What do you do if your basement isn't large enough? Modern life requires more room to live and additional space for storage, and many people who have older homes are at a loss for the extra space. Lots were small when many houses were built, and it often isn't possible to add a room onto the back. Therefore, a lot of times the only way to go to enlarge the space in your home is down. By having a larger basement space dug under your house and putting in poured walls to carry the weight of the house, you can expand your living space a great deal. Of course, this process is expensive, so you might be wondering if there are any less expensive ways to make more space in your basement.
Maybe all you need to do is to utilize the space you have better. If possible, move your laundry room upstairs. It will be more convenient for family use, and you'll be able to use the space for something else, like an extra bathroom. You can also try removing partitions that someone has erected over the years in order to give your basement a more spacious appearance. Use of light colors, which can be done with white walls and light-colored floors and furnishings, can also give your basement a larger look. And don't forget to add some windows for more light if possible as well as a wall of mirrors which will work to open up the space even more..
Glass Floating Shelves
Having plumbing pipes and ductwork tucked in between floor joists instead of hanging down into the room can open up more head room which will create the illusion of added space. If part of your basement is nothing but a crawl space, use that area for storage if possible. It won't hurt a bit to put things you seldom use into this area as long as it's dry and you can reach the space from somewhere inside your home or add a bulkhead for outside access. Nothing is more depressing than a dark, dingy cellar. Even if you don't add an inch of floor space, you can use any of these techniques to enhance the space you have making people believe it is larger than it really is.
