5 of the most beautiful of the little-known lofts

The currently fashionable loft space can be decoratedin the most unexpected way. How do modern designers do it? We will tell you in our article today Do you love lofts as much as we do? Yes? Then you will surely like our selection of little-known, but very impressive apartments collected from all over the world. This loft in Sao Paulo, Brazil is a hymn to the modern bachelor interior: severity, cold, concrete and style. Although, to be completely honest, now there are girls who admire bare concrete in all its manifestations - be it a ceiling, a lamp or an entire bathroom with a sink, as in this interior. With bachelors everything is clear, but can it beloft space comfortably accommodate a family of, say, four people? In these Brooklyn two-story apartments - perhaps even more comfortably. The designers tried to diversify the space as much as possible and provide a cozy corner for each inhabitant of this bright loft. This loft in Praia Brava is mind-blowingnot only by the variety of details, but also by its size. How many meters do you think it is - 400, 500? No, only 220. And the secret of the visual "immensity" is precisely in that very variety of textures, surfaces and details. Just over 100 years ago, this building was thunderingstirrers and smelled of cinnamon. In the late 20th century, the National Biscuit Company bakery was converted into a residential building, and today it is home to a couple of collectors who have amassed several containers of eclectic furniture, vintage items, and art over the course of their lives. It would be hard to imagine a better setting for such a diverse collection. And this white loft in Gothenburg attracted usFirst of all, its size - there are only 36 square meters on two floors! The kitchen is hidden in the corner, the living room is represented by a small sofa and a tiny coffee table, and upstairs there is a bed and a workspace, but despite all the whiteness and compactness, this apartment gives the impression of a bright, light and even spacious loft. Loft style housing is not suitable for everyone,However, to understand whether you will be able to comfortably settle into the conditions of a bohemian attic, and whether your current apartment can handle such a modernization, just answer yourself a few questions.

  • Are you a representative of a creative profession?Initially, lofts presented themselves to the world as art studios. Therefore, if you prefer a calculator to an easel or, at worst, a sewing machine, you are unlikely to find your true self in a loft.
  • Do you like walking? Lofts are famous for their very spacious rooms and long spiral staircases. Are you sure you are ready for such cardio?
  • Have you ever worked in a factory?The loft gravitates towards the industrial style, so if your answer is yes, think about whether you are ready to have breakfast every day in a room that clearly resembles a manufacturing workshop. A negative answer can be considered a guaranteed immunity from an unwanted feeling of déjà vu.
  • Does your current apartment have high ceilings, huge windows and vast spaces? The answer is yes? Then the last question will dot all the i's.
  • Walk into the kitchen and look up.Do you see ventilation pipes, gracefully hanging wires, or at least dully rattling grilles covering something chrome and cylindrical? Yes? Congratulations! You are the proud owner of a loft space and can safely tear off the plaster from the walls - there is probably brickwork waiting for you there.
