Overview Dormer loft conversion. The Brief Our client wanted a master bedroom with lots of simple wardrobe space, a vanity area and bathroom. Our Solution We’ve enjoyed working on a loft or two over the years. In fact, we cut our teeth working with loft conversion company for many years – honing our understanding of the technical and spatial jigsaw of loft design. The aesthetic was for a crisp external treatment with feature glazing to bring in lots of light, use the view and avoid the ‘big ugly box’ syndrome that affects most loft design. We worked through several layout options before getting planning and building control in place for our client. An amazing parquet floor and well-placed bathroom furniture make this loft stand out, our client hopes to add a complementary ground floor extension in future to complete the overhaul of this 1930’s semi.

A full height marble mosaic wall is the main feature wall which forms the backdrop for the original clawfoot tub and becomes the wall of the shower. A storage niche for towels, bath products and decor, sits alongside the tub and wraps around the adjacent wall to become storage niche behind the vanity. The shelf seamlessly becomes the vanity countertop. The storage niche in the shower is also tiled in glass mosaic that wraps around to adjacent shower wall and becomes floor to ceiling tile.

Engineered Vinyl Plank (EVP) is a new vinyl platform that combines the durability and water resistance of vinyl with an innovative new substrate plank technology. EVP's no-fuss maintenance is as attractive as its high-definition design. A urethane top coat or "wear layer" provides exceptional scratch resistance, stain resistance, and dent resistance for high-traffic areas, which is very useful for families, light commercial, pets, etc. Due to the waterproof nature of EVP, it can be utilized in almost any room.
