Best Loft Conversion Ideas for More Living Space

The loft remains unused in most houses.

One thing many homeowners dont know is that
these spaces can be converted into spacious
enclaves that can be used to solve most of the
storage and space problems in the house.

Here are the top loft conversion design ideas

Include glass and a lot of glass
6
The loft provides an excellent space where you
can have a panoramic view of the surrounding
environment.
7
If you have made a decision to use your loft as
relaxing area, consider replacing most part of
the walls into a glass so that you can have a
clear view of the out-looking space.
8
Showcase the staircase
9
You will need a special staircase into the loft.
10
The normal staircase will take too much space.
11
Instead, consider using a spiral staircase into
the loft. This way, you will use less space.
12
Frame the view
13
While designing the loft conversion in Bromley,
take into consideration the view.
14
Create an opening on the side of the loft at a
vantage point where the best panoramic view of
the surrounding environment can be achieved.
15
Position your windows strategically to face the
most scenic parts of the outdoor.
16
Make use of the original feature.
17
If the loft is made of earth bricks and timber,
retain them.
18
This serves to prevent altering the original
design of the loft which can lead to collapse
when changed.
19
Use all the space, every inch
20
Although the loft can be hard to utilize due to
the slanting nature of the roof, you can convert
every space and nook into a usable slot.
21
After youve used the large part as the bedroom,
you can make the extreme end of the slant as a
wardrobe where you can keep your folded clothes.

You can as well convert the space into safes
where you can keep your valuables.
23
Dont abandon the exterior
24
Dont make the loft fancy and neglect the
outside.
25
Consider adding the cladding to ward off the
winters cold and window frames that match with
the bricks. However, do it in moderation to
prevent creating an eyesore.
26
Install security mechanism
27
Although the loft is raised above the rest of the
house, it can be one of the easiest places where
buglers can break into because it is surrounded
by glass and roofing material rather than the
regular brick walls.
28
An intruder with a ladder or using nearby
structures can easily break into the loft unheard
and make away with your stuff. For this reason,
it is good to install burgler alarms to keep the
lofty safe.
29
Be wary of sources of fire
30
The loft has a special risk for fire outbreak
because of the flammable material used for
cladding and the general coverings placed
immediately below the tiles.
31
For this reason, consider limiting the user
devices that are likely to start fires.
32
In a nutshell, loft conversions can be really
essential in freeing more space in your house.
