Playful Home Office - Embrace brick walls rather than drywalling over them.
A red accent wall adds the look of depth to the room and feels daring and cheerful compared to the basement's easy black and white scheme. The gallery wall features original drawings from designer Theresa Casey and her husband, Robert Gray.
Paint the walls and ceiling white to make a little basement seem bigger.
A finished basement feels more like an upstairs retreat as it's packed with numerous amazing design ideas. Floating walnut shelves, a gas fireplace with a rolled-steel encircle, and a textural shag rug are simply a couple of the elements that elevate the distance.
Hidden Guest Bed
Incorporate a guest bed into your existing layout rather than putting up new walls for another bedroom. This Murphy bed uses a suspension system which makes it feasible to lift with one finger. On each side of the queen-size bed, a niche in the wall acts as a side table and can be wired using a reading light. After the bed is folded up, homeowners Barbara and Michael Purdy utilize the freed-up space for a workout area.
Bright Laundry Room-Pinch pennies with MDF cupboards and add your trim.
H&H senior editor Meg Crossley turned into this unfinished basement laundry room to a laundry oasis. Improper venting supposed the washer and dryer had to be moved to the opposite wall, in which they're currently concealed by latching doors. Meg also included a convenient sink with a kitchen-worthy faucet, an upper shelf and lower closets for extra storage. A contractor cut door fronts out of MDF, then Meg additional Shaker trim for a custom look. To provide the basement an airy atmosphere, the area was painted white. Sico's Light Sugar (4150-11), an aged white, makes the ceilings look higher without feeling sterile or cold. The cupboards were painted robin's egg blue to get a country-inspired appearance.
