Layman Playroom


We renovated this small basement in Marietta, Georgia. Lacking any aesthetic charm or organization, this basement space was a collection point for household debris. The client knew there was hidden potential down there. We masked a flush-mounted electrical panel with a small built-in, designed to be finised in chalkboard paint. We created a built-in desk for scribbling. There isn't really a 'Before' picture, but just think: "cardboard boxes, bikes, dark corners".

The completed playroom suprised everyone! The client picked the color, which brought the drywall to life. Carpet warmed up the room and the new drop ceiling defined the whole space. Now the former storage area is complete with new lighting, closets, built-in furnitue, cable/power, a safer garage door, and an oak handrail. All of a sudden "deadend" space became a very livable space!
