While an attic might not offer enough space to get a room the entire family can enjoy, even a little attic space provides ample room for a sleeping place. For a tiny loft sleeping area, space is at a premium, therefore big furniture such as a four-poster bed or armoire are likely from the issue. Decorate your tiny sleeping area so that it feels comfortable, is sensible and gives the impression of a larger space, making the place feel less crowded.
Mirrors
Mirrors are crucial to making miniature spaces seem larger. A mirror positioned opposite a window seems to increase the space, making it seem more airy as light bounces from the mirror back into the room. Big mirrors on opposing walls also boost the room, making it seem deeper no matter which mirror is seen. The mirror also provides a means to look at yourself before venturing downstairs, so that it serves a dual function.
Stripes
Vertical stripes painted on one wall produces the wall appear taller than it really is, providing the illusion of more space. Diagonal stripes also create the illusion of a larger place. Cheery or peaceful colors create a fun, playful environment or a focus for the area of respite.
Storage
A tiny attic sleeping space frequently needs storage places also. A loft with an angled ceiling or walls ensures standard tall shelving will not suffice. Short bookcases or storage blocks put along the angled areas creates storage space for bedding, pajamas and necessities within an otherwise unused space. A little storage cube or nightstand tucked into a corner near the bed also maximizes available space in the room.
Decorations
For an attic with a sloped, high ceiling, there is potentially a lot of unused space up high. Paper lanterns, kites or phones give the space a lively vibe without taking any of this useful floor space. Images which travel up an angled wall into the stage of the ceiling create the space appear much larger than it is, giving the space creative flair in the procedure. Lamps, chairs and accessories kept around the perimeter of the room maintain the main floor area open, maximizing usable floor space.
