Converting the attic isn’t a necessity, but it can be a nice thing to do. It adds a little mystique to your home, making it different from many others on the market. Attic rooms have a certain sense of magic about them. Being at the top of the house, they seem to attract and collect energy like no other room. They’re great as bedrooms, games rooms and study areas.
In this post, we take a look at some dreamy attic concepts you’ll love. Check them out below.
Light And Airy Bedroom
Attic rooms should be light, airy and peaceful. And that’s exactly what you get with this dreamy concept. The bedroom, featuring a double bed suitable for two people, has a minimalist, Scandinavian feel. You can imagine this room being comfortable all year long, thanks to the radiator in the background, and the skylights which can be opened in the summer. The metal free standing lamp adds a tiny touch of luxe to the room, while the air conditioning unit banishes the discomfort of hot nights.
Open Office And Living Space
You don’t have to limit attic spaces to bedrooms, though. There are plenty of other ways you can use them. Open-plan offices is one idea. In this example, you can see that the owner has decided to keep the character of the room, but install a desk, seating area, and even printer in the room. All these features make the space look stylish and professional while conducive to work at the same time.
Keeping the exposed beams is another nice feature. These contrast nicely with the white-painted ceilings and the various pictures displayed on the walls. Many of the items here are mementos that add a welcoming element to the room. It’s the sort of place you want to work and study.
Mezzanine Roof Space
This attic concept is a reflection of the building it occupies. Here, the owner has chosen to extend the mezzanine area away from the bedroom and add a seating and working area. The entire space feels open and airy, thanks to the addition of the skylights, and the fact that the attic space is also a balcony. Cleverly, the owner has left the beams exposed, displaying the attractive structural elements of the building.
With mezzanine spaces like these, pest control is not an issue. As long as the wooden roofing construction is put together properly, nothing should be able to enter. In fact, having everything in the open like this, instead of hidden behind layers of insulation, is beneficial.
Nature-Inspired Living
Lastly, if you miss treehouses from your childhood, then this nature-inspired attic space could be just the thing to rekindle your spirit. The room features numerous organic elements, including the hanging plants above the door, various pot plants, and the glass-topped coffee table with an uncarved wood base.
Bohemian spaces like these are often only possible in the attic. You can see that the owner is able to deploy stylistic flourishes that would look out of place in many other rooms in the house.
