You recognize it: you have a beautiful attic with a lot of potential, but now it is a messy loft where you do not come for pleasure. That is of course a sin! But how should you furnish your attic? With this step-by-step plan you can turn your attic into a fantastic place again!
Step 1: determine the purpose of the attic
Furnishing an attic is not easy. First, think about what you want to do with the attic. Will it be a functional space such as an office or bedroom, or do you want to turn it into a hobby room? The options are endless.

Step 2: Make a plan
Now that you have a clear idea of what the function of the attic will be, it is important that you make a plan. Furnishing an attic without a plan takes a lot of unnecessary time and effort. Due to the sloping walls, it can be quite difficult to make a plan. What should you pay attention to? And what furniture and other attributes do you need to furnish the attic?
1. Make a map with what you want to put where. This is not exactly necessary, but it does give a clear picture of whether there is room for it.
2. Because you are dealing with sloping walls, it is important that you measure in advance how large the furniture can be. You also don't want a piece of furniture too big, because that makes the attic quickly look small.
3. What you see more and more nowadays are built-in wardrobes, so you make good use of the space, you can store a lot of things and it also looks tidy! 
Step 3: Clean up the attic
Of course you can't decorate your attic before everything is cleaned up! This is probably something you've been putting off for a long time, but now that you've set the goal, made a plan and ordered stuff for your attic, it's really time to clean up the attic. Put on your favorite music, and just start cleaning up and throwing things away. Think of the ultimate goal that you will soon have a newly furnished attic room!
Step 4: Paint the attic
An attic can quickly feel like a small space due to the sloping walls. Therefore, paint the walls of these walls in a light color. When you apply a dark color, the room feels even faster as a smaller space.

Step 5: Decorate the attic
Decorating the attic has now really started! Take out all the furniture and attributes, and put it in the desired place. It is of course still possible to move around with the different furniture until you have found your perfect layout!
Step 6: Accessories
Now comes the funniest part! A room should not only look functional, it should of course also look attractive. You do this by adding accessories such as pillows, house plants or wall decorations . Precisely because the walls are often sloping, you can play with this fun.
