sement Remodel


This Mid-Century Modern home was updated to enhance entertaining and family space while preserving its original aesthetic. A low ceiling, large soffit, and narrow layout posed design challenges. To complement the era, contrasting wood tones and natural stone were used. The original fireplace remained, with custom cherry cabinetry adding function. The soffit was wrapped in Alder, and a Tongue & Groove Cherry ceiling with Alder beams enhanced the architecture. A fireplace nook, dry bar, and updated guest room with a Murphy bed created a cohesive, multi-use space that respects the home's history.
