What could be more interesting than a bedroom in the attic? Many children love to climb to the upper floors, so the room under the roof must definitely come to their taste.It is also important that due to this location, there will be a great view from the windows, and the peculiarities of the roof will give the room some kind of mystery.

Room features

In a house with a sloping roof, the structure of the attic has its advantages:

  • This design allows you to make higher ceilings, which visually slightly increase the room.
  • You can also choose the original design solutions for the room, which is very important for the children's room.
  • Another undoubted advantage is the cold-resistance of the room with wooden ceilings and a high level of protection against precipitation. The comfort and safety of the child is the most important thing, and a room in such an attic can easily provide them.

However, it is worth considering the fact that in hot and sunny weather the roof will warm up very much, so you need to take care of thermal insulation so that there are no unpleasant surprises.

We plan correctly

The arrangement of the nursery in the attic is no different from the arrangement of any other room. The only difficulties can arise when working with sloping ceilings and the space under them.However, with proper planning, these small drawbacks of limited space can be turned into advantages.

Functionality

When planning a room, it is necessary to divide it into appropriate zones. In a child's child it is worthwhile to set up a zone for sleeping, studying, and for games. Even if the room on the attic is not spacious enough, the room must contain a bed, a study table, a wardrobe for storing clothes and drawers (or bedside tables) for toys. At the entrance to the room is best to put a closet and a rack with shoes.

The bed (to save space and create additional comfort) can be placed in a place with the most sloping ceiling. Such a solution will make it possible to design a sleeping area especially creatively - there is an opportunity to place a canopy above the bed, and to decorate the wall with paintings or shelves with books and other trifles. Even the stars in the dark above the head will contribute to the emergence of a special enchanting atmosphere.

The training area is usually located in the most bright place in the room, that is, by the window. This is not only the most appropriate choice of lighting, but also a breathtaking view opening onto the street.

The area for games in style may differ slightly from the design of other zones. It is worth adding more bright colors. Perfectly fit baskets or cabinets with toys, small tables for creativity, at which you can sit right on the floor (but in this case you will need to take care of a good flooring).

If the ceiling height allows, a good solution would be to arrange it in the room of the wall gymnastic complex. Several wooden ladders are an excellent solution, for example, for a room in a nautical style. Such ladders will allow the child to feel like a fearless captain of the ship.

Interior design should also be carefully considered, because its appearance and personality development depend on the appearance of the room in which the child spends most of the time. Harmoniously and sophisticatedly furnished room can awaken a creative spirit, craving for study, contribute to the development of talents, just inspire to learn something new.

The room for the girl is usually made in pink, white and cream colors. Decor and decorations are used, giving the room tenderness and fabulousness,turning her into the bedroom of a real little princess.

In the room for the boy is characterized by the design of blue, blue and green colors. Can be used marine or sports themes. When planning a bedroom for two children, the decision to divide the room with the help of color zones will come to the rescue, which will provide each child with a corner in which you can spend time with pleasure.

But the best thing when planning a child is not to be guided by his own preferences, but, first of all, to be interested in his child, what he wants. So it will turn out to create for him a real dream room.

Lighting

Children's room, and indeed any bedroom, should be filled with plenty of light. This is especially important for a child, as he will spend a lot of time in his room playing and studying. Large windows will create the illusion of spaciousness and lightness, provide maximum natural lighting, and can also play an important role in interior design.

In this photo, the original design solution: a bed located by the round window adds to the room a special coziness and romantic charm.

Illumination of the room in the evening days will provide chandeliers and lamps, which must be evenly located in different zones.

Harmonization of space: decoration and design

In order for the children's room to look holistically and harmoniously, it is necessary to pay special attention to the decoration and design.

Selection of floor and wall materials

A common material for finishing the attic is wood. Wooden surfaces look good in any interior, especially in the attic. This is one of the most environmentally friendly materials, which is important for a child's room.

In addition to wood, walls can be covered with wallpaper or paint. You should not use too bright colors and complex patterns, it is better to opt for a single-color coating of light and pastel colors. The decoration and color of the ceiling should not stand out from the general color scale, it is better to paint it in the same colors as the walls (or make it a few tones lighter).

Wooden parquet can be replaced with linoleum or laminate with the image of a wooden cut. It is also recommended to choose carpets with a soft and thick pile, as the child will spend a lot of time on the floor playing.

Furniture

The design of the room on the attic floor already dictates certain conditions when choosing furniture. If you create a room for two children, then due to the structure of the walls and the ceiling it will not always be possible to choose high wardrobes for clothes or bunk beds. However, this problem is easily solved. So, a large wardrobe can easily replace a chest of drawers or wall cabinets.

As long as the child is small, it will be quite comfortable for him to sleep on a bed located at the bevel of the wall. For a teenager, it is better to arrange a bed either in the center of the room, or under the highest ceiling. If there are enough windows in the room, you should put a bed in one of them.

Even if at the time of registration of the room the child is still small and needs only a game space, it is worth remembering that in a few years he will need a desk, a wardrobe or shelves with books.

The room should be developed together with its owner, so it’s worth to think about its future redevelopment right away, initially leaving the possibility of changing some zones.

To save space, retractable shelves or wall racks are used. You can take care of a sliding bed that serves as both a place to sleep and to store bedding or other things.In a narrow niche under the bevel of the wall will conveniently accommodate small shelves for books or toys.

Decor

Children love to have something unique and colorful, so the decor of their bedroom should be appropriate. Beveled walls can be decorated with pictures of a child in frames, a collage with his photos, special wall drawings: starting with the prints of children's palms and ending with branches of blossoming sakura. Making even the most ordinary things (such as a bed) can be turned into something fabulous and unique.

In this photo, a place to sleep at the same time is also an excellent castle, on the shelves of which are conveniently located books or toys. Padded stools or rugs can not only perform their direct functions, but also be an original decoration of the room. So, a pouf in the form of a football will surely suit the taste of a small athlete and perfectly fit into the interior.
