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.

Chic. Moody. Sexy. These are just a few of the words that come to mind when I think about the W Hotel in downtown Bellevue, WA. When my client came to me with this as inspiration for her Basement makeover, I couldn’t wait to get started on the transformation. Everything from the poured concrete floors to mimic Carrera marble, to the remodeled bar area, and the custom designed billiard table to match the custom furnishings is just so luxe! Tourmaline velvet, embossed leather, and lacquered walls adds texture and depth to this multi-functional living space.

This walkout basement was in need of minimizing all of the medium oak tones and the flooring was the biggest factor in achieving that. Reminiscent Porcelain tile in Reclaimed Gray from DalTile with gray, brown and even a hint of blue tones in it was the starting point. The fireplace was the next to go with it's slightly raised hearth and bulking oak mantle. It was dropped to the floor and incorporated into a custom built wall to wall cabinet which allowed for 2, not 1, TV's to be mounted on the wall!! The cabinet color is Sherwin Williams Slate Tile; my new favorite color. The original red toned countertops also had to go. The were replaced with a matte finished black and white granite and I opted against a tile backsplash for the waterfall edge from the high counter to the low and it turned out amazing thanks to my skilled granite installers. Finally the support posted were wrapped in a stacked stone to match the TV wall.

This Mountain home design was re-envisioned for a lakefront location. A series of bay windows on the rear of the home maximizes views from every room. Elegant living spaces continue on the lower level, where a sizable rec room enjoys abundant windows, a fireplace, wet bar, and wine cellar tucked away by the stairs. Three large bedrooms, two with patio access, and three full bathrooms provide space for guests or family.
