Arranging a bedroom under the roof: what to think about?
To properly arrange a bedroom under the roof, you must first and foremost focus on one technical criterion: insulation. It is essential to benefit from absolute comfort, winter and summer, while maintaining control of your energy expenditure.
In order to successfully furnish your room, you must then determine its use:
Depending on the type of room you want to fit out, the possibilities and technical requirements can vary significantly.
In the case of a guest bedroom, it is possible to opt for the layout of a classic bedroom, or to favor a modular solution. Depending on your habits, you can opt for a living room with a convertible sofa, which can act as a reading corner, or install an office corner, which will allow you to isolate yourself to work in peace.
Very quiet, the bedroom under the roof is ideal for babies. However, it must be easily accessible: there is no question of running the risk of falling while carrying your child! In addition, it is wise to have a bathroom located on the same level, so that you can change babies easily during the night.
For older children, access to the bedroom must of course be secure. A toilet easily accessible from the bedroom is also welcome!
The room under the roof offers an independence very popular with teenagers. For the occasion, opt for a studio-style layout, for example by opting for a daybed, a modular option that allows you to chill more comfortably during the day.
If you benefit from a generous space under the roofs, go ahead and set up an authentic parental suite with a bathroom.
If your development project includes a toilet or a bathroom, it is essential to anticipate and plan the water inlets and outlets accordingly.
Children’s room, parental suite or guest room: the light is an important element to enjoy a pleasant space. Roof windows are therefore an essential arrangement.
While it is good to contemplate the starry sky from the bed, it is important not to let its brightness disturb your sleep. Blackout blinds are therefore essential!
The alternative to traditional windows, or their complement, is the roof balcony. Benefiting from larger dimensions, it allows more light to enter, and it also offers you a nice view, or even a small terrace area for breakfast.
A very decorative attic room
The bedroom under the roof may seem tricky to arrange. It is true that to have a functional and cozy room, it is sometimes necessary to show imagination, and to optimize the space, in particular to install the arrangements. However, on the decorative side, a bedroom located under the roof offers the opportunity to create a stunning room!
The combined walk-in closet and built-in bookcase offers a perfect storage solution for a bedroom under the roof, especially as it adapts to all styles of decor.
The best way to organize the storage in the bedroom under the roof is to opt for the tailor-made. Now is the time to get creative. In this soft and fresh nursery, we took advantage of a section of the wall to install a smart and very decorative bookshelf.
White is a classic choice for an attic bedroom. To make the decor sparkle, we fell in love here for a colorful dressing room, which will wake up this teenage bedroom.
We often imagine the room under the roofs a bit rustic. A more contemporary decoration is however possible, even by keeping the visible framework, ideal for warming the atmosphere. The secret: choosing the right type of wood and its finish.
The attic room can be zen, even minimalist. In this room with its refined decor, we opted for a dark parquet floor, which creates a cozy atmosphere, while visually expanding the space.
When the sub-slope is pronounced, it may be a good idea to opt for a low bed. In this room under the roof, we adopted the pallet bed, an easy DIY to make yourself, which always has a maximum effect. Between a recycling spirit and a chalet atmosphere, this room with its characterful decor displays a resolutely cozy atmosphere.
In this Scandinavian-inspired room under the roof, we used a simple trick – a stripe pattern wallpaper – to bring depth to the room.
For a perfect balance between brightness and cocooning atmosphere, forget about white, and bet on a warmer and very trendy shade: the ecru color. In this room under the roofs benefiting from beautiful volumes, a light gray is used in addition for the bench and the textiles, which brings an additional touch of softness.
In this very contemporary attic room, we opted for a total white look to visually enlarge the space. The location of the bed – in the center of the room – frees up dedicated office space. The choice of a headboard equipped with storage allows both to structure the space, by isolating the resting area from the work area, and to benefit from additional storage.
