No one ever wanted to be in this creepy basement...

Space planning includes bar and lounging areas, generous storage behind the barn door and more storage behind the under-stair wall which also features a TV and biofuel fireplace.

Featuring refrigeration, wine rack and storage.

Additional storage, built-in microwave and work space. Pocket door to the left opens to reveal a new powder room .

Bar and counter height entertainment space will be wrapped in recycled mushroom boards.

Metal studs preferable to wood in any moist basement setting.

The walls begin to define the newly created space.

Recycled from Chester County mushroom farms. We will use them to wrap the bar and create the barn door.

Vinyl plank flooring replicates the feeling of wood, but is much more practical for this application. The stairs, featuring new treads stained to match the flooring and new paintable risers, prove very pleasing to all members of the household!

A biofuel fireplace is built under the stairs. Recycled bricks from a factory in Massachusetts line the firebox. Biofuel fireplaces do not require venting so are perfect for this application. And as a bonus they throw some serious heat.

More dimmable LEDs wash the recycled brick over the sink area.

Mushroom boards on the face of the bar are washed in dimmable LED light. Recycled brick on the back wall creates a rustic industrial vibe. Mercury glass pendants complete the design.

A new egress window adds plenty of natural light while meeting the code requirements for this safe and cozy family retreat.
