Hall Design Build was called on by Laura Bloom, of Home Expressions Interiors, to be the general contractor on this Duluth basement remodel. During the three-month project, the team added a kitchen and bar, enlarged the gym, finished and upgraded the media room and upgraded the HVAC systems. Peach State Building Consultants addressed structural changes for the new floor plan, and MODA Floor & Interiors installed new floors throughout. In the media room, can and spot lighting were added, the slab plumbing was relocated to allow for a sink drain in the bar and the HVAC and plumbing lines were relocated to make way for taller ceilings. In the gym, lighting was added along with a tray ceiling, audio systems and mirrored walls.

Belinda Giddons, of Outrageous Interiors, called on WallsTreat Studio to complete this Duluth teen’s bedroom. The teen requested bold designs and bright colors while still keeping it girly. First, Giddons selected a grouping of fun fabrics in brilliant colors for the linens and accessories. Not wanting to stop there, she asked Kass Wilson, of WallsTreat Studio, to create a fun accent wall that would complement the fabrics and tie in with the adjoining bathroom to add color and drama. The result is a fun and youthful bedroom filled with bold splashes of color and excitement… and a very happy teenager that loves her new room.

Terri Ervin, of Decorating Den Interiors, designed this sleek, sophisticated contemporary dining room. Ervin incorporated items the homeowner already had, including a new shag rug, an original piece of art and a glass tabletop, which was outfitted with a new table base. To add variety, Ervin used a banquette on one side of the dining table and changed the fabrics on the end chairs. At the request of the homeowner, Ervin selected a sideboard to fit the small space. New drapery panels are hung outside the bay window to take advantage of the wall height, and pops of red were used around the room to bring everything together.
