33 Attic Room Ideas and Designs

Written By Glenn Prescot

The attic space is way too underrated and often undeservedly overlooked as a living area. It is that one extra room in our homes that we tend to neglect and use solely for storage purposes. That is a shame because the attic is in fact a one of a kind part of the house that usually comes with vaulted ceilings, beautiful wood beams and great skylights and dormers. Designing therefore your attic room with modern or classic/traditional styles will result in another extra usable space in your home.

Designing and furnishing the attic space could be a challenge, mainly due to the sloping walls and tight corners, but with just a little creativity and enthusiasm your average attic room can be remodeled into the jewel of the house.

There are so many uses that an attic room can be put into. It could be the additional bedroom that you have always needed for your kids, guests or even for yourself. Or it may be your own little home office – a private place to go to concentrate and get some work done, or a hideaway when in need of peace and quietness.

A home owner cannot possibly say no to an extra bathroom, especially one with fancy fixtures and a bathtub for a spa-like experience. An extra living room is also an option – an entertainment area with a flat TV and a large sofa will definitely come in handy one of these days. Or how about a whole party room with plenty of free space for dancing and some comfy lounge chairs to relax in?

The possibilities are endless. Here are 33 creative attic room ideas to start with (modern, traditional, classic styles etc).
