A converted loft can be a less conventional space but the quirkiness of that can often be part of the charm. There would be all sorts of different slopes and nooks and crannies that allow you to be creative with how you use all the different spaces available to you. At Loft London we have done more than our fair share of loft conversions and have put together a few ideas that you might like to think about, for your own loft conversion
There can often be striking architectural features in attics from a quirky window to a chimney breast coming up through the building, or old wooden beams, all of which you can use to give your loft conversion character.
Having enough storage is a problem that most of us face and you might think that it would be even more of a problem in a loft conversion. In actual fact sometimes the most awkward of space can be made to work for you. Try planning a cupboard in the eaves, custom made so that they fit seamlessly into the room or have a built in wardrobe made.
you can create a stylish peaceful and inspiring reading nook in your loft conversion with a squashy chair, a perfectly placed source of light like a skylight or a lamp and only the inspiration of what to read left up to your imagination.
A home office, especially as the pandemic forces more of us to work from home, has become a very popular loft conversion choice. Essential to your home office will be a good source of light and a comfortable office chair with stylish storage for your paperwork. In a loft conversion your office will be away from the rest of the house and from the distractions of family life and you can be creative with how you build your office furniture into the attic features.
When it comes to decorating your new loft conversion off whites, creams and pure whites are often a good choice. If you are having a skylight in your loft conversion you will benefit from a lot of light and keeping a neutral colour scheme throughout will enhance the space available and make the room look more light and airy.
A loft conversion bedroom is probably one of the most popular conversions and if you put a bit of thought into the decoration you can have a tranquil and beautifully relaxing space to retire to at the end of the day. Think about adding colours to the walls that are soothing and relaxing a conducive of sleep. A Velux window will offer you the opportunity to gaze at the stars as you fall asleep and let cool air circulate in the summer. Think about creating a feature wall by wallpapering one of your bedroom walls or highlighting one of the features of the room, such as an alcove or a chimney breast.
When you have a loft London conversion it can be very exciting to plan the design and be creative in decorating. Unlike the other rooms of your house whose decoration may be dictated by whatever is already there, your loft conversion is a completely blank canvas for you too work with. Talk to the design team and have certain features included and built in during the conversion. Maybe you fancy a romantic glass staircase or to highlight a feature that's in the loft already? Our team will be happy to advise and to execute your desires.
