For lighting, if you do ceiling lighting, keep the light fixtures behind where the players would stand to avoid reflective glare. If you want a light directly over the pins to work on them, put those on a separate switch. I'm going to be doing a massive basement renovation soon too. The lighting in my pin area will be swap boxes with translites in them and a few neon lights ... all behind or next to the players (sideways) to keep the glare down.
Quoted from Nokoro:Here is the downstairs layout. Your idea for a landing is right on, I think.
Or ... make the stairs go down from the other direction. It looks like you could put a door at the other side of the stair well ... or does the other side go upstairs? If you turn it around, you could also add a bar height shelf where the door was for nick-nacks. Just a thought. If you can't switch the stairs around, go with the landing idea.
