A warm, modern basement retreat blending media, music, and cozy gathering spaces.

The brief

This inviting basement renovation brings a fresh interpretation of the home’s existing design style while introducing a warm caramel colour palette. A striking linear electric fireplace wall anchors the space, finished with floor-to-ceiling tile and framed by maple wood slat detailing and elegant sconces. Existing luxury vinyl flooring was complemented with a plush area rug to enhance comfort. Designed as a multifunctional retreat, the rec room blends media, music, and relaxation areas into a cohesive, stylish space.

Scope of Work

Design concept development, fireplace feature wall design, lighting layout, material selection, furniture sourcing, procurement, styling, and coordination with trades for installation and finishes.

Warm caramel tones, black stone tile, maple wood slats, and soft textiles create depth and contrast, while gold accents and layered lighting add warmth to the relaxed media-focused basement.
