Styling Tips for Loft Apartments
Loft apartments have emerged as a fresh perspective on the concept of luxury living, becoming one of the most beloved trends in the decoration world with their modern stance and practical designs. So, how should you decorate these apartments and with which pieces?
Davut Karaçak, Chairman of Loda Mobilya, shares valuable insights on loft decoration. With simple, modern, and functional living spaces, loft apartments have recently become a trend in luxury housing choices in Turkey. Typically converted from industrial spaces, garages, or hangars, loft apartments have started to be included in luxury projects as demand has increased. These spaces, usually located in attics, stand out with minimal wall usage and maximum natural light, often enhanced by loft-style ceilings.
Key Elements for Loft Decoration: Wood, Large Lighting, and Leather Upholstery
According to Davut Karaçak, wooden furniture is prominent in the decoration of spacious loft apartments. He notes, "Cities like New York, London, Paris, and Stockholm are at the forefront of loft architecture. Especially in historical and crowded cities, lofts are architecturally prominent in Europe. In our country, loft apartments have also become more common recently. The decoration of these apartments embraces a free understanding." He emphasizes that for loft home decoration, one should consider industrial wooden mix furniture, which adds a pleasant ambiance to your space.
Karaçak identifies lighting as one of the most important elements in loft decoration, stating that a good loft style requires the use of large and aesthetically pleasing lighting fixtures. To achieve a masculine structure in this style, he suggests incorporating vintage retro fabrics and leather-heavy upholstery. Applying Chesterfield effects to the arms of your sofas can add a distinct character to the decoration.
