Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

Many new homes have tall ceilings, which is a visually appearing characteristic. However, high ceilings don’t serve a purpose other than creating the illusion of more space. A way to take advantage of this space is to create a library loft.

If you have a home office, a library loft is a practical way to store books that you don’t need to refer to often. Also, closed files can be kept up here too. Even if you create the loft in your family room or sitting area, it can be beneficial for your children or the book collector member of your family.

The ceiling trim can double as a baseboard, but you will need railings, a step ladder and bookshelves. More modern bookcases such as the KARTELL Bookworm shelf can make the loft more inviting and fun for children. If there is room, a Rhodes futon chair with a small table are some cozy touches.
