The basement serves as a hang out room, and office for Malcolm. Nostalgic jerseys from Ohio State, The Saints, The Panthers and more line the walls. The main decorative wall is a span of 35 feet with a floor to ceiling white and gold wallpaper. It’s bold enough to hold up to all the wall hangings, but not too busy to distract.

The ceiling height in the basement is 12 feet. The living room is flooded with natural light thanks to two massive floor to ceiling all glass french doors, leading to a spacious below grade patio, featuring a gas fire pit.

The TV wall. The ABB Built-in - custom designed storage system for basement area in condo - queen size side tilt Murphy bed, TV cabinet with sliding doors, 4 drawer open closet, comforter cubby and shelving - Prefinished maple plywood, white melamine cabinet liner plywood, full extension undermount drawer slides, Trola Rolle 2000 sliding door system This project totally transformed the basement into a usable, comfortable living area and essentially created an additional bedroom in the condo. The access from the garage was tight so all components were built on-site. We love seeing how spaces like this can become functional and aesthetic with the client's vision and our building skills! Let us know how we can help create a usable area for you!! Feel free to contact us through Facebook, @vpw.designs on Instagram or vpwdesigns.com Thanks for looking!

Everything about this poker room was custom. The table was designed by me and built by Whitmer Woodworks out of Columbus, OH. The artwork was commissioned by a Ohio artist as well, made from all poker chips with a frame job built to mimic the shape of a playing card.

Luxury Modern Basement Ideas and Designs

In an age where space is at a premium, the newest trend in urban home renovation is the basement conversion, allowing a homeowner to increase the square footage of their home without increasing their plot size or reducing the size of their garden. Basement excavations and constructions can provide an extra floor of living space and with modern construction techniques a basement can become a modern bright, warm and airy heart of your home. An increasing number of us are transforming this previously wasted space into an awe inspiring kitchen or living area, whilst those seeking to create a real luxury addition to their home are opting for modern basement ideas such as home cinemas, gyms and spas, man caves or pool rooms.

What type of home is suitable for a modern basement conversion?

A modern basement conversion is particularly suitable for urban homes on small plots and can offer the perfect solution for extending a terraced or semi-detached urban home. Whilst it is typically more costly to convert a basement than to complete a loft conversion or extension, for those that have already completed these renovations or where even more space is required, extending below ground can be the best option. The best candidates are homes with an existing cellar and it is just a case of deepening or expanding the existing space. If you don't have a cellar, a retro-fit modern basement can be created but a project of this magnitude will require additional time and money.

What room should I turn my basement or cellar into?

The proximity of the basement conversion to the living areas and internal infrastructure of the house make it ideal for additional living, recreational and utility rooms. It can also lend itself well to creating an entirely separate, self-contained annexe or apartment. If you’re just extending your house for some extra space to play with, the modern basement ideas you could have are the stuff of dreams: home gyms, snooker rooms, wine cellars, home bars and indoor swimming pools are among the most exciting uses.

How should I tackle a cellar or basement conversion?

The best thing to do is contact a professional to assess how feasible it will be to have a basement conversion or excavation in your home. There’s no point looking at lots of modern basement ideas if it would actually be structurally impossible to install a basement room. You should also check what permissions and consents you will need before beginning a project like this – a basement conversion can be very disruptive for you and neighbours so you need to make sure you are legally allowed to go ahead with the conversion first. Your chosen contractors will then need to underpin foundations for support, completely waterproof the basement and build in the internal walls. Then, all the finishing touches, staircases, flooring and electrics will need to be completed. Remember to consider internal balconies or mezzanines, as well as light wells and perhaps sunken terraces outside of the basement to introduce as much light as possible. Start browsing through the photos on Houzz to get some modern basement ideas and inspiration. You can start saving your favourite photos to ideabooks and then contact professionals that have worked on projects you like.
