Loft Conversion – Design Inspiration
Light and shade – exposed beams
This could add an interesting texture and feature to an area that will be more of a dominant visual component due to the lower height of the roof. It will break up the light skimming across the surface of the ceiling.

Grey cladding can help dormer recede visually & blend in with roof tiles (if able to re-roof in slate – preferred option) Zinc is attractive & could be relatively low maintenance?

Dark windows frames, guttering and other details can help reduce ‘busy’ feeling somewhat that can be created by too many different materials/colours

This l-shaped dormer looks obtrusive. Grey cladding helps it recede somewhat, white window looks odd. 
Not the biggest fan of full width dormers due to these issues with detailing if both neighbours end up with them. Prefer mansards if full width.

Smaller terrace – maybe more similar in size to this house 
Stairs
Light spilling down from overhead rooflight (probably on south facing pitch), ability to retain over-stairs ceiling airer on 1st floor landing if possible.
Prefer stairs this direction due to better ‘flow’ 
Not as much of a fan of loft stairs being above the original stairs since it creates a more divided ‘circulation space’ and blocks light from a rooflight travelling further down.
Loft Shower Room
Would be highly beneficial to have more than one shower in the house & for loft room to be a compact master suite. This would add value that might more justify the cost of converting the loft.

Toilet is under pitched section of roof, utilising extra head height created by placement of the rooflight
