Practical storage solutions for a sloping attic, by Luis

Creative storage in the attic

If you have ever been in a room with a pitched roof, you know how difficult it can be to make the most of every square metre. Luis solved this problem in an innovative way by making clever use of the space in his attic, a room under the eaves with a characteristic mansard roof. The result is not only practical, but also aesthetically pleasing.

Tailor-made with MDF wood

The storage solution was fully customised using 38 mm primed MDF and 30 mm primed MDF, ordered and carefully cut to size by TOSIZE.at. These timbers are ideal for achieving a smooth, clean finish, allowing the project to blend harmoniously with the loft's existing architecture.

Construction of the project

The construction consists of a series of panels cleverly arranged and firmly fixed against the sloping walls of the attic. By optimising the empty spaces between them, Luis has created practical storage spaces hidden behind the elegant MDF panels. The white MDF contrasts beautifully with the rustic background of the wooden beams, creating an atmosphere that is both modern and soothing.

Harmonious integration in the attic

The attic has been transformed into a space that is both functional and aesthetic. Through clever use of sloping roofs, this storage solution offers maximum space without sacrificing floor space. The result is not only more storage space, but also a sense of order and calm in a space that is often difficult to use.

DIY style: modern and rustic

The style of the project can be described as a mix of modern and rustic. The use of sleek white MDF contrasts nicely with the natural wooden beams and brick walls, giving it a unique and authentic charm.

The benefits of homemade

Building your own storage solutions offers unparalleled flexibility. Luis had the freedom to use exact dimensions that perfectly fit the unique dimensions of his attic. Moreover, self-build allows you to choose your own materials, in this case high-quality prepared MDF, for a durable and elegant finish.

Advantages of 38mm and 30mm prepared MDF

Opting for 38mm prepared MDF offers several advantages. These thicker panels give the structure a robust and solid look, which is essential for a project of this size.

With 30mm prepared MDF, it is easier to achieve detailed finishes. These thinner panels offer great design flexibility and allow for precise adjustments, contributing to the neat finish of this project.
