Basement Finishing & Living Space Design

Your basement is some of the most underutilized square footage in your home — and it has more potential than you might think. A finished basement can become a family hangout, a home theater, a game room, a home gym, a guest suite, or any combination of the above.

Design 1 specializes in transforming unfinished or dated lower levels into spaces that are warm, livable, and designed with the same care we bring to every room above ground. We'll help you plan the layout, choose the right materials for below-grade environments, and manage the full build — from framing and egress to flooring, lighting, and every finish in between.

The result is a home that finally fits your life — without having to leave the neighborhood you love.
