Flooring

The house originally had some cheap bamboo flooring in the kitchen area that I had removed and installed in the basement theater and hallway.  Instead, I decided to pull it up and install it as a temporary solution in the sunken area of the living room.
In doing this I also removed the last part of the step leading into the sunken area.  I pretty much just slapped the planks in there to see how it would look, they aren't installed well, just enough to make better than a semi-painted concrete floor.

I plan to take the carpet that was in there and put it in the home theater.  Never cared for the feel of wood in the basement, the carpet is nicer.  Having hardwood upstairs and carpet in the basement makes for a nice complement.
