Five stylish loft conversions

Wed 17 Sep 2014 Amy @ Roller Blinds Direct

Are you planning a loft conversion? Perhaps your family is growing quickly and you need extra bedroom space, or maybe you require a study where you can get down to business without leaving the comfort of your own home.

Loft conversions are the perfect way to up-size, allowing you to avoid the hassle of finding a new place. Best of all, you can create more space for yourself and your family whilst simultaneously adding value to your home.

But it’s often tricky to decide how to decorate and fill your newfound space. Loft conversions often have awkward dimensions and sloping ceilings, and finding furniture that fits can be an arduous task. These limited spaces also have a tendency to feel dark and cramped, so carefully selected paint and lots of natural light is a must!

To help you out, we’ve taken a look at five stylish loft conversions that will surely inspire and help you when decorating your new space. Which is your favourite?

#1 – A Snug in the Sky

With an exposed roof, joists on show and a neutral palette, this loft conversion goes back to basics. We love the simplicity of this room, and though the walls and carpet are cold shades, its cosiness isn’t compromised. Statement wooden furniture and big comfy chairs warm things up, making it the perfect place for relaxing and playing with the kids.

#2 – Princess Tower

Any little girl would be delighted with this bedroom, an attic conversion that will make her feel just like Rapunzel! Again, clean white walls and a softly coloured carpet make it light and airy, but the additions of wall stencils and cute decorations ensure it’s homely. We especially like the storage ideas in this bedroom – wicker baskets slotted into asymmetric shelves is both pretty and practical!

#3 – A Lofty Retreat

Have you ever seen such a cool, cosy conversion? We thought not! This room is the epitome of attic chic; stylish daybeds, mix-and-match pouffes and splashes of turquoise amongst a neutral colour scheme make it both classic and contemporary. We love the contrasting shapes throughout, especially the geometric star light shades.

#4 – Florals on the Top Floor

Another fabulous bedroom, this conversion makes the most of sloping walls with huge velux windows and a nifty bookshelf. And who can ignore that eye-catching feature wall? A great addition to any loft conversion, the vibrant shades of this snippet of wallpaper prove a fabulous contrast to an otherwise plain palette.

#5 – Modern Heights

This loft conversion is ridiculously cool. Clean lines and quirky furniture make it the ultimate retro-modern fusion pad. Once again, this room design demonstrates that exposed structural elements are the way to go, and we’re big fans of the contrast between wooden beams and metal curtain poles.

As these five stylish loft conversions demonstrate, there are many simple yet effective ways to decorate your repurposed attic space. And here at Roller Blinds Direct, we have the perfect blinds to fit any roof windows. Take a look!
