Great Design for Sloped Ceilings or A-Frame Rooms

Use what you've got to your advantage, let the angle enhance the feeling of the space.


use color-bright color, here orange is used to accentuate and bring on the cozy, in this setting the color acts in a whimsical way as it invites you to come over and sit down



the organic light fixture pops off the dark wall and seems to
be placed within the ceiling arch perfectly, the organic elements here play against the stark modern elements to create a high level of interest, note the round chairs contrast with the hard edge table and counter and angled ceiling

the planking and beams play up the sloped ceiling here, note the continuation of rhythm in the choice of horizontal striped drapes and the choice of bed frame which some what mimics the angled ceiling


this room is made cozy  by color,don't follow that rule: "no dark colors in a small space"


color used to accentuate- what great light and storage




 
love the lantern................
slanted walls and ceilings are unique and special, so play that up, here wallpaper and matching fabric give detail to this room



 left angled wall
the shiny satin finish on the walls and ceiling may have been selected to reflect light in this small space however I would have selected flat paint as it would look much better



the window, tub and squares in the ladder are great repetition in this left angle space



great design playing with the angles. the striped rug coupled with stacking those pictures adds rhythm to this left angle room




more great stacked pictures and barcelona chair created by the one and only mies van der rohe, the rustic floors contrast with the sleek barcelona in black which contrast with the white walls




I like it and I am not sure why



nature's a-frame, great rhythm & color choices
