Young families and single men under the age of 30 are usually interested in loft-style interiors. Today, loft is associated with independence, originality, and a pro-American lifestyle. Usually it seems dark, brutal and urban cozy, but in fact, even such a seemingly authentic style can be very, very different.

For example, in Spain, caramel-white lofts are popular, in Mexico - purple-white or black-and-white, in Turkey, lofts are most often decorated in black and gray tones, while the original American ones are made up of shades of red brick, dark wood, black and red. . What color your loft will be is up to you!

You might be surprised, but a loft doesn’t even have to be brutal. Natural brick can be replaced with decorative one, exposed concrete can be replaced with special plaster, forged and iron parts can be soft and even delicate to the touch sculptural forms, and the shine of chrome steel can be left only to the plumbing fixtures in the kitchen!

So, the loft is suitable for everyone who loves it. With an open layout, proper artificial lighting and stylized furniture, it will fit perfectly into the interior of any apartment, be it a modest Khrushchev apartment or a luxury penthouse!

The loft style is very multifaceted and can create an incredibly different atmosphere in the interior. For example, “exclusively masculine”, “American”, “advanced”, “languidly glamorous”, “in the rhythm of the big city” and many others. By choosing a color scheme that matches your worldview, you will receive an interior that is correctly selected for you!

Studio design in loft style
A studio in the loft style looks much more expensive, more luxurious and modern than a studio in the minimalist, Scandinavian style or many other similar options. The thing is that in an apartment of this type a theme, an “American mood” appears, as well as contrast and depth. Thanks to the use of several finishing materials - ceramic tiles, parquet, brick, iron and wooden parts, such an interior in the studio will look more impressive than just a light one, and even more functional.

In the interior of a loft-style studio, it is customary to abandon the dining group in favor of an island with a bar counter or just a bar counter. And instead of a bed, most often we will see here a folding sofa as a sleeping place.

Zoning is usually carried out only for the bathroom and loggia. And it is best to use black doors with glass (frosted or transparent, depending on the circumstances).

Two details are very important in the studio - the absence of low furniture (around 1.4–2.5 meters) and the presence of a large number of diffused light sources. Usually the latter is achieved through wall and ceiling lamps in black or chrome, as well as additional floor lamps, lighting for the kitchen apron and furniture. There should be no low furniture at all, all cabinets should be built-in, otherwise you will ruin the look of the loft. But console, coffee and side tables are needed in large quantities.

Loft-style apartment for an IT specialist. In this article, we decided to share with you an interesting design solution from the ICON renovation design bureau , which creates unique turnkey interiors in Moscow and the Moscow region!
The company was contacted by a young IT specialist working in Moscow City who had several requirements for the design and renovation of his new one-room apartment.
He wanted an open, bright and urban space, a loft-style renovation and an island for several people in the center of the room for meeting friends. The owner of the apartment spends a lot of time at work, and often has lunch and dinner in restaurants, so he wanted to make his apartment as simple and concise as possible.
Initially, the apartment was one-room, with a small and uncomfortable kitchen, and a narrow and long living room. The designers decided to combine the living room (with a sleeping area on the podium), kitchen and hallway into one space so that there was more light in the apartment.
Spectacular glass partitions on a black metal frame were made according to designers’ sketches in a local workshop. The natural oak podium is also custom-made. The designers placed the dressing room in the place of the former hallway, behind the bed, so as not to place a large and bulky wardrobe somewhere in plain sight.
The interior design of the kitchen is particularly noteworthy. The built-in set has a U-shape, and the accent wall is decorated with “brick” panels.
The peninsula allows you to place a dining area for 4–5 people.
The designers calculated the most convenient distance between the sink and the stove for such a layout, which was 1.45 meters. The water cooler was placed in a prominent place, blending seamlessly into the interior.
Repairs, selection of furniture and materials were also carried out by specialists from the ICON bureau. Thanks to well-coordinated work in one company, it was possible to complete the project and please the owner with a dream come true in a very short time.
In the bathroom we installed FAP tiles for 3,000 m² rubles, a construction shower tray with a screen cost 70 thousand rubles, a cabinet with a mirror cost 30 thousand rubles, a wall-hung toilet with a hidden cistern cost about 45 thousand rubles.
The total budget for repairs (work, materials, furniture) amounted to 2.1 million rubles.

Design of a one-room apartment in loft style
For a one-room apartment, it is better to choose an open plan. Attach a loggia, make an office on it and install sliding doors in the loft style (black frames, with black glazing), completely combine the kitchen with the living room and hall, and in the bedroom make an exit to the living room with glass sliding doors. It is also better to place the largest possible dressing rooms in the hallway and bedroom.

It is better if you have built-in furniture in the living room (ebony library, floor-to-ceiling wardrobe in black). In an apartment on the south side you can use black furniture; on the north side in the shade it is better to give preference to a white and gray palette for any type of loft.

A one-room loft-style apartment will look most advantageous if directly from the hallway there is a view of the kitchen with an island or bar counter, the living room and glazing in the living room. This can be achieved by demolishing partitions. It is better to expand the bedroom at the expense of the living room by adding a large built-in dressing room.

The interior of a one-room loft-style apartment will be even more impressive if you add suspended ceilings with lighting throughout the apartment, and also expand the bathroom through the corridor, which will make it more spacious.

Simple DIY ideas: loft in ordinary apartments
Rough business
It may be unusual for you to leave the walls or ceiling as is, because classic renovation involves leveling out everything that is uneven.
If you are the owner of an apartment where there is at least one “open” brick wall, then do not rush to take on plaster. The brick has no flaws, does not crumble - leave the wall. The same applies to concrete slabs on the ceiling: do not try to sew up or paint over the seams in the slabs. Firstly, over time there is a high probability of cracks. Secondly, this is a godsend for our loft. Just clean out the seams and paint the canvas in the desired shade. By giving up plaster, you will save a lot if the initial rough finish allows.
Wall to wall
The absence of exposed brickwork can be replaced with clinker tiles. The main thing here is not to overdo it. Clinker, even the best and most expensive, will look too intrusive. This can be just one wall - the rest is ready for painting.
In a non-panel apartment, decorative plaster will help create concrete walls. For greater authenticity, lines are drawn on fresh plaster, imitating concrete slabs, or decorated with metal elements.
Zoning
You can divide space not only with walls. Decorative beams on the ceiling will separate the kitchen area from the living room/bedroom.
Another characteristic feature of true lofts is the bar counter. It will draw an additional border in the apartment and can be used as a kitchen island.
Bath in plain sight
Integrating a bath into the open space of a studio apartment is an idea for the brave. Although not new, spied on from modern fashionable hotels.
Wiring
By saving on stripping, you can make wall decorations from exposed wiring. Retro wiring looks especially beautiful.
Tree
A sliding barn door “a la” is suitable for a small apartment, as it does not take up much space, unlike a swing door. For the floor, a good choice would be parquet or laminate to look like aged wood.
Kitchen interior in loft style
A loft-style kitchen can be black, white, gray, black-red, brown-black and even white! A loft is, first of all, the presence of an island and a bar counter, open space and expensive, high-quality large-sized furniture, and not at all a specific color or format.
In the photo: Loft style in kitchen interior design
For example, the facades can even be multi-colored, and the island can either have a single design with the suite, or be completely steel (in the style of a professional kitchen in a Michelin-starred restaurant) or even made of wood. In fact, the contrasting island set is even better and more original than the standard one “from the kit”. But choosing the right one can be difficult.

A loft-style kitchen usually has several contrasting elements. They are noticeable due to their dark or bright color, large dimensions or special lighting. In principle, it is customary to make the kitchen set the focal point of the kitchen-living room or even the entire apartment.

Characteristics of the loft style
A characteristic architectural trend called loft arose as a result of the American crisis of the early 20th century. Bankrupt companies, trying to return at least part of the funds, began to massively sell production premises, which were bought by artists, sculptors, representatives of other professions related to art, and various types of creativity.
Example
They organized studios and workshops in them and lived there. The main features of the style are:
- spacious rooms, large windows, high ceilings;
- the presence of utility systems, pipes, metal interior elements, stairs, rough wooden products in the premises;
- zoning of the common space into functional areas: rest, work, cooking;
- comfortable living, expressed in the presence of comfortable upholstered furniture, modern appliances, and expensive accessories.
Living room interior in loft style
A loft-style living room is usually aimed at movie nights, but looks like an ideal place for parties. In fact, there may well be only one sofa, which is used in 99% of cases only by the owner, although the area of the living room itself can be 25 or 30 square meters. meters!
In the photo: Loft-style living room with concrete ceiling
A loft-style living room must have original lighting on the ceiling, black design elements, ideally black windows with dark glass, decorative shelving or libraries made of metal or wood, as well as accessories (sculptures, paintings, etc.) in the loft style.
A loft-style living room is usually decorated in dark colors, but this is not necessary. In a small living room in a “Khrushchev” or “socket” building, black can only be used on some kind of accent wall (with or opposite the TV). The remaining walls can be white, decorated with decorative white brick, pale gray, beige. It is best if black elements are used in minimal quantities. You can afford black furniture and walls only starting from an area of 30 square meters. meters. The exception is the kitchen, coffee table, built-in wardrobe or shelving - these elements can be black even in a small apartment.
In the photo: Loft-style living room with wooden ceiling
A loft-style living room combined with a bedroom usually has a bed on a podium or even in an alcove. Often such a bed stands against an accent wall or has a prominent, bright headboard. It is not uncommon for loft style designers to opt for a folding sofa or a private bedroom, even in a very limited area.

For a loft-style living room, glazing is very important. If you have the opportunity to redevelop, the interior designer will definitely advise you to install large floor-to-ceiling windows (expand the opening with the balcony door to a rectangular window-door block 3 by 2-3 meters) with black frames. It is best if the glazing of the loggia and balcony itself is with black frames of the same format (from floor to ceiling, and ideally also from wall to wall).
In the photo: Loft-style living room with a brick wall
By the way, a kitchen-living room in a loft style can be arranged on 15–16 square meters, if you need to redevelop a one-room apartment into a two-room apartment. Just use less bulky and black furniture!

Loft and children
There is an opinion that the loft is not intended for children. In 90% of cases this is true, since the interior uses iron elements and a lot of black and dark brown (dark red) colors. But if you choose gray and white colors and wooden furniture, then you have no reason to deny yourself a loft-style renovation in your apartment, even if you have small children.

But it is worth recognizing that toys and many other children’s things in a loft-style interior often seem like alien elements. Many parents have found a “cunning” solution - to buy only “stylish” toys, but this leads to excessive asceticism in the shapes and colors that a child needs so much in the first 15 years of his life! Therefore, if you have children, it’s worth taking bright toys as a starting point and making your loft snow-white, gray-white or beige-white!
