The basement does not have to be the “lost” site of a house or use it to accumulate junk without further ado. Most cassocks (we are talking about chalets in this case) are large enough to hold more than just a pile of junk. They have much more potential.
10 ideas of how to take advantage of this potential of your basement

2. Office at home and office. If you work from home or even if you want to have a quiet space to check your emails or your agenda, the basement may be the perfect place. If natural light is anticipated even better.
