A young growing family purchased a great home in Chicago’s West Bucktown, right by Logan Square. It had good bones. The basement had been redone at some point, but it was due for another refresh. It made sense to plan a mindful remodel that would acommodate life as the kids got older.
“A nice place to just hang out” is what the owners told us they wanted. “You want your kids to want to be in your house. When friends are over, you want them to have a nice space to go to and enjoy.”

Level up the style to suit this young family
Add bar area, desk, and plenty of storage
Include dramatic linear fireplace

THE RENEWED SPACE
The homeowners love their renewed basement. It’s truly a welcoming, functional space. They can enjoy it together as a family, and it also serves as a peaceful retreat for the parents once the kids are tucked in for the night.
Synergy Design & Construction
A unique blue pool table, stylish pendants, futuristic metal accents and a floating gas fireplace all contribute to the contemporary feel of the basement.
Just Basements
Custom walnut cabinetry topped with white and grey quartz countertops. Check what's on tap....there's 8 home brewed beers to choose from. The bar looks out over the lounge with a bio-fuel fireplace for relaxing or entertaining.
Chi Renovation & Design
A fun updated to a once dated basement. We renovated this client’s basement to be the perfect play area for their children as well as a chic gathering place for their friends and family. In order to accomplish this, we needed to ensure plenty of storage and seating. Some of the first elements we installed were large cabinets throughout the basement as well as a large banquette, perfect for hiding children’s toys as well as offering ample seating for their guests. Next, to brighten up the space in colors both children and adults would find pleasing, we added a textured blue accent wall and painted the cabinetry a pale green.
Upstairs, we renovated the bathroom to be a kid-friendly space by replacing the stand-up shower with a full bath. The natural stone wall adds warmth to the space and creates a visually pleasing contrast of design.
Lastly, we designed an organized and practical mudroom, creating a perfect place for the whole family to store jackets, shoes, backpacks, and purses.

BedfordBrooks Design Inc.
The basement had the least going for it. All you saw was a drywall box for a fireplace with an insert that was off center and flanked with floating shelves. To play off the asymmetry, we decided to fill in the remaining space between the fireplace and basement wall with a metal insert that houses birch logs. A flat walnut mantel top was applied which carries down along one side to connect with the walnut drawers at the bottom of the large built-in book case unit designed by BedfordBrooks Design. Sliding doors were added to either hide or reveal the television/shelves.
