Over the years I've spent a fair amount of time in pubs, poker rooms, parlors and everything in between. In that time, I noted many common characteristics found in my favorite spots. I started cataloging these ideas for what I would someday want in a pub of my own. After years of collecting ideas, along comes a Google product called Sketchup and I now had an limitless platform to layout my concepts. Starting with a blank page and over the next 5 years, I created a 3D rendering of what I wanted The Basement to look like.
