• Make use of the brightness: If your upstairs loft is the brightest space of the home, it will be a wastage if you use it as the media room or home theatre.
• Avoid anything too heavy: Some facilities (such as swimming pool) are too heavy to be placed at the highest floor of the house. It might be structurally impossible without engineering remodelling.
• Maximise the open space: Loft area is usually with less columns, it will be the best to place here a function that requires large open space, such as living room, entertainment room, kids’ bedroom/playroom.
• Plan your logistic in advance: When you try to move some big furniture to your loft, make sure to plan for logistic first as the staircase can be too narrow, the turning point may not fit, and the window can be too smaller for letting the big piece to settle in.
• Soundproof the flooring: A good thick rug is always good for soundproofing the loft from the floor downstairs.
• Design with the head room in mind: If your loft is an attic, you may need to consider customising cabinets to fit the angles. When you plan for furniture placement, make sure to consider head room for activities.
• Take care of the roof: Waterproof, energy-proof and soundproof of the roof is very important to the wellness of the loft area. Make sure to carry out regular checking, and do not be cheap at repair works.
