Hi,
I’m planning a loft conversion for a standard two storey dwelling; ground floor, first floor plus loft.
The loft will be divided into 2 parts; one bedroom, and an open space which we will use as a study.
I accept that the study cannot be declared as a bedroom as per our current plan. We’re fine with that.
Reading Approved Document B I understand the need for a protected stairway.
My question is:
When is a space too big to be accepted as a Landing?
I don’t really want to block off the study with another wall & door.
Thank you.
