This was a similar aesthetic to my friend's house, with white floors. The ceiling beams, uniquely shaped furniture, and unusual collection (kept classy and organized in the shelving) make this unusual room a great success.
Painting wood floors with crisp white paint is also a popular choice. Here the result is just great. The wide white planks add to the fresh modern appeal and create a wonderful sense of movement against the ceiling beams running in an opposing direction.
I just love this. I would like to paint the wood floors in my office and all the walls and just live the trims on the walls a beautiful color of chocolate...and paint the cabinets as well.....
I'd move the rolling library ladder to the shelves & still use it for the loft; mattress-sized loft w/ curtain - should have built-in bookshelves & lighting above the mattress & just enough floor space to make the bed...
The modern simplicity mixed with homey touches. The white allows the details to truly stand out as decorative pieces instead of just clutter. The gorgeous table with the organic simplistic chairs says it all. I especially like the ladder-access loft. Very much like a treehouse. It adds a touch of whimsy and playfulness you don't normally see in such modern spaces.
