet has rack underneath for wine glasses. Or the lower cabinet(s) on right side are slide out and are deep enough for storing bar glasses, cutlery and small dishes. 3rd Option is cubes up top that are floating but not closed. Still provides some dust protection for for bar glasses, dishes, bowls etc. You can rework. G2
Thought of you Garry...gears $250 Yes this is pretty cool. Let's keep as a back up idea. I assume you were thinking office?Would still prefer map, globe or travel theme for office. G2
