Default Basement finishing with french drain


I am laying a new floor for my sister who has a 1 1/2" gap french drain
around 3/4 of the basement.
It is the open kind where they have drilled holes in the cinder block and
did not cover the french drain
gap. I am laying Allure flooring down and was wondering if there is
anything that I can do to dress up
the edges so that the gap and the holes dont show but are still
functional. Obviously I cannot do
molding to cover the edges of the Allure unless I somehow frame the gap
and holes but leave space
for the walls to weep. Anyone have any ideas????
