Introduction

If you're looking to add extra living space to your home, a basement suite is a great option. However, designing a functional and beautiful space can be challenging. In this article, we'll show you how to create a stunning basement suite with Coohom.

Tip 1: Consider Functionality

Before you start designing, think about how you will use the space. Will it be a guest suite, a home office, or a rental unit? Make sure to plan for adequate storage, lighting, and seating to accommodate your needs.

Tip 2: Choose the Right Flooring

Basement floors can be cold and damp, so it's important to choose the right flooring. Consider options like vinyl plank, ceramic tile, or polished concrete for a durable and moisture-resistant surface.

Tip 3: Make Use of Natural Light

Basements can be dark and gloomy, but with the right design, you can make the most of natural light. Consider adding egress windows, if possible, and use light, neutral colors to reflect light and brighten the space.

Tip 4: Use Coohom to Visualize Your Design

Coohom's 3D design software allows you to create a realistic model of your basement suite and experiment with different layouts, colors, and furniture. Use it to visualize your design before you start construction and make sure everything fits and looks great.

Tip 5: Add Personal Touches

A basement suite can feel sterile and impersonal, so make sure to add personal touches to make it feel like home. Consider adding artwork, family photos, or decorative items that reflect your style and personality.
