In today’s world; Basements are being re-utilized, re-purposed and sometimes converted into in-law suites. Both Laila & Maher’s parents live overseas and often visit so why not give them a space where everyone can coincide.
Homeowners’ request: We want at least 2 rooms, a large laundry room, an office, a play area, movie night area with a large sectional a bathroom and loads of storage – Yikes that’s a big wish list for only 1000 square feet, including the furnace room space.
Designer secret: Separating the bedrooms for the In-laws to the east side , the office and living space to the west side and creating a large central bathroom with extra long storage and a corridor with-in, I was able to turn this once gloomy and dingy basement into a family retreat . Light colors, durable waterproof VCT flooring, larger egress windows and better LED lighting enhances the space and opens the space so no one feels like they live underground. I also kept the open staircase in it’s space to minimize costs put gave it a face lift by painting all spindles and supports white and staining the stair treads to match floor.
Materials used: FLOOR; VCT vinyl 6mm floating floor 6” x 48” color walnut - WALL PAINT; 6206-21 Sketch paper – WALL SCONCE ; Parallax with Edison bulbs – STAIRS; Sanded, stained special walnut with a satin finish – DOORS & MOLDING; colonial by Boiserie Raymond - MEDIA UNIT; Ikea Besta – FURNITURE & DECOR; By client.

A setting created for a princess...or two! Theme spaces can have so much fantasy and interest. Moroccan inspired decor gave this, otherwise dark and dreary basement, life and personality. Several living spaces divide this large space into smaller more intimate areas. The "kid's stage" has been converted to a homework area that overlooks a "majestic view of the Mediterranean" and the fire-escape windows have been hidden by scrolls of muslin painted to look like beautiful gardens. Plush seating can be enjoyed by those watching television or a fun game of pool. The closet was converted to a dry bar where snacks and refreshments can be kept for guests delighted to retreat to this oasis.
