I always wanted a space like that to make a sweet pad for my dog, with a fire-hydrant lamp, photos on the wall of his dog friends and comfy bed, small corner fireplace etc...

How tiny is this dog of yours that it can fit in there with all that stuff?

[–] Andonyx@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Judging by the spacing of the bannister rails that space looks to be ~36x30. My dog's bed is 26" across, leaving plenty of room for the other stuff. I mean look for a dollhouse fireplace on line, they're pretty small, and the lamp could just be a rubber fire hydrant toy with the lamp mount jammed in.

Alright.. so let’s now work on this space..

You got stairs or we building a second level?

If we had a cat, a loft would be a brilliant idea!

When my son was younger he was extremely scared of thunderstorms. The closest under our stairs is fairly large and is in the middle of the house, so with a noise maker he couldn't hear the storms in there. We ended up putting a cot in there and decorating it with a bunch of Harry Potter stuff. Any time there was rain he would just hang out in there until it was over. At one point he actually preferred it to his bedroom.

Dog or cat bed. I don't have either but I can dream.

I would put a giant beanbag and a lamp there personally. Great reading nook.

Harry Potter's bedroom used to be a cupboard under the stairs, with a door that locked from the outside.

I wonder why Harry never enchanted it to be bigger on the inside

Wasn't it already after year 1 that he got a bigger room because they feared his magic?

Yeah, it was Book 2 when Ron broke him out.

Well after all people fear what they cannot understand amd what they don't understand they try and destroy or in this case avoid it

Custom shelves for sure

A person who lives in subdivided apartment would have a better time here.

And the rent would only be $1200/mo! So affordable!

Probably put a Golden Magical Red Dwarf Canary Tardis Program in it
