Looking Up: Transforming the Attic

The attic is often the last place people consider remodeling or designing with living space in mind. However, the attic is a wonderful spot to transform into a living area if you are planning a remodel or designing a custom home. Attic space can be used for a variety of spaces. We came across a few ideas to get you started if you are considering a remodel or designing a custom home. Take a look:

Consider using your attic space for a living room. Many traditional homes have a dining room, kitchen and formal living room on the main floor. Create a more casual living area in the attic where you can relax and enjoy a good book or the television.

While a home office is a helpful space, it can sometimes be distracting to work in the center of your home where everything is taking place. Consider using your attic space for a home office to create a better sense of privacy and efficiency.

The attic is also a wonderful area for extra storage space. Use your attic for extra closet space to keep yourself better organized. You can also use it to house seasonal items that you may not be able to wear year-round to make room in your closet.
