Attic Build-out Design

  • Status: Open
  • Prize: $300
  • Entries Received: 20

Contest Brief

ALL (1) AI Entries, (2) entries that do not include the floor plan and (3) entries that the floor plan is not specific to the home based on the drawings provided will be Rejected, Only job specific entries will considered.

The First Step in the process is to submit a separate floor plan that is specific to the house based on the pdf and dwg files provided. Once the floor plan has been reviewed and deemed to be consistent with the examples provided it will be "approved", then photorealistic 3d renderings can be added. Any entry submitted with just pictures will be rejected immediately. Do not submit floor plans and pictures combined as the floor plan is too small to easily review.

We are looking into utilizing a somewhat large (approximately 820 sq ft) currently unfinished attic space. While practicality drives the project, we still want a clean, modern look-sleek lines, integrated lighting, and finishes that feel current without being cold.

PDF and DWG files are provided.

Actual pictures of the space have been added.

Here is what I need from you:

• The requirement is to include a bedroom, closet, full bath with a Head Knocker (Cabinet above the toilet to the ceiling) with glass enclosed walk in shower and storage in the design. Everything else is up to your imagination. There will also be some requirements for doors to access the actual attic areas where the air conditioning units are installed. Please review the photos to get an idea where the units are.

Additionally, we will likely include a skylight on the north side of the roofline which is where the area marked AHU is. That is the AC Units.

• To the extent there is cabinetry involved in your design, cabinetry and shelving concepts that maximize vertical and corner storage while keeping the modern aesthetic. Each Submission should be duplicated with one with Shaker style cabinetry the other in Flat style (Examples of both are provided). Colors should be and in white or light oak. See Admiralty Bend Kitchen 3.jpg attached for color example. Linen closet would be a great addition to the bathroom if there is space. Tall Cabinetry should extend to the ceiling.

• Though this is primarily a 2D design project, multiple photorealistic 3D visuals and rendered elevations for each area from multiple viewpoints so we can see the proposed look and feel before committing to build, especially taking into account ceiling and roofline issues.

All measurements must be in feet and inches, not in metric form.

Acceptance criteria

• Efficient travel paths and efficient use of the total available spaces.

• Winner should anticipate possible multiple final revision requirement before acceptance of final product.

• Final deliverable package includes editable CAD (dwg files, Revit can be provided in addition to pdf and dwg), PDF files with dimensions and pdf designs without dimensions including floor plan, cabinetry, sinks, showers, tubs, etc..

Current floor plan PDF and dwg files will be provided. Existing home pictures can be viewed at:

Contest winner may not be selected until 7 to 10 days after completion of the Contest allowing us time to investigate the top entries fully and possibly ask questions.

      Could you please help provide the elevation/height of the existing beams, the roof pitch (slope), and the height of the perimeter walls where they meet the sloped roof?

      These measurements would be very helpful in accurately planning the layout, storage solutions, and ceiling clearances within the attic space.

      Thank you for your assistance.

    As indicated in the Project Details, DO NOT SUBMIT EXAMPLES OF PRIOR WORK. All entries should be specific for this home in the space available for this home, not prior work or generic pictures of bathrooms, kitchens, attics, etc.
