Sports-Inspired Basement

Kidspace : Episode HKID-104 -- More Projects »

Designer Val Thwing meets the athletic members of the Magner family: parents Renee and Greg, and kids Ellie (12), Quinn (9), and Cullen (6) to find out how they want to reclaim their messy basement. Right now it's dominated by a large old couch and is so cluttered its hard to tell what they have down there. The kids wish for a hard floor where they can bounce balls, a space that’s half basketball-half tennis court and Ellie would like a space of her own away from her brothers. Find out how Val designs a space ‘zoned’ for fun!

Next: After: Behind Closed Doors

The built-in shelves were a disaster zone and the old couch was doing nothing but taking up space.
