Lauren Maroney for Ethan Allen Sterling, VAWhen my long-time clients were ready to start their full basement remodel project, they came to me with a clear vision of what the finished design would look like. Rich textures, dramatic colors, and luxe finishes create a modern yet elegant entertaining space.
Signature Design InteriorsWith a listing price of just under $4 million, this gorgeous row home located near the Convention Center in Washington DC required a very specific look to attract the proper buyer.
The home has been completely remodeled in a modern style with bamboo flooring and bamboo kitchen cabinetry so the furnishings and decor needed to be complimentary. Typically, transitional furnishings are used in staging across the board, however, for this property we wanted an urban loft, industrial look with heavy elements of reclaimed wood to create a city, hotel luxe style. As with all DC properties, this one is long and narrow but is completely open concept on each level, so continuity in color and design selections was critical.
The row home had several open areas that needed a defined purpose such as a reception area, which includes a full bar service area, pub tables, stools and several comfortable seating areas for additional entertaining. It also boasts an in law suite with kitchen and living quarters as well as 3 outdoor spaces, which are highly sought after in the District.

Monical DesignThe basement was so long and narrow, we needed to have multiple groupings that served as additional conversation areas. A second tv is mounted between the sitting area and the bar for additional viewing choices. The stairway walls were opened using glass panels in between the existing supportive stud wall.
Liv Companies LLC Design + BuildWe transformed an old dingy basement into a kids playroom. The design concealed the plumbing lines and mechanicals to create clean formal architectural elements to store lots and lots of toys, and define specific play areas.
Wallace Home Design CenterWe took this attic space and turned it into a modern, fun and cozy living and sleeping space. Built in sofa and bed along with custom cushion and throw pillows. Tables added to each piece. Beautiful area rug on painted flooring to warm the space up. Custom design, built and upholstered benches. Modern coffee table with metal blinds on windows. Hanging lights along with side lights to soften the space for a cozier look.

Signature Design InteriorsSignature Design Interiors enjoyed transforming this family’s traditional basement into a modern family space for watching sports and movies that could also double as the perfect setting for entertaining friends and guests. Multiple comfortable seating areas were needed and a complete update to all the finishes, from top to bottom, was required.
A classy color palette of platinum, champagne, and smoky gray ties all of the spaces together, while geometric shapes and patterns add pops of interest. Every surface was touched, from the flooring to the walls and ceilings and all new furnishings were added.
One of the most traditional architectural features in the existing space was the red brick fireplace, accent wall and arches. We painted those white and gave it a distressed finish. Berber carpeting was replaced with an engineered wood flooring with a weathered texture, which is easy to maintain and clean.
In the television viewing area, a microfiber sectional is accented with a series of hexagonal tables that have been grouped together to form a multi-surface coffee table with depth, creating an unexpected focal point to the room. A rich leather accent chair and luxe area rug with a modern floral pattern ties in the overall color scheme. New geometric patterned window treatments provide the perfect frame for the wall mounted flat screen television. Oval table lamps in a brushed silver finish add not only light, but also tons of style. Just behind the sofa, there is a custom designed console table with built-in electrical and USB outlets that is paired with leather stools for additional seating when needed. Floor outlets were installed under the sectional in order to get power to the console table. How’s that for charging convenience?
Behind the TV area and beside the bar is a small sitting area. It had an existing metal pendant light, which served as a source of design inspiration to build upon. Here, we added a table for games with leather chairs that compliment those at the console table. The family’s sports memorabilia is featured on the walls and the floor is punctuated with a fantastic area rug that brings in our color theme and a dramatic geometric pattern.
We are so pleased with the results and wish our clients many years of cheering on their favorite sports teams, watching movies, and hosting great parties in their new modern basement!
