sloped ceiling
Inclined upper surface
A sloped ceiling follows the angle of a roof rather than running parallel to the floor.
Common in attic rooms, lofts, and spaces directly under rooflines, sloped ceilings create architectural interest but limit where tall furniture can go: The sloped ceiling made it hard to find a spot for the bookshelf.
