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.”
Design Objectives:
Level up the style to suit this young family
Add bar area, desk, and plenty of storage
Include dramatic linear fireplace
Plan for new sectional
Improve overall lighting
THE REMODEL
Design Challenges:
Awkward corner fireplace creates a challenge laying out furniture
No storage for kids’ toys and games
Existing space was missing the wow factor – it needs some drama
Update the lighting scheme
Design Solutions:
Remove the existing corner fireplace and dated mantle, replace with sleek linear fireplace
Add tile to both fireplace wall and tv wall for interest and drama
Include open shelving for storage and display
Create bar area, ample storage, and desk area
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.

Riverside Construction, LLC
In the main seating area, Riverside installed an electric fireplace for added warmth and ambiance. The fireplace surround was comprised of Mannington laminate wide planks in ‘Keystone Oak’ and topped with a natural pine rough-sawn fireplace mantle stained to match the pool table. A higher contrast and bolder look was created with the dark blue ‘Indigo Batik’ accent color, blended beautifully with the softer natural materials used throughout the basement.
