The main concern for basement layouts is the space. Firstly, space in the basement is often limited, and can also be dark. Therefore you must think big – go for open spaces. Consequently, this lets natural light filter into the whole area creating an impression of spaciousness. As the additional decor idea, we offer Japanese shoji style custom window covers to give your basement privacy and very stylish look.

If the rooms are designed for activities that require quiet and concentration –home office or privacy of guest room then you could opt for our custom built doors that let the natural light through. On the other hand, consider a more open layout for a game or entertainment room.

Basements often have structural constraints that you’ll have to incorporate or find a way around. For instance, there are probably low ceilings, pipes or technical equipment may be visible. Consequently, you need to be aware of these constraints before starting work.
