We had two directives when designing this basement finish in Westminster, Colorado: 1) Create a warm environment the teens want to hang out in and 2) Bring the architecture of the rest of the home downstairs to make the home feel cohesive overall. With a moody but warm color palette, lots of seating for games and snacking, and a cozy TV space for watching a movie or game we accomplished goal number 1. By bringing the open maple and cable railing and stone of the upper levels downstairs, we accomplished goal number 2. We added in detailed woodwork, a showstopping bar design and lots of storage to take this basement design over the top.
