Attic Converted into Living Apartment by an Architect

http://karnaintrack.blogspot.com - It took 2 years of hard labor for this apartment to be finished by Dimitar Karanikolov, the owner of this home, an architect at Meshroom and he couldn't done it without the help of the interior designer Veneta Niklova. After many years away from home, far away to London, the couple decides to return to their homeland, at Sofia in Bulgaria, and find a place that they could call it home. They brought an apartment with an attic and after many hours of brainstorming they came up with an unique design, nicknamed Loft 9b, that is making this apartment feel like home.

The attic was transformed into a full time living room with an gorgeous wood floor an wooden table and leather chairs. A massive metal books shelf stands in the middle of the living room.

For heating the living room they opted for an modern fireplace encased into an brick wall that stores the heat and releases it gradually,

A leader sofa is in the middle of the living room, and the design of the widows was made so that they will let plenty of light inside the attic.

The massive metal thing in the middle of the room is not actually empty. If you climb the suspended wood stairs you will arrive to the bathroom.

The bathroom is simple, containing just a modern square toilet and a square sink. It also has some textured wood decorations inside, which is not something you see in a bathroom.

The shower cap has an unique cylindrical shape and it is made from shiny metal.

Labeled she/he storage shelves for personal hygiene.

The side of the bathroom metal room contains an wood desk which serves as an home office space.

The bedroom is also an unique one. The bed is placed on pallets, a concept that is not often seen. The windows inside the bedroom are large enough to let plenty of natural light inside.

The wall in front of the bed has been turned into an paintings gallery, showing the love for art of the owners.

The flat TV was incorporated into an painting frame to make it look like a regular painting.

They decorated the bedroom wall with white brick texture to give it an cozy feeling.

The closed is unique as well. They chosen an design that makes it look like an leader trunk.

The coat hanging area is simple and classical, surrounded by brick walls. On the floor an extra storage place was added in the form of an old looking leather trunk.

The kitchen space is right next to the living room. The design of the kitchen has an modern look to it, but it is really compact, but is enough for a two person family.

An neat idea to salvage old wood and turn it into an dining table with an retro design.

As a light source their idea was to use 5 old looking Edison light bulbs that are hanging from the ceiling.

On top of the living room they made an lofted space that contains a second bed and a bathtub embedded into the floor.
