Basement update
Transitional Home Bar, Omaha
This walkout basement was in need of minimizing all of the medium oak tones and the flooring was the biggest factor in achieving that. Reminiscent Porcelain tile in Reclaimed Gray from DalTile with gray, brown and even a hint of blue tones in it was the starting point. The fireplace was the next to go with it's slightly raised hearth and bulking oak mantle. It was dropped to the floor and incorporated into a custom built wall to wall cabinet which allowed for 2, not 1, TV's to be mounted on the wall!! The cabinet color is Sherwin Williams Slate Tile; my new favorite color. The original red toned countertops also had to go. The were replaced with a matte finished black and white granite and I opted against a tile backsplash for the waterfall edge from the high counter to the low and it turned out amazing thanks to my skilled granite installers. Finally the support posted were wrapped in a stacked stone to match the TV wall.
