With several basement design ideas to choose from, you can turn a wasted and abandoned basement into something exciting and useful place in the house. A basement design doesn't have to be costly and difficult. All you need is careful planning and a little creativity. Here are some ideas that you can use in remodeling that useless basement.

Design Options For Your Basement

You can turn your basement into a home office. With the number of Internet-based jobs growing these days, people are increasingly finding it more convenient and cost-efficient to have an office in the house. The basement is a perfect place for this because it is quiet downstairs. A table, some chairs a computer with Internet connection, a telephone line and some cabinets are basically the things that you need.

You can also choose to make a home theater out of your basement. This basement design is among the most popular these days, considering the availability of reasonably priced LCD flat screens available in the market now. A spacious movie/TV room complete with large speakers and cozy chairs will be a wonderful experience for the entire family and friends.

You may decide to make your home theater basement to double as arcade room. Just place a pool or ping pong table and some game machines in one corner away from the LCD screen. This works best in spacious basement.

Spare Room For The Guest

For small houses, basement can be made into a guest bedroom. A guest bedroom in the basement can free up the rooms upstairs for exclusive family use. But as a matter of course you have to construct a toilet and bath in the basement if you want to convert into a guest bedroom.

In any of these designs, all the basic elements in basement construction should still be applied. Of prime consideration are ventilation, heating and cooling features, drainage, sewage and lighting.

Whatever basement design you will choose for your basement, you might have to consider subdividing it to maximize space. You can add some movable dividers instead of constructing permanent walls for mobility and flexibility. Depending on the design, you can install glass panels to make your basement appear wider. As mentioned earlier, designing your basement for comfort and utility all boils down to creativity.
