[quote=Anonymous]For my own enjoyment and with an eye of possible resale in a couple of years, I am doing a minor renovation to my rowhouse basement, which has limited natural light -- new whitish floor, white paint trim, off-white paint walls, very light wood doors, and other minor things. I like the all white look and I think I know how to make it work while avoiding the dreaded "institutional" look. Two questions: 1) Is an all-white basement the key to make it as light as possible? Are there other tricks to make it light that don't rely on paint or floor color (e.g. mirrors)? 2) Any suggestions for resale? I am not concerned if the buyer doesn't share my taste for all-white -- houses here sell in a couple of days with multiple offers, so I am sure the fact that the walls are off white and not, say, the buyer's favorite shade of canary yellow will not be a deal breaker, as that's something the buyer can easily change...[/quote]
