Classroom lofts have always been a small embodiment of recess, right behind the students with the books, activities and computer lab. While certainly adding serviceability and encouraging the children to be active, they also provide kids the opportunity to discover and be creative with their friends and imaginations.
Our DiY Classroom Reading Loft provides many different sizes and arrangements to fit your needs, no matter what size space you have available. We even offer an extra large classroom loft if the space allows. Save the exorbitant prefab and labor costs and add an extra cool factor to your classroom by downloading this DiY loft plan!
