In this post, a trusted basement remodel expert, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Ogden, shares helpful remodeling ideas for your upcoming projects.
Open Concepts Are Still Popular
The open concept has been a staple in home design for years. Traditionally, living spaces were closed off from each other and divided by walls. But having an open concept opens up these walls to create an obstruction-free space that allows you to navigate freely through your home.
This concept can also be applied to a basement remodeling project. Having an open-concept basement maximizes the floor area and encourages community. You could have multi-purpose spaces in your basement that seamlessly blend together: from the hobby space, to the bar, to the theatre room or the family lounge area and so on.
Even if you have a small basement, the open-concept layout fully utilizes the limited space without taking away space to create walls. If you choose this design, the additional light and space will give you more freedom to create your own personal haven.
Make It an Extension of Your Home
Since the basement isn’t an area that is easily visible, it gives you a lot of freedom when you’re choosing a design style. You can feel free to go with bold and daring choices that you wouldn’t use in main living areas. However, many homeowners are considering the basement to be an extension of the main living space. If you descend from the main level into the basement, the finishes, colors and style remain the same. It feels like it’s a continuation of the house.
