127 Trinidad Drive
This bedroom’s high ceiling gives the impression that the space is larger, and the color scheme gives the space a chic, modern appearance.
Shades of Gray
With in-the-wall drawers, this contemporary interpretation of an attic bedroom makes the most of the small space. Simple calm is evoked by the use of soft gray bedding, walls, and lighting.
Placing Beds Under The Slant Creates A Cozy Nook
Make sure you’re sleeping in a space that feels safe and secure if you want a good night’s rest. Because of this, many people may decide to position their bed precisely beneath the slant when designing a room with slanted ceilings in order to create a cozy corner. You might be able to position your headboard against the lower wall and a smaller nightstand on each side, depending on the height of the eaves. Some people might still decide to position the bed parallel to the overhang, though, if it hangs too low.
According to Today, you are likely to feel more secure in your bedroom if you can’t see your bed from the room’s entry completely since it makes you feel safer against intruders, even subconsciously. The nook beneath the eaves also becomes cozier if you choose to put skylights on the sloped ceilings because you may spend your nights stargazing until you nod off.

This San Francisco bedroom’s white ceiling and monochromatic exposed beams make for a striking contrast.
Perfect Symmetry
The bright design of this attic bedroom is what draws people in. A room that may otherwise feel dark and claustrophobic is made brighter by the use of white walls and honey wood floors in this area. Plenty of natural light is also provided by mirroring skylights and a center window, which makes the room feel larger than it actually is.
Measure And Double Measure Before Buying Anything
Slanted ceiling rooms are likely to have odd sizes and perhaps uncomfortable dead space that might not initially appear to be useful. Because of this, before making any final decorating decisions, you’ll need to be especially diligent about measuring your room and all the objects you plan to utilize in it. The size of your room should be measured first, according to Darby Road Home, to prevent any unpleasant shocks. This would include the room’s entry clearance as well as the height and length of each wall. Next, as expected, you must measure the height and width of each piece of furniture.
To make sure it will 1) clear the doorway and 2) fit the area, you must additionally measure the diagonal depth of the object. According to ConfettiStyle, you should leave at least 5 to 9 inches between the top of a piece of furniture and the bottom of the décor. Pay close attention to how you arrange your furniture because this can be particularly challenging in spaces with sloped ceilings.

Although the bed may be the focal point of this Chicago bedroom, the lovely exposed/sloped ceiling gives the room a cozy atmosphere that is both comfortable and opulent.
Under the Stars
For a visitor staying over who enjoys stargazing, this cozy attic bedroom is ideal. The amount of furniture is kept to a minimum in order to compensate for the room’s small size and low ceilings. A bed that is positioned between two skylights allows people to fall asleep under the stars and awaken to a room that is drenched in sunlight.
Use Fun Colors To Create Space
The colors of a room’s walls have a significant impact on how big people perceive it to be overall. A room can feel bigger and brighter with certain colors, whereas a room can feel smaller and more enclosed with other hues. It’s preferable to choose the former as decorating a room with sloped ceilings already makes it feel claustrophobic. Bright white paint always makes a room feel lighter, but to prevent the area from feeling sterile, it should be combined with matching colors in other elements of the room. If you don’t like white, a creamy taupe or a blush pink will still achieve the same result of amplifying any natural light in the room.
If a darker color scheme is more your thing, The House Designers adds, you can still use somber colors in a smaller room, but only if you adhere to a few straightforward rules. The key to making a room appear larger is to combine darker hues with lighter shades of the same hue. To open up the space, paint the room’s woodwork and ceiling a somewhat lighter shade of cobalt if you want to paint your bedroom a deep navy blue. To get the similar result, you could also paint three of the walls navy blue and highlight the fourth wall with a lighter tint.

Incorporate Color and Plenty of Light
In contrast to the sharp black accessories and pristine white paint in this attic bedroom, the layers and layers of purple truly stand out. Treat it exactly like any other bedroom, but keep in mind that if there are only little skylight windows, you might need to add more overhead lighting.
