Lowry Award Winning Basement

This project took first place in the 2010 Luxury Basement for Colorado Award for Remodeling Excellence. The clients wanted a place for the family to relax, watch TV, read books and do crafts. From a flooring option standpoint they asked for stained concrete in all the areas except the bedroom, which turned out excellent.

For a cozy feel we added a gas fireplace with a stained mantle and stained bookcases. A wet bar with granite slab countertops and java stained cabinets offered a great contrasting look. A hidden bookcase door to the side of TV gives away to additional storage.

The full bathroom had subway tile walls with a custom vanity.

The craft room was designed with a sewing table and plumbed for a stackable washer and dryer unit.

This project really came to life with the homeowner's phenomenal decorating taste.

Testimonial: Archuleta testimonial - Lowry

The process was extremely rewarding. Our only regret it that we is that we didn’t do it sooner. It was a painless process and was worth every penny.

Award: 2010 CARE Award for Basement Luxury, 1st Place

The Colorado Awards for Remodeling Excellence, known as the CARE awards, are the largest and longest running contest recognizing remodeling of all types, including both commercial and residential. Categories are numerous, and include kitchens, bathrooms, green building, and much more. Unlike other HBA-sponsored design contests, CARE is open to all, not just members of the Home Builders Association of Metro Denver or its Remodelers Council. CARE awards are judged blind by local volunteers, making it a fair competition that recognizes excellence in remodeling, no matter the authorship.
