Finally Nestling in for Netflix Nights: How a Finished Basement Complements the Movie Reel’s Family Feel

It may be “Better Call Saul”, “Good Girls”, or something a bit nostalgic like “Cobra Kai”: we are a bit ashamed to admit that (SOME) of us are old enough to remember when you actually had to rent movies, and you were stuck with what you chose for the entire night! Streaming services have absolutely provided a new dimension to spending time with the family or plugging away inside through a snowstorm. The basement is the best place to enjoy this pastime of enjoying some of Hollywood’s best with friends or loved ones, and cheer on the good guys with glee.

True Grains Floorplan

When we huddle together as a family in the basement on Netflix night, the different tones from our recent basement finishing make a huge and incredibly welcoming difference. We can’t help but gravitate towards the “True Gains” floorplan, as it leaves the flatscreen as a focal point, with plenty of room to sprawl out with popcorn and enjoys the fire burning on into the night. Hey, remember that time that you hosted the last family Christmas and everyone wanted to see “Shrek” over and over? You can still do that here, too! In your newly finished basement!

This plan gives you the opportunity to enjoy that space properly and serves as the ideal base for enjoying the best modern cinema has to offer. Our “Modern Marvel” plan is also primed, ready, and boisterously begging for Netflix night, as all the finer things in life are blended in ideally to this room that could serve as a perfect place for a rowdy teenage bunch settling in for the evening or a couple who is ready to binge-watch a series they have been waiting for to air for months.

Nebraska Nice Floorplan

There are also so many elements woven into the “Nebraska Nice” plan that begs for the comfort of a bonding Netflix night. As Saturday mornings used to be the main event as far as cartoons, there was nothing as reassuring as knowing that your friends may be waiting later for a pickup game on the basketball court or the BMX track and that you were enjoying the safety, security, and harboring walls of the home. This is the well-spun variety of floorplan where board game nights can comfortably collide with Netflix: some of the family may be engrossed in the movie, and some could sprawl out and enjoy a rousing time of competitive fellowship together.

Netflix night has so many different unique moods: you can be anticipating the show you’ve been waiting forever for, revisiting a classic, or celebrating another successful semester while you have some downtime. Picking a downstairs remodeling company does NOT have to be like picking a poison, and we are now going to push you and yours hard to spend movie night downstairs: whether it’s in the cool comfort of the air conditioning during a Nebraska July or the warm embers of a fire during the holidays, movie night was always meant for the comfortable and tightly-knit confines of the basement.

Get comfortable, dim the lights, and give yourself a well-deserved mental break! Fiction and fanfare will always win us over as heartily as buttered popcorn and the ideal beckoning floorplan to quickly blaze through the latest whodunit or cooking show in your queue.
