Revitalising Unused Space

A Family-Focused Renovation Success

Our team recently completed an exciting transformation project for our clients, a professional couple with high school-aged children. The family's home had a largely unutilised lower level that held immense potential. Our mission was to convert this neglected space into a vibrant, multi-functional area tailored to the family's needs and lifestyle.

The project scope encompassed a complete remodel of the existing lower level, creating a spacious rumpus room for the teenagers, a modern combined bathroom and laundry, and two dedicated study areas. From the outset, we collaborated closely with our clients to optimise the layout and ensure the best possible use of space.

The centrepiece of the renovation is the expansive rumpus room, designed as a haven for the teens. We installed durable, stylish flooring and applied a fresh coat of paint in neutral tones, providing a versatile backdrop for the family's personal style. The room now serves as a perfect spot for gaming, movie nights, or simply hanging out.

Adjacent to the rumpus area, we created a combined bathroom and laundry space that seamlessly blends functionality with contemporary design. The bathroom features modern Reece fixtures, including a sleek vanity and a generously sized shower. We selected high-quality tiles that not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also offer practicality for a busy family space. The laundry area, integrated within the same room, boasts ample storage and work surfaces, streamlining household chores.

A key aspect of the renovation was the creation of dedicated study areas. These spaces provide quiet, focused environments for the children to tackle their schoolwork, complete with ample lighting. The study's design promotes concentration while maintaining a sense of openness to the main living area.

Throughout the renovation, we paid meticulous attention to the electrical requirements of the new layout. This included the crucial task of relocating the switchboard, which we executed in collaboration with certified electricians to ensure compliance with all safety regulations.

The transformation extended beyond mere aesthetics. We installed new Gyproc walls and ceilings, enhancing insulation and providing a polished finish. Our choice of materials and fixtures was guided by a commitment to durability and ease of maintenance, crucial factors for a space designed for family use.

As the project neared completion, the Andersons' excitement was palpable. The once-neglected lower level had been reborn as a multifunctional space that not only met their practical needs but exceeded their expectations in terms of style and comfort.

The final reveal showcased a stunning metamorphosis. The rumpus room, bathroom and study areas now form a cohesive, inviting space that caters to every family member's needs. Flooded with natural light and boasting a fresh, contemporary feel, the renovated lower level offers the perfect blend of functionality and style.

This project underscores our commitment to delivering high-quality, bespoke renovations that truly transform living spaces. By reimagining the lower level of the Anderson home, we've not only added significant value to the property but also created a space that will adapt to the family's changing needs in the years to come. The Andersons now have a home that fully utilises its potential, providing them with the perfect environment for work, study, and relaxation.
