About This Project

The Mountain Ave Attic Playroom project, situated in the historic Washington Highland neighborhood of Wauwatosa, WI, transformed an underutilized attic space into a vibrant play area for children. Emphasizing a balance between preserving the home's historic charm and creating a functional, modern space, the project was guided by the homeowners' desire for a warm and safe environment for their kids. The attic, previously unfinished, was meticulously designed to maximize functionality while maintaining the character of the historic home. Craftsmanship played a pivotal role in this renovation, with careful attention to the architectural details that define the property. The design incorporated two low cabinets with sliding doors, seamlessly built under the sloping roof to provide ample storage without encroaching on the play area. This clever solution not only preserves floor space but also adds to the room's aesthetic, ensuring that the playroom remains clutter-free and inviting. The materials chosen for the cabinetry and finishes reflect the home’s original woodwork, reinforcing the historical context while catering to the practical needs of an active family. The outcome is a beautifully appointed playroom that combines comfort and style. The soft color palette and natural light flooding the space create an inviting atmosphere, perfect for imaginative play. The design also allows for flexibility, accommodating various activities as the children grow. Overall, the Mountain Ave Attic Playroom stands as a testament to the skilled craftsmanship and thoughtful design that can breathe new life into historic homes, making it a cherished space for family memories to flourish. The project not only fulfilled a functional need but also enhanced the overall value and enjoyment of this historic property, ensuring it continues to be a treasured family home for years to come.
