Attic Spaces

Posted: 22 Jun 2012 08:06 AM PDT

No longer deemed as dark and dingy storage spaces that time forgot, attic spaces are now utilized as valuable extensions of the modern home. However, the tricky ceiling angles and variable wall heights can still perplex a homeowner as to the best way to achieve a practical and stylish layout, so we have put together a selection of the best designs which cover an entire spectrum of uses.

Attics are commonly harnessed as extra sleep space, and they do indeed make great bedrooms for either children or adults; a small child shouldn't have too much trouble living with a slightly reduced ceiling height, and a floor hugging platform bed can provide the perfect dimensions under low sloping eaves, ensuring an adults head doesn't meet a ceiling beam with a bump each morning!

Dropped ceilings can often spark more interesting layout ideas; a cozy snug can be formed with low slung television cabinets and dipped seating, and built-in desks can make an ideal study area out of an awkward bulkhead.

Open shelving can be stepped to accommodate the climbing angle of the perimeter for an attractive and practical use of corner spaces.
