Subterranean Style: Project #691, Basement Renovations & Finishing

In the GTA, a basement is no longer just a storage area, it is an essential extension of the home’s living space. Project #691 involved a comprehensive basement renovation and finishing project that prioritized high ceilings, moisture protection, and a versatile open-concept layout.

Foundations for Comfort

A successful basement finishing project starts with what you can’t see. For Project #691, we focused on creating a "warm floor" environment and a bone-dry foundation before any aesthetic work began.

Key technical and design highlights include:

  • Advanced Subfloor Systems: We utilized high-density dimpled membranes and insulated subflooring to provide a thermal barrier against the concrete, ensuring the space remains comfortable in every season.
  • Recessed Architectural Lighting: To combat the lack of natural light, we installed a network of high-efficiency LED pot lights, strategically zoned to create different moods for the lounge and workspace areas.
  • Custom Media Wall: A focal point of the renovation was a custom-integrated media unit with hidden wire management, designed for the ultimate home theater experience.
  • Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) Flooring: We selected premium, 100% waterproof LVP that offers the look of natural wood with the durability needed for below-grade applications.
