Attic Design + Build out – Glen Ellyn, IL

Our client desired to build out their third floor to have a get-away space and more fully utilize their attic. They reached out to us on a neighbor’s recommendation. We developed a concept vision with an open, durable, airy, casual feel;  full of storage and complete with a secret passage and door!

The open area of the attic features faux beams and wood-look LVT for a realistic yet low maintenance flooring solution.

Our design successfully transformed attic into a fully usable space complete with bathroom and built-in bed for guests. Adding a fireplace allowed us to anchor the seating area creating a point of focus.

We designed a built-in bed surround complete with built-in shelves and storage drawers and luggage closets. The bedding selected is reminiscent of a cottage vacation home.

Nestled under the eaves the attic, this cozy bathroom utilizes every inch. Seated areas were placed at lower elevations.

Adding a skylight allowed us to increase the natural light in the space while maintaining privacy.

New Dormer windows with bench seats add light and seating

Ample built-in storage at the stairs allows for maximum efficiency
