Loft Apartment: Small Space, Big Possibilities

Designing the interior of the lower floor of a loft apartment was a delightful challenge—and far from our first. We have extensive experience with loft apartment interiors, having successfully designed several. Each was different, but they all share a focus on functionality, light, and a unique atmosphere.

This high-ceilinged space had great potential on its own, which we decided to enhance with a light, timeless palette—a combination of white, cream, shades of gray, and wood decor. The entire design is based on the contrast of clean lines and warm natural materials.

Kitchen and Dining Area

We placed the L-shaped kitchen unit under the built-in sleeping loft and partially under the staircase. We utilized every centimeter, yet the result is not a cramped corner—quite the opposite. The open kitchen in a white-gray combination with bleached wood decor and white marble looks clean and elegant. Handleless opening (tip-on) and subtle lighting of the upper cabinets add to the comfort and visual clarity.

The kitchen is complemented by a dining area with a subtle extendable table for two to four people. It’s a place for a peaceful morning coffee or dinner with friends for four.

Connection with the Living Room

An original feature is the living room wall made of wooden slats—it serves not only as a place for the TV and storage but also visually separates the living area from the staircase. This keeps the space structured yet airy.

The heart of the living area is a mustard-colored sofa bed. It is complemented by a smart Tablies coffee table, a soft carpet, delicate wallpaper, and subtle shading with curtains and drapes. The high ceiling beautifully highlights the original pendant chandelier. Every element here has its place and purpose.

This small apartment feels calm, thoughtful, and timeless; it’s a place where living will be pleasant.
