We are working closely with our client, who recently bought a 1930s bungalow in North Portland, near Peninsula Park. The house has wonderful spaces and rooms upstairs, but the basement feels closed off and cramped. It definitely screams for more light!
|
Current Basement Layout - very little light, and rooms are cut off from one another |
|
Current Office |
|
Current Anteroom to Bathroom - there is very little purpose to this room |
The first phase of this project is a renovation of the basement to increase the size of the bathroom and improve its usability, make a media room out of two small spaces, increase the amount of light within the space, and improve egress. The Proposed Basement will have an open media room / wet bar, a larger bathroom with updated finishes and lots of built-in storage. There will also be separation from the utility room, where there is none currently. We will be expanding upon the existing built-in cabinetry from the office, and that will hold the new sink and countertops, as well as increased storage.
