Let daylight transform your loft space

“Having the space up here is just a really nice haven for us to escape, it’s great for our wellbeing. I personally, love coming up here and reading a book with a cup of coffee.”
Make your loft space a unique part of your home
Here are some ideas to transform your loft into a magical place:
- The combination of daylight and opening of the loft creates a ‘wow’ effect which will be unique to your home. It's beautiful, bright, and yours! With a VELUX roof terrace, you can blur the boundaries between inside and outside.
- Choose a paint colour you love to create a feature wall. Be careful of painting the ceiling, as this can create the illusion of a smaller space.
- Fit with custom-made furniture to maximise the space. Loft spaces are often tricky as they are tight spaces with awkward layouts. You can make the most of your space by furnishing it with bespoke furniture.
- Keep your authentic style. Reclaiming or reusing material for a lived-in look allows you to be creative with your interior and have a one-of-a-kind loft.
