HOME EDITION
Maximise all those nooks and crannies with built-in storage or multi-purpose furniture
As well as planning permission, design is crucial for a loft conversion. Once your room has been built, maximise all those nooks and crannies with built-in storage, such as Sharps’ offerings, or multipurpose furniture like that of Little Folks Furniture – ideal for children’s rooms. Dramatic wallpaper is a good way to make a feature of unusual alcoves or angled walls. Woodchip & Magnolia is renowned for its eclectic patterns, while Industville’s New York loft-style lighting will help make your attic room bright and inviting. Fitted and automated blinds give a sleek finish to windows set in the eaves. There are a variety available at English Blinds and 247Blinds. Other practical additions can also double up as design features. Choose space-saving radiators for small bathrooms, or perhaps a vintage style for character, both available at The Radiator Centre.
KEEP IT CLASSIC SARAH O’SULLIVAN, HOMES DESIGNER AT JOHN LEWIS, ON THE BEST DESIGN TREND FOR RENOVATIONS “Our new ‘Classic’ trend for 2023 embodies a love of pattern, pairing folklore-inspired prints with curvaceous silhouettes across lighting and furniture to create a statement interior. This is easily achieved by layering patterns and materials and introducing bold pops of colour throughout the home.”
