Attic Studio Apartment, Burns Beach

The brief from the customer was for an attic retreat with a bedroom, ensuite, kitchenette and study nook with the option of being a self-sufficient space to keep their options as broad as possible for the use of the space in the future.

The entryway to the house was opened up by a full height staircase giving access to the new attic conversion with skylights, allowing light to filter down and brighten up the lower levels of the house.

The new attic rooms bathed in natural light and the whole space took full advantage of the fresh ocean breeze to completely ventilate and cool the new areas. And the remaining roof space was utilised as storage with flooring and doorway access from the new liveable attic conversion.
