Kitchen: A large stove for baking and cooking, a double sink, and clever use of mason jars for visually appealing dry goods storage. Dining Area: A multifunctional table that doubles as an altar and a cozy breakfast spot with a view. Living Room: Comfortable seating with a durable love seat, a compact library, and built-in storage using staircases. Bathroom: Spacious shower, low-flow water-saving features, and matching stone backsplash for a seamless design.
Loft Space: King-sized bed, efficient storage, and a TV nook for relaxing evenings. Take your time to plan and save for high-quality materials, like countertops or couches, to avoid replacements later. Think ahead about the placement of appliances, cabinet doors, and furniture to ensure functionality. Dual-purpose designs, such as using stairs for storage, are essential for maximizing space.
