Sometimes attics have some full-height walls, so there can not be room for a shower. If you Aore always eager to stand in a room, however, why not install a bathroom in the attic instead? The glass wall here is ideal for creating a sense of space while separating the bathroom and the small closet along the same wall is perfect for storing towels and bedding.

Divide and store
When space is at a premium, try to build a wardrobe to 90 degrees from the wall to create a room divider two-in-one, as here. This cabinet was built halfway up, giving a feeling of space and allow natural light to reach all areas of the room.
You could build a full height drive, so storage space is needed, however, and add a rolling library ladder for access to the upper cabinets.

Go to measurement
Optimize each corner of your loft space with custom joinery. Really think about what you want to use the space and cabinets and drawers built to your needs. Is bags, spare bedding or clothes everyday that you want to store?
When the roof comes down, you, Äôll have more space at the bottom than the top. One way to get the most out of this is to ask your carpenter to build deep drawers or pull-boxes on wheels to the items you donate, AOT use often.

Play with heights
Be creative with your access to a mezzanine level. Whether it is for an adult or a child room, AOS, you can have fun with ladders and even a climbing wall. I love the addition of these colorful climbing holds, for recreation and for cosmetic purposes.
It would be wise to add a barrier if the mezzanine will be used as a bed, even if, like it, AOS quite a long way to fall!
