Brief: A hip-to-gable rear & L-shaped dormer loft conversion to a semi-detached house in Teddington, South West London, creating two new bedrooms and one bathroom.
Hip to Gable
The hip-to-gable loft conversion is incredibly adaptable to different property types, with this build being specialised to the L-shape of the house. Many families in South West London are investing in their homes with this type of loft conversion, as it can add lots of new functional space in their homes and increase the value of their property. Whether you are welcoming a new addition to your family, or welcoming the return of your eldest after University, a loft conversion can be the best choice to give a family member their own space in your home.
This conversion has been beautifully designed, with a Juliet balcony in the main bedroom which creates a well-lit functional bedroom for a teenager. The space in the room allows for all possessions to be easily accessible and on display, making it personal and interesting. The work desk next to the balcony provides a well-lit workstation, which is removed from the bed – creating a healthy boundary between working and relaxing. There is ample amount of storage in this room, with drawers and cupboards lining the wall to the side of the bed. These can be used to store clothing and belongings that your child has brought back from University.
The ensuite for this main bedroom is very fitting for a teenager in London, with the green tiling similar to many tube station’s tiling patterns. This is a popular tiling pattern in recent years, as retro London has made a comeback in London interior décor. The green is tonal with the blue theme in the bedroom, whilst remaining multi-functional if the room needs to be changed for a younger sibling. By having an ensuite in this room, the user can be autonomous to the rest of the house, which can be very attractive for University students returning from living independently for several years.
The second bedroom that was created in this loft conversion is striking, with the vibrant green patterned wallpaper. This echoes the tiling style and bed spread in the main bedroom, allowing for a consistent style to be upheld throughout the conversion. The complex pattern is worked into the room by having solid colours throughout the rest of the room, with grey carpets, grey shrug blanket and grey headboard. It is always wise to balance out bold patterns with solid grounding colours.
