What are the creative ways to use my loft space in Reading?

Loft conversion is a creative way to use that extra space in your house and make the most out of it to fulfill all your needs and requirements. Yes, all you need to do are some quick changes here and there and you'll be ready to convert the loft space into a space of your choice, liking and comfort.

Some fun, interesting, and creative ways to use your loft space are as follows:

  • Try converting that mini space into a visitor's bedroom or a guest bedroom -

This idea will work great if you have a small loft space. converting it into a guest bedroom would create an extremely cosy and comfortable space with the bed placement in the middle and sunshine coming through those big windows directly into the attic space. You can always switch up the color of the walls, the interior placement and so on. Using brick textured wallpapers or even some white paint can easily create a fancy vibe which actually makes the small space appear larger and cluster-free.

  • While choosing the loft design, be smart enough to decide upon the one that compliments the shape and proportions of your loft -

Most people want to copy the designs and themes that they have seen in other people's homes but they forget the fact that each loft is different on it's own and has different plus points and vice versa. Try setting it up in a way by understanding what would work best for your space and proceed accordingly.

An amazingly simple example to make you understand this point is if you have a large loft space and a friend of yours has a smaller one. Then different things would work for both. A bigger space can be converted into a luxurious bedroom with a lavish bathroom space or can even contain a small reading nook or a workspace. On the other hand, if the same things are thought to be achieved in a smaller one, it would look all clustered and would not even solve the purpose of having a cosy space. Entirely different vibes would work out both and it's you who has to make that smart decision of choosing the best design for yourself. If you are unable to figure out one for yourself, you can always go ahead and consult a trusted Loft Conversion company in your vicinity.

  • Create a cute office space in your loft -

This can be one of the most considered options while loft conversion as we are living in the times of the pandemic where social distancing and remote working has become a necessity over a choice. Having a loft-cum-office space in your home can have amazing benefits and can increase your productivity levels to unparalleled extent. Having a separate workspace and a separate living space is always a plus as it helps you figure out when to switch off and switch on and enjoy both the parts of your life equally well. Cute office space will motivate you to work much more effectively as compared to working from your bed where you can easily lose concentration because you are in the middle of the chaos of your house all the time. You can put some neutral colors into that space and some added blinds to cover up the windows and let you focus on your work completely.

  • Design a fancy walk-in wardrobe or a dressing room in your loft -

You cannot deny the fact that having your own dressing room inside of your house is not what you want. Yes, it has always been a dream of ours to feel like a celebrity and experience the luxury of having something like that for yourself. It is possible to achieve that within the loft space, where you can properly organise and put your vanity along with all the other essentials like outfits, accessories, footwear and much more. Get dressed at one place and experience the feeling you always wanted to.

  • Try covering awkward corners with some fancy interiors or simply use them up as storage spaces -

When you have a family, no matter how much storage space you have in your hands, it is always less. And using some awkward corners in your loft to convert them into extra storage spaces is win-win, both to cover the space up and solve your purpose of utilising the loft space to its best possible way.

  • Create a photo gallery room in your house -

A gallery wall is what you would have heard of, right? Buy think about having a complete room to frame your cherished moments in and relive those memories every time you miss someone or if you need that extra dose of happiness by looking at the experiences you have had and how good times always come after the bad ones. This is the easiest thing to achieve as you can paint the walls yourself whichever colour you like and set up the whole why book the place according to how you always wanted a photo gallery to be. Put all your favourite photos up on the wall in a symmetrical order and arrange them however you like.

  • Plan all options while getting the loft extension's stairs -

This can be the trickiest part as you easily maximize and minimise the space that you have within your loft conversion with the positioning and placement of the stairs. While some might consider placing the stairs as if it seems like the continuation from the ground floor to the first floor and from the first floor to the second and so on but it might not suit and workout best in all cases. Depending upon the size, structure, and the shape of your loft, you got to decide where your loft extension's stairs should be and if the door should be at the top of the stairs or at the bottom of the stairs.

  • Go ahead and create the loft as your relaxing place by converting it into your painting corner, dance corner or even a meditation corner -

You go out to these places and pay or get a membership done for the dance studios, gyms, or any other refreshment places to do the things you love and enjoy all your hobbies at least occasionally. But when you have your own space, you do not need to spend that extra money going out to avail all these services. Be creative and design your loft into a corner where you do all these activities and spend some quality me-time.

  • While thinking of loft-conversion, you can set it up as a mini-bar with private party space -

Have a large loft space and do not exactly know what to do with it? Converting it up as a lounging space or a partying space with a mini bar in it can be a great idea. It can be your own safe boozing corner or a date night corner or even a night over spot with all your friends and family. Invite them over and have an amazing time up there. Keep playing with the vibe and keep changing the setting of the place to make it even more special and unique every time guests come over.

  • Put it up as a Airbnb space -

If you have enough room to yourself and that extra space is of no use to you, then let it help you earn some cash. All you need to do is one-time investment in getting your loft conversion done properly in an aesthetically way having a Pinterest-vibe and a few photogenic spots here and there. Put it on Airbnb to invite guests to visit your place and be a loving host. Experience different cultures, meet new people, and experience the world within the comfort of your home. If you have some extra space, you can always provide them with some other amenities like a refrigerator, ironing stand, a study, and other things of that sort.

  • Do not forget to plan the exterior -

Many loft conversions have extensions which in-turn can be used in many ways, but most people make the mistake of completely ignoring them. That is not how it should be. While getting your loft conversion done, always think of how the exterior will look like with the changes being made inside, if it would need some changes to complement the property or would work fine with minimum furnishing and so on. Depending upon the kind of finish you like, different patterns and styles can be chosen to complete the look of the loft exterior. A brick wall can give it a contemporary look while a wooden look will be a classic option to go with. For newly constructed properties, going minimal with the design and furnishings is the best option to go with. And very importantly, do not try to cover the windows or other spots that let the light come into your loft as the natural light is something that brings life to your loft space.

A lot of creative things to do in your loft, choose, pick, and customise any of your liking.
