Plywood and Concrete

(dwell magazine)

The saga of my basement continues...

What does one do with a tiny room that has a toilet and a random set of stairs to nowhere? Well, first you use it as a bathroom, though there is no sink...And it actually kind of works as a guest bath. But, it's not ideal.

Starting Point

Here you can see what I'm dealing with. Eventually that yellow shelving will be gone and the entrance won't be the hallway but right next to the stove. Where the chalkboard is.

You can also see what passed for a stove vent in the 1920's. Awesome!
