Basement Finishing
Basement Finishing | Minneapolis & St. Paul
There is nowhere else in the home that experiences as much ‘design freedom’ as the basement! The basement of our home is often our bonus space, free to be utilized in a way that best suits our needs and preferences. This is where creativity shines! Whether you want to create a place for the family to hang-out, the perfect room for entertaining, or a personal oasis, we love helping transform basement spaces from an after-thought to a favorite extension of the home.
A True Design Partnership
When you work with Che Bella Interiors, we’ll begin by sitting down to discuss all aspects of your basement space, starting with questions about how you wish to use your basement and what features you had in mind. From there, we’ll share our expertise with you, bringing ideas and suggestions regarding what might best reflect your wishes for the space. With a general concept in place, we’ll develop concept plans/layouts and once a final plan is in place, we’ll work with our trade partners to gather bids and estimates and provide full-service implementation and project management. Once the basement finishing work is complete, we’ll take your project through the final steps, helping you with design and furnishing decisions that help showcase and highlight the beautiful work that has been done.
Spaces Where Beauty Meets Function
At Che Bella Interiors, we’ve pretty much done it all when it comes to basement finishing. From a family-friendly entertaining space complete with built-in bar and a hidden brewing room to a zen-inspired home theater room and wet-bar to a whole basement finishing with Irish roots, we help homeowners create spaces that are beautiful, stylish, and functional.

our process
Each project begins with a meeting to understand your goals and expectations. We want to better understand who you are and what the space needs to do for you and your family. We will discuss project location, goals, budget, time frame, etc.
The Letter of Agreement is a written confirmation that outlines the overall project scope and design fees. After the initial interview we meet in person to present the Letter of Agreement, and answer any additional questions you may have. Once the agreement is finalized we collect the design retainer and get busy working on your design plan.
Our team will create design solutions that meets your needs and showcases your personal style. This may include detailed space plans, furniture plans, elevations and sketches. This phase also includes providing recommendations for finishes, materials, furnishings, fabrics, lighting, and more. After we finish gathering all the right variables for your project we meet with you to review the plans and material recommendations. We then finalize your design drawings so we can move to the next phase of the design process.
During the design documentation phase we detail out all of the drawings so everyone understands the overall design intent and so we can gather accurate bids from our necessary trade partners. This may include specifying all finishes and fixtures to include flooring, countertops, wall treatments, lighting, cabinetry, hardware, etc.
This is where all the details and planning come to life! If necessary, we create an overall schedule/timeline for the implementation of your project. We coordinate and work closely with each trade partner and are available to answer any and all questions as the remodeling phase unfolds. Following construction, we coordinate the delivery and installation of your new furnishings, accessories and artwork.
We value each and every one of our clients and their project and strive for superior customer service. We complete projects with the utmost attention to detail and work hard to create a seamless design process that is interactive and enjoyable.
