39 beautiful Attic Rooms in Room Roof Space

Attic rooms are usually the most appealing interiors in the whole house, even though we can not tell for sure what draws us to them so much. Some people unconsciously correlate them with secret rooms, or even with large playgrounds. Either way, they have a special charm, and a warm feel that seems to follow you around, even after you leave them. Designing such a space comes with its many challenges. That is why today we decided to try and make things easier for you. By putting together a list with the most beautiful attic rooms out there, we figured we would at least give you a starting point in decorating. You could also begin by acknowledging the fact that the space just beneath the ceiling is extremely versatile. There is nothing stopping you  for turning it into the room of your dreams, whether we are talking about a crazy living space with a hammock in the middle or an exhibition interior for your miniature train collection. But before you take any decision, we have a few really sweet examples of attic rooms we would like to share. Does any of them come close to your tastes?

Spectacular Mix of Raw Materials and Color Displayed by SGNW House in South Africa



The spectacular SGNW House was designed by Metropole Architects and is embedded in the lush vegetation of Zimbali, South Africa. No matter what the standpoint, this modern home offers details that inspire and amaze. According to the official description provided by the architects, “several bodies of water, including Koi ponds, water features and a rim flow swimming pool appear to coalesce into one, and flow through the house and out into the forest. The stacked roof is fragmented and linked with flat roof slabs, in correspondence to the spatial arrangement of the rooms below, which both scales and articulates the massing of the house. The main bedroom suite cantilevers six meters over the patio below, providing protection from the weather, as well as “wow” factor. Large amounts of glazing optimize views of the indigenous bush that encapsulates the house, and together with the palette of raw materials including natural timber, off shutter concrete, water and natural stone cladding, offset the clean architectural lines with a warmth and Zen like ambiance”. Due to a daring mix of colors and decorating elements, each room is more surprising than the next-have a look!
