15 Modern and Contemporary Living Room Basement Designs

Some homes have basements and sometimes, it is hard for the homeowners to decide on what they are going to do with the space. In truth, one can do so many things with a basement. It can be a bedroom, a storage room, a play area, an entertainment area and a lot more. You can also have a family room in it as an extension of your living room. So, today, we will show you some living areas located on basements with modern and contemporary designs.

Homes with basements seem to have a space that is away from the busier areas in the house because of its location. But it can actually be a public place too if you want. It can be a perfect spot for a living room or a family room. You can enjoy your time with family and friends while in your basement especially if it is well-designed creating a cozy ambiance. What we have collated were modern and contemporary living room basements. Take a look at how beautiful they are:

Even a basement living room can actually look beautiful as long as it is designed well. When we talk about designing, every aspect of the space has to be considered to avoid a boxed feeling. Ample lighting has to be added to the basement too so that the homeowners will not be groping in the dark. Light colors are best for walls and ceilings. But adding some pops of colors will do no harm to the space and can even enhance it!
