housing problem
So you can use your living room under the roof optimally, without bothering your head - and it is also totally cozy!
A living room under the roof is very comfortable. But it is also a challenge to make the roof pitches : what fits under the slope? We will tell you how to set up and make the most of space. How to do that?
Trick 1: By pushing the furniture deep under the slope and using the blind spot, you can optimally design the sloping roofs . Here, a modular system was fitted, whose elements are available in many designs, heights and depths: Thus, it can be adapted exactly to the slope. Low sideboard modules make up the base. These are joined by essay elements at a shallower depth.
Trick 2: Focus on the window area. In our example, it is framed on the right and left by higher shelves, in between the sideboards carry an attachment, which acts as a window sill. The seating group is also based on the light of day: The sofa was placed across the room - in such a way that one looks straight into the sky while relaxing. Making pitched roofs requires creativity!
Trick 3: Design or paint the room in light tones: In dark colors, the bevel visually expresses even more.
Trick 4: Emphasize the height of the room. You can achieve this with low, slim furniture. Generally, the room is not full - less is more.
Trick 5: Bring in a lot of brightness: do not darken windows (choose bright blinds), create different light zones with floor and table lamps.
