tower room
Elevated enclosed space
A tower room is a room situated within a tower, typically in a castle, mansion, or historic building.
These rooms occupy the upper stories of a cylindrical or angular projection, often featuring curved walls, small windows, and views from multiple directions.
Tower rooms carry romantic and Gothic associations—the imprisoned princess, the mad wife, the solitary scholar: She retreated to the tower room to write.
