Inspirational Ideas for Your Loft Conversion

Last month, we discussed how loft-conversions are one of the most cost-effective changes you can make to your house without planning permission. Building up into the loft is not only a cost friendly way of adding more space, however; a loft conversion can completely transform the home environment. We’ve listed a few of our favourite inspirational designs for your future loft conversion.

 

Bespoke Shower ensuite

Using the sloping roof in your loft to your advantage can create a beautiful bespoke shower ensuite. This conversion uses the velux window for added natural light, whilst the sloping roof provides enough headroom for a large walk-in shower.

The platform for the bath and neutral colour scheme adds to the impression of luxury and space, giving this conversion a tranquil feel.

 

Split level

If you have plenty of space in the loft, you can be more creative with your designs by creating a split level space, creating the effect of a room with dual purpose.

For example, a study and living area combination works great with a defining split level design, allowing family members to enjoy the new space together – without it feeling too cramped.

 

Home office

A loft conversion makes a great home office, allowing you to focus in the peace and quiet away from the main household. Use nooks created by the roof eaves to store your desk, ensuring there is still enough headroom for you to stand. You can also position the desk in front of a window, using the space either side as storage shelving. This utilises the whole wall, whilst also providing you with a better view and natural light for while you work.

 

Bedroom

Converting the loft into an added bedroom is a popular choice, particularly for families in need of more space and looking to add more value to their home.

The characteristic charm given to an attic room via the sloping ceiling creates a peaceful space, while the split floor here adds a level of privacy to separate the bed from a seating area. Keeping the colour scheme light with rustic wooden floors gives the room a beachy, relaxed feel – perfect as a guest or master bedroom.

 

Storage space

Having extra storage space is another great benefit of loft conversions, so having bespoke storage containers built for your space is the best way forward. Fitted wardrobes can be designed to slot under eaves or awkward spaces, utilizing all available space in the conversion. Likewise, bespoke shelves and units can be made for low walls or angled ceilings, providing your room with lots of added space and a unique finish.
