I have a feeling this was a kids room. Y'all are harsh, this would be dope as hell for a kid.

[–] Zaphod@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 1 year ago

Heck, this would be dopes as hell as an adult

The dimensions of Gilman's attic room are unusual and seem to conform to a kind of unearthly geometry. Gilman theorizes that the structure can enable travel from one plane or dimension to another.

There it is, saved me having to do it.

[–] Patch@feddit.uk 29 points 1 year ago (4 children)

There's so much to dislike, but I think the thing that irrationally bugs me the most is the fact that they chose a 6 panel door and just chopped the top off it right through the panels. Instead of, you know, just buying a different kind of door.

[–] HarkMahlberg@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

and it opens right into an open stair... that's a tripping hazard.

Also the door position relative to the stairs. It's horrible and even dangerous.

[–] morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

In most situations it'd be fine. I wouldn't want to move a couch through it though.

[–] whelks_chance@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

Probably not fireproof anymore. In case being up to code is an expectation here

[–] just_chill@jlai.lu 1 points 1 year ago

If someone renovate the place, that's the only good decision they had the opportunity to make. So they decided to stick with the theme.

[–] Laticauda@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 year ago

Ngl, I kinda like it lol. As a kid I would have wanted a room like this so bad.

I really want to see more angles of this room. It's so weird, and I just want to understand how weird.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

There's a lot of angles already in the picture, you want more?

[–] Philote@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Y’all are harsh. This looks like someone optimized the architecture of the space as best as possible. The only thing that bothers me is the choice of door where it’s chopping the panels awkwardly.

[–] BrainisfineIthink@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Without being able to see the other side, the door swing direction bugs me too. Like why does it open to the middle of the room blocking the stairs there, instead of towards the wall? Otherwise it seems pretty cool. Probably a kids room + upscale attic.

I live for this shit

I already have a headache and this didn't help at all.

Caligari with the lights on.

[–] preasket@lemy.lol 4 points 1 year ago

Idk, this looks fun!

[–] just_chill@jlai.lu 4 points 1 year ago

So that's what all the McMansions look like underneath the weird rooves.... that's interesting I guess, but the door has a different angle than the roof (maybe it fits the roff on the other side?). I don't hate it, but I wouldn't want it either.

Why are there stairs and a ladder right next to each other?

[–] sepiroth154@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

For people who can't choose.

[–] crossmr@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you talking about going from the landing up? I don't think those are more stairs on the left. That's the ceiling over the stairs outside the room. You go up the short stairs to the hybrid stairs/ladder to get to the loft area.

[–] Hubi@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're probably right. I guess just having another set of regular stairs on the left would've made too much sense.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think putting stairs on the left doesn't work because you'd be walking right into the wall/roof. There's no standing space above that. In fact, that entire upper section is too low to walk in. I assume it was meant as a child's bed nook. They clearly just converted the attic into a child's bedroom.

Fucking standard Norwegian rental property.

[–] itsyourmom@artemis.camp 2 points 1 year ago

I think I get it… they really like the chutes and ladders game and wanted a irl version!

Yeeeeah, you see what I was trying to do there.

This looks like an art installation!
