Attic Area before Dormer Construction Began-
This photo was shown on HGTV's " New Spaces",
as a "Before " photo of this project.
Finished living space- This
photograph shows how built in bookshelves and a window seat make
use of available space, despite a lack of head
room space.
Attic Dormered Area- This
view shows how storage areas and mechanical spaces are integrated
into the new bedroom area. The new double
hung window in the backround matches the
proportions of the windows on the rest of the
home. Lively colors make the room look bright and
cheerful.
Attic Stairs-
The existing attic staircase remained, but a new handrailing and a new
double hung
window with transom was integrated into the area
to provide safety, daylight and view. Again the
window selected matches the overall scale of
the rest of the windows of the home. The mirrored
doors for the closet doors, selected by the client,
gives greater depth to the bedroom.
