Attic bedrooms: ideas for your dream attic
Furnishing a bedroom in the attic means creating a romantic and inviting space for sleeping.
Furnishing the attic transforms a space that we thought was small and cramped, designed only to store suitcases, seasonal clothes and old forgotten items, into a dream bedroom.
In fact, the bedroom should be the most intimate and relaxing room in the house. And what environment could be more remote from everything else than the attic?
Additionally, pitched roofs are perfect for providing a romantic and relaxing space.

Ideas for dream bedrooms in the attic
Carving out an attic bedroom isn’t as difficult as it seems if you know how. Sometimes you just need to browse the internet and find the right inspiration.
Attic bedroom with walk-in closet
Let's start with the wardrobe, which is good to measure in the attic, especially if it is placed against a sloping wall.
Why not create a walk-in closet in your attic, which is everyone's dream?
It can be achieved with a plasterboard wall, in the attic there must be a higher space with a sloping side where we can place a low cabinet or a drawer for shoes, while on the other side it can stand.
Attic open space bedroom
If the ceiling is wide, you can create a nice open space with a built-in wardrobe, a sleeping area and a sofa corner with a TV. Or a small office where you can work from home with a desk where you can place a PC.
The important thing is to divide the areas well between them and leave room for movement between them so that the environments remain separate from the field of view.
Friendly and relaxing atmosphere
To create a welcoming and familiar atmosphere, natural materials and soft colors with warm tones can be preferred. Wood, wicker, rattan surrounded by the prevalence of white broken by some colorful tones such as peach or pink. Green light for soft pillows, warm blankets and fluffy rugs.
Total white
Attics can be a dark environment due to sloping roofs that make the environment less bright and overwhelming to the eyes.
An all-white furniture is the perfect solution to overcome this problem. White has the power to enlarge the room in terms of visual perception and make it look bright as if it were always exposed to the brightest light.
A skylight above the bed
The ideal location to place the skylight in the attic is above the bed so that you can gaze at the stars while lying comfortably as if it were a San Lorenzo night on a lawn.
Country touch
If you are lucky, the beams in the attic are exposed. It would be sacrilege to hide them! They are the ones that create a rustic atmosphere full of warmth.
Importance of shutters
Sleep and rest are extremely affected by external light. Therefore, it is very important to equip the windows of the attic with shutters or blinds that can hide the light well. In the attic, light is more important than in other places, as it hits more than on the other floors of the house.
Furnish the bedroom in a low attic
When the ceiling consists of a rather low attic, it is important to arrange the furniture so that you can move comfortably while standing, especially when you need to get dressed.
The wardrobe is therefore usually placed in the upper part of the attic, while the bed can be placed in the attic, usually to the side of the headboard.
This basic rule can obviously be reversed depending on the structure of the environment, which has its own specific characteristics.
For example, in a very large room you can place the bed in the middle, while on the sloping sides you can place bookcases or furniture such as drawers and dressers to accommodate clothes.
Modern attic bedrooms
Who says an attic bedroom has to have rustic or romantic decor?
If you like a more modern touch, you can furnish the attic bedroom with designer and minimal furniture, prefer gray tones instead of natural wood, and add a touch of color with bright elements.
Attic bedrooms for children
The room in the attic is a dream come true for children. Here they can actually play with their friends without being disturbed or chat with their friends without worrying that their mother's unstable ears can hear them. A bedroom in the attic allows our children to feel in a more private and intimate dimension, which helps concentration for study. (What is certain is that from this point of view it will be even more difficult to control them).
As for colors, choose light and neutral tones as a base, brighten the environment with more vibrant colors. Let the occupants of the room choose whatever color to make the environment even more personal.
