Are you eager to transform your basement into a truly exceptional game room? Picture brick accent walls creating a captivating ambiance, a stylish wine bar for sophisticated evenings, and ample built-in storage to house your vast collection of board games. Come along with us as we explore the remarkable features of this upscale basement in Lower Merion, PA.
One of the standout elements of this project is the captivating spiral staircase that guides you to the basement. Our aim was to preserve the home’s original charm while designing a contemporary space. We embraced this fixture and transformed it into a breathtaking focal point by incorporating wallpaper and painting the stairs in the mesmerizing shade of Egyptian Green by Benjamin Moore. The outcome? An awe-inspiring entryway that sets the tone for the remarkable finished basement.
As you enter this basement, you’ll be greeted by a stylish children’s play space that is sure to ignite their imagination. Discover a dedicated dress-up section, complete with costumes and accessories, where little ones can transform into their favorite characters. Next, explore the dedicated arts and crafts area, equipped with all the essentials for creative expression. And to keep everything tidy and organized, indulge in the convenience of built-in storage, ensuring that toys and supplies have their designated place. This playroom is a haven for fun, creativity, and endless possibilities for your little ones to explore.
Stepping beyond the enchanting play space, you’ll find yourself in the spotlighted room. Prepare to be captivated by one of the standout features of the game room: a meticulously crafted wine bar boasting a Pietra Mereno marble countertop and brick backsplash. To accentuate the marble’s natural beauty, Schrock’s Ingalis moonstone 5-piece cabinets were chosen, ensuring that the storage space remains unobtrusive. The addition of the bar and cabinets infuses an air of elegance and sophistication into the game room, creating an ideal setting for hosting unforgettable parties and entertaining esteemed guests.
To ensure durability and ease-of-maintenance, we installed luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring throughout the basement. LVP not only offers an affordable and attractive alternative to hardwood flooring, but it’s scratch-resistant, waterproof, and holds up well to heavy traffic.
The color palette of this basement plays an essential role in its aesthetics. We opted for a relaxing blend of Benjamin Moore’s little boy blue and heather blue for a classic and timeless feel. This combination creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for family gatherings, game nights, and movie marathons.
We integrated custom built-in storage to meet the unique needs of our clients. The space now features extensive shelving, cabinets, and cubbies to store hundreds of board games.
Hidden in the storage room, the functionality of this basement is further enhanced with a utility sink and an auxiliary fridge, providing convenience to organize snacks or drinks with utmost ease.
Transforming a 1930s basement into the ultimate upscale space requires expertise and creativity. The picture lights, brick walls, and marble countertop of the wine bar contribute to the industrial feel of the game room. The custom built-in storage, LVP flooring, and little boy blue and heather blue color palette complete the transformation and offer a warm and inviting space for families to unwind and have fun.
