Industrial design often exposes features that most try to conceal. Industrial spaces are raw and include metal accents, exposed brick or stone, and heavy fixtures. While more masculine by design, industrial features can pair with contemporary or transitional spaces for subtle softness.

The basement’s current grid design allows and welcomes frequent change by separating the three spaces. The goal was to provide our clients with adaptable rooms that can grow and change with them. 

A man cave is an ideal spot for hardworking homeowners to reap the benefits of their practice. We included an operational minibar to destress after long days, a billiard table for late-night hangs, and a pull-down projector to watch the big game.
