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.
Work Those Fats Out
If you and your family go to the gym, a basement workout room may be your best option. Tread mills, weights and other gym equipments and machines are becoming more available at cheaper prices these days. But while you can create your own gym at the basement, continue hiring the services of fitness experts in monitoring your workout progress.
If parties and other social gatherings are a common event in the house, the basement can be converted into a bar, or an entertainment room, especially if there's not enough room upstairs. Parties can be held in the basement even late at night without ever disturbing the rest of the house. You can convert a corner into a mini-kitchen to confine all party activities in the 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.
