4 ways with… ATTIC BEDROOMS
There are plenty of cool options for styling this cosy space
1 EMBRACE EXPOSED BRICKWORK
Retain the original nature of an attic room by leaving the bricks exposed. It makes a stylish feature that looks especially cool in an industrial-style loft bedroom. Paint the occasional brick white as here to add interest. If your bricks aren’t in good condition, they can be repointed to restore them to glory, or try brick wallpaper.
2 CREATE CHARACTER WITH PANELLING
Relaxed New England style comes into its own in this charming attic bedroom. The white painted wood panelling and floorboards offer all-out beach-house vibes, while nautical stripes and cosy layers of mismatched patchwork textiles in a fresh apple green bring character and cheer to the attic space.
AND NOW We’ve created an en suite by splitting the bathroom in two. We’ve also refreshed the kitchen and redecorated throughout, adding lots of colour to bring the house to life.
