Bright & cheery playroom creates a wonderful playplace for the kiddos! You'd never know this is in the basement! Pennant banner was hung to create a focal point on the odd space between the windows. The arts & crafts area in the back provides a nice little nook for coloring and drawing. Tons of toy storage from the Wayfair cabinet & IKEA Expedit bookcase. The floor was laid on a diagonal to create a feeling of even more space and to add visual interest. Photo by: Woodland Road Design, LLC

A new gas fireplace is ideal to help heat the area and reduce humidity. It also is safe and gives charm to a space. We also built in storage for the children's toys. This can easily be converted for more adult storage once the children are older.

Neil Kelly Company

The homeowners had a very specific vision for their large daylight basement. To begin, Neil Kelly's team, led by Portland Design Consultant Fabian Genovesi, took down numerous walls to completely open up the space, including the ceilings, and removed carpet to expose the concrete flooring. The concrete flooring was repaired, resurfaced and sealed with cracks in tact for authenticity. Beams and ductwork were left exposed, yet refined, with additional piping to conceal electrical and gas lines. Century-old reclaimed brick was hand-picked by the homeowner for the east interior wall, encasing stained glass windows which were are also reclaimed and more than 100 years old. Aluminum bar-top seating areas in two spaces. A media center with custom cabinetry and pistons repurposed as cabinet pulls. And the star of the show, a full 4-seat wet bar with custom glass shelving, more custom cabinetry, and an integrated television-- one of 3 TVs in the space. The new one-of-a-kind basement has room for a professional 10-person poker table, pool table, 14' shuffleboard table, and plush seating.

The owners wanted to add space to their DC home by utilizing the existing dark, wet basement. We were able to create a light, bright space for their growing family. Behind the walls we updated the plumbing, insulation and waterproofed the basement. You can see the beautifully finished space is multi-functional with a play area, TV viewing, new spacious bath and laundry room - the perfect space for a growing family.

Sellwood-Moreland Basement Remodel - Basement Living Room View

Kraft Custom Construction

This basement remodel held special significance for an expectant young couple eager to adapt their home for a growing family. Facing the challenge of an open layout that lacked functionality, our team delivered a complete transformation. The project's scope involved reframing the layout of the entire basement, installing plumbing for a new bathroom, modifying the stairs for code compliance, and adding an egress window to create a livable bedroom. The redesigned space now features a guest bedroom, a fully finished bathroom, a cozy living room, a practical laundry area, and private, separate office spaces. The primary objective was to create a harmonious, open flow while ensuring privacy—a vital aspect for the couple. The final result respects the original character of the house, while enhancing functionality for the evolving needs of the homeowners expanding family.

This was an unfinished basement. The homeowner was able to pick out their materials for the most part. We assisted in some other material selections and were able to help design the overall look and get the vision implemented.
