Our customer desired a casual contemporary basement finish, including an entertainment area, wet bar, wine cellar, bath and exercise room. Our challenge was to create a distinctive entertainment area, while dedicating 40% of the floor plan to the exercise area. A simple yet dramatic circular ceiling anchors the entertainment area, while a bold, rectilinear 'punched opening' wall system enhances circulation and defines and separates the spaces.

Applying these simple geometric forms in an asymmetrical layout creates an elegant balance between the two unconventional spaces.
