Attic bedrooms: observe the space<\/h2>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

Before starting the design of the bedroom, it is good to observe the space available<\/strong>. As a rule, attics are characterized by the presence of the sloping roof<\/strong>, so the peculiarity of these rooms is to have spaces with high ceilings and others with lower ceilings<\/strong>. They also generally have higher heights than the norm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Once the space has been analyzed, you can move on to design, following our useful tips.<\/p>\n\n

Tips for decorating the attic bedroom.<\/h2>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

Furnishing an attic bedroom can be a breeze, but sometimes it can turn into quite a puzzle. Being able to evenly distribute spaces can be difficult, but by dividing the room into the three basic areas<\/strong> (sleeping, study\/play, storage) you can solve the puzzle and find the right layout.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

But before analysing individual spaces, let’s focus on the choice of colors<\/strong>, a key aspect of decorating all rooms in the house.<\/p>\n\n

The choice of colors<\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

The attic room is often not very bright<\/strong> because the openings to the outside are represented by skylights<\/strong> that cast a vertical light<\/strong>. In dimly rooms, it is preferable to choose light and illuminating colors, such as white<\/strong>. Of course, we are not talking about making a total white room, after all, we are always making the children’s room! So you can mix colors by, for example, inserting colorful carpets, or fun wallpaper<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

In short, white and light colors are the background, but accents of bright colors should not be missing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Where to place the wardrobe<\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

The wardrobe<\/strong> is undoubtedly the element that requires the most space<\/strong>. Therefore, it is ideal to place it in the highest part of the room<\/strong>. If possible, it is good to be able to position it so that the wall always has the same height, to avoid oversizing<\/strong>. If the room does not allow this, of course, you can resort to oversizing<\/strong>. Scandola Mobili makes solid wood wardrobe that follow the slope of the roof for truly customized furniture<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

In small spaces such as those in the attic, it is good to opt for a wardrobe with sliding doors<\/strong> rather than one with hinged doors, thus avoiding the clutter of doors when open.<\/p>\n\n

If you need more storage space<\/strong> – with children, it’s never enough! You can take advantage of the lower parts of the roof to make storage units with drawers<\/strong>. This way you make use of a space that is difficult to use and find room for the thousand toys of the little ones.<\/p>\n\n

The bed<\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

The position of the bed can also be found in the part where the roof is lowered<\/strong>. The minimum height of the roof to be able to position the cot is 140 cm<\/strong>, so it is easy to use for children and young people without the risk of a knock on the head. <\/p>\n\n

In the attic bedroom, attention must also be paid to the position of the bed in relation to the skylights<\/strong>. In fact, it is good not to place the bed just under the opening<\/strong> because it is less isolated than the rest of the roof, and can therefore turn colder in winter and warmer in summer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

As seen above, the mansards can also have a higher height than normal, so why not use it with a bunk bed or loft solutions<\/strong>? Ideal especially for large families<\/strong>, they can be well adapted to the attic. <\/p>\n\n

The study area<\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

Ideal for the study area would be a location under a window so that it receives natural light<\/strong>. The desk, easily made to measure, can also be placed in the area where the roof begins to descend since it is used while sitting<\/strong>. In any case, the fundamental aspect is that it receives enough natural light and that it is not placed in a corner that conveys the idea of closed and prison if not the concentration fails<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
