How to Design a Basement

The increase in square footage from a basement can add a lot of value to your home. Adding a bathroom and bedroom is especially great if you want a big return on your investment. You'll want to start your redesign by defining the areas you want to add. You can add additional bedrooms, a bathroom, a theater room, a home gym, a family room, a play room, and more. Think about the flow of traffic and storage needs.

Measure your space and divide it into zones based on what you want to add.
Create a detailed floor plan.
Add finishing touches to show how furniture will fit into the new space.
