[quote=Anonymous]The web site houzz is really useful, we are in the middle of the same process, budget about 50k to make our unfinished basement into a legal rental. I have looked at a lot of basements in our DC neighbor hood to get idea. Making the basement open as possible is key, so knock down a dividing wall and put in sliding doors. Shinny anything is also too much in small basement spaces, it just jumps out at you. Carpet, not so sure about this. I know it is warmer if there is a decent underlay, but I am leaning towards an end grain or leaving the floor with concrete and putting some different sized rugs, with underlay, all over the place. And bathroom tile, for the floor big white tiles don't work in the small room, and I don't think they look much good anywhere, try some mosaic or small tile, go up market here, you can probably afford some thing beautiful and interesting with such a small space.
