Artsy Room

MarinaHanes ~ 26 June 2009

Painting, sculpting, ceramics, piano, flute, guitar…whichever type of art you’re into, you should have a special place in your home for it. Even if you have to make ceramics out of your garage or play the drums in your attic, it’s comforting to know that your home welcomes these talents.

If you’re remodeling the attic so a drafting table and easel fits, a few skylights on the northern portion of the ceiling will provide ideal lighting. Also, make sure that there is enough room to be comfortable (at least 70 square feet of floor space).

The swanky piano room below has included a variety of textural elements, which can inspire your creativity. For example, there is a faux fur rug under the piano, patterned upholstered chairs and ornate wood detailing on the table.

Regardless of which room in your home you have available to convert into an art studio or music room, it’s important to have pieces of visual interest as well as a window into the outside world.
