When it comes to finishing your basement, there are so many ways to get a general layout for the space. So why spend money by hiring a basement designer? We’re so glad you asked!
Bright and functional basement design for a family
When you think about interior design, you often think about finishes. What color cabinetry and flooring will you have? How about the tile? We love helping to select finishes with our clients for their basement finishes and we’re just as happy to work with clients with a strong aesthetic design sense as those who say, “I have no idea what I’m doing, tell me what looks good!”. But as much as we love it, finish selections are actually a relatively small part of the overall design process for a basement finish.

At Julia Zettler Design, the end goal is to give you a space that functions for you and looks beautiful but is also buildable! Space planning is so important when finishing a basement, and with our 3D designs we can help homeowners visualize exactly how the space will function. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and thorough construction plans. We spend a significant amount of time talking with our clients about what they want in their finished basement and how they need their space to function in addition to how they want it to look before we ever start a project.
Family Game Basement Design
From the first step in our process - our detailed on-site measure - to the delivery of the final construction plans, we talk through the unique challenges each basement presents and how to design for them. Those tricky basement features - like beams, posts and ductwork - can stand out like a sore thumb if not considered as part of the overall design. Our team of designers puts thought into how to make those “can’t change ‘em” basement features make architectural sense for your space. The result is a plan that is unique to you and your family, not a cookie cutter copy of your neighbor’s basement.

Finally, after helping pick all the finishes you’ll need to help bring your basement space to life, we get to work preparing your construction documents that make the plans actually buildable allowing you to get apples to apples pricing from several different contractors to price your project. Our detailed plans are loved by contractors and homeowners alike and are part of what sets us apart from many other design firms.
