Designers transform a blank basement into a retreat
For a Modern Tudor Revival home in Pleasant Ridge that the owners purchased as a new build, GHK Design Collaborative in Birmingham turned the unfinished basement into a destination space. “When you have a blank space like that, it’s really fun for designers to create what the flow is going to be. We gave them a couple different versions. It can be fun to show clients the options and get their feedback for the best function,” says principal designer Lauren Guidry, who was part of the team. “With the renovation, they wanted a space where they could entertain or have a comfortable movie night for the two of them,” she adds. “It had to supply multiple functions with a home office and a kitchen space.” The basement already had plumbing for a bathroom. “That worked out well. We started from there and branched out,” says Guidry. A new full bath features a custom vanity and floating shelves. The tile floor has a graphic starburst pattern. “It’s nice when they have guests over. They can use that space and the office could turn into a bedroom or incorporate a Murphy bed,” she explains. A white ceiling keeps the main areas nice

Hazel Park school board leadership change looms after election loss
The balance of power and leadership on the Hazel Park school board is poised to shift in the wake of the Nov. 3 election results. While Board President Bev Hinton won reelection Nov. 3, Vice President Debra Laframboise lost her bid to stay on the board. Hinton and Laframboise have been two of four votes in the majority on the seven-member board that sought to oust the district's former superintendent and quickly installed a former Taylor Public Schools superintendent in her place without a search process. Newcomer Jason Hodgson, a parent with two children in the Oakland County district and one who graduated in 2024, won a seat on the board. He tallied the second highest number of votes in the race behind incumbent board member Monica Rattee, who has heavily criticized the board's leadership. With three seats up for election, Rattee received 24% of the vote, followed by Hodgson with about 19% and Hinton with 17%. Laframboise came in fourth with just over 16% of the vote. Hinton and Laframboise did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment. On Facebook, Hinton posted a thank you to the community. "I am so honored that you once again supported me to
