Turn your basement into a family room, and watch the changes in our family life. The kids will love having a space where they can watch hang out with you, and you’ll love the many options for decorating and personalizing that a family room in the basement can give you. With just a little imaginative basement finishing, and with the help of an experienced basement remodeling contractors, you can turn your formerly dark and gloomy basement into the warm and bright heart of your home.
Your new family room will need warmer peachy colors to make up for the loss of natural light inside the basement. Forget the funky purple - dark colors will make a basement look even darker. If natural ventilation is insufficient, make provision for adequate artificial lighting. Your home theater can get away with low lighting, but your family room will have to be bright and cheerful.
Use carpets to hide unseemly bumps or irregularities in the flooring. Make sure there is plenty of storage space and lots of book shelves all around. Hanging lights are an absolute no-no because ceiling height is so limited. Consider recessed lighting that’s fitted into false ceiling to save on space.
