The design of loft-style apartments is in demand all over the world. This interior masterfully combines industrial minimalism with modern design. Perhaps because it offers all the charms and conveniences of a modern home, as well as a clean design and uncluttered style.
The concept of the loft style is brick walls, wooden floors and vaulted ceilings. To keep the design from appearing uninhabited, a sense of luxury and comfort is added to it, represented by soft leather sofas, wide beds and soft pillows.
DESIGN FEATURES OF APARTMENTS IN LOFT STYLE
- Open space: Traditional lofts typically have a minimum of 100 sq. m. The whole space is zoned due to color, light and furniture.
- Rough finishes: As a tribute to old industrial buildings, modern loft apartments do not have sophisticated finishes. In addition to industrial materials, the urban loft style also relies heavily on natural materials such as stone and wood.
- Authenticity: Concrete or wood floors, tin ceilings, thick brick or stucco walls are common.
- Huge Windows: Since old industrial buildings were built before the invention of electric light, factory windows were large to let in as much daylight as possible. In addition, it is unacceptable to use curtains in a loft style.
- Modern Furniture: Furniture that fits into the urban loft style is often similar to the minimalist style. Parts that have clean lines and are made from industrial materials such as glass and steel. Such furniture should zone the space. Therefore, it is unacceptable to place it along the walls.
- Color Palette: Colors should be reasonably muted, such as shades of gray or brown. One or two color accents should be chosen to add life and light to the space, as well as keep it clean and simple.
- Do not forget about accessories: paintings and figurines, posters with abstraction, even road signs will do.
Of course, the style is designed for large rooms, but it will also fit perfectly in studios and one-room apartments.
