Space Considerations
The size and layout of your attic are important elements to consider when planning how it will be used. Low or angled ceilings and beams can greatly impact how you’ll use this space.

Organizing Your Space
Attics are prone to disorganization; seldom seen, out of the way, and a catch-all for miscellaneous items. The first step in ensuring your attic is easy to navigate and use is to set up a well-organized storage system. Make sure everything has a place: holiday decor, seasonal clothes, sporting gear, and more. Plastic bins are an easy and functional option, but built-in storage can bring your attic to the next level.
Built-In Shelving
Built-in shelving will make your attic space more usable and organized. Tiered shelving will create more storage space and prevent the need for stacking boxes or items. A slat-board system, which we often install in garage storage systems, could also be an excellent way to make use of attic walls and beams.
Create a Spare Room
A larger finished attic could make for a great spare room for hobbies. Considering transforming your attic into a reading nook. A comfortable chair, custom-sized bookshelves, and soft rug will create a place where you can relax and escape from the world. For attics with comfortable ceiling height, they could make a great craft or entertainment room, too.
