When we think lofts… exposed brick, light, unique wall shelving, timber framing maybe, cozy all come to mind. The idea of loft living has become appealing and desirable to increasing numbers of young people and inner city dwellers worldwide.
The lack of walls and other types of dividers makes it trickier to create separate spaces, such as the kitchen area, dining area, living area, etc. within a large room. In this post I’ve round up a few helpful tips for designing the various areas within a loft and also provide inspirational images of a few lofts.
- A good way to separate areas in your loft space is to use furniture as dividers.
- Carpeting or different floor finishes can also help distinguish different areas.
- Painting one side of the walls of a room one color, and the other side a different, can also help differentiate between the two.
- It is also wise to think about what the focal point of such a large space should be.
Number one thing to keep in mind, is to to maximize the efficiency of a space.
