Loft style New York apartment
How to integrate a loft style into a modern interior while maintaining the warmth and comfort of a homely atmosphere? How to combine industrial aesthetics in decoration and antique decor items or designer furniture? Answers to these questions can be obtained from a small photo tour of the living room of a New York apartment. A comfortable atmosphere, a combination of modern interior items and retro-style furniture, the use of contemporary art works of art - and all this on a few square meters while maintaining a sense of spaciousness and freedom.
Initially, the loft style arose in the arrangement of former industrial premises for residential apartments. Currently, to organize an interior in the spirit of industrial aesthetics, it is not necessary to live in a building that used to be a factory floor or a warehouse. If a city apartment has quite spacious rooms with high ceilings and large windows, then decorating its interior in a loft style will not be difficult. If you are disgusted by the use of such loft motifs as open communications, large columns and floor structures, displayed, then organizing brickwork as an accent of one of the walls is not difficult.
The lounge area is represented by a comfortable sofa with leather upholstery in a pleasant ocher shade, an original design coffee table and an arched floor lamp with a large fabric shade. Pleasant trifles that create a cozy atmosphere complete the image - a carpet with a print and worn effect and a small stand made of a wooden bar.
Using hemp as an interior item - is it not self-irony and the uniqueness of the design? Agree that it will take a little time and money to make such an original stand, and such a piece of furniture will bring a lot of natural heat and a touch of uniqueness to the living room.
A sofa with leather upholstery looks great against a brick wall, creating some brutal spirit in the living room interior. This is a fairly practical option for apartments where there are small children, and snow-white sofas can be present in the interior only as magazine illustrations. In order to somewhat soften the brutal design of the sofa, you can use more “comfortable” textiles as the design of sofa cushions. Soft velor or even fur will become not only the highlight of the recreation area, but will also bring color and texture diversity to the interior of the whole room.
During the daytime, there is enough natural light in the living room space, thanks to the large windows. For the dark period, there are several lighting options - a central chandelier for bright lighting at the time of the meeting of the whole family or receiving guests in the space of a common room. For a more intimate setting, the scattering illumination of a floor lamp with an arched tripod and a linen lampshade is more suitable.
A snow-white coffee table with a glossy surface of the countertop and steel shine of legs has become a touch of modernity in the image of the living room. Convenient, ergonomic shape and stable design allow the table to easily become a place to sit if several people gather in the living room for a reception or party.
As always, the overall impression of the design of the room is not only the appearance of the largest or brightest interior items. Any little things, decorative elements, textile decoration - everything forms our perception of this or that space design. Filling the interior with lovely little things, we not only decorate the room, but also make it incredibly personalized, unique.
On one side of the sofa is a bunk table. This is comfortable.The mobile station can serve both as a trolley for drinks and snacks at a party, and as a stand for books on ordinary days. TV lovers will also appreciate this piece of furniture in their living room. In addition, it is easy to transport from the kitchen and back with dirty dishes.
On the other side of the resting place is a segment of short meals. If two people live in the apartment, then a small round table and a pair of comfortable chairs may well organize a dining area.
Light in appearance, but stable and strong, in terms of its characteristics, the furniture of a small dining area does not burden the interior, contributes to the creation of a light and laid-back atmosphere in the entire living room. The background of light, translucent curtains gives an airy image to the segment of short meals.
A little vibrant greenery and the interior of the entire living room space is being transformed, filled with spring freshness and it seems that even the smell of fresh leaves can be felt by looking at the photo.
