CONTEMPORARY LOFT

A series of full and partial walls were removed to create an open space flowing from the dining area, through the kitchen with island, into the living room and media corner, and finally out onto the enclosed outdoor patio and fireplace. Since the focal points throughout the space would be colorful statement artworks, the backdrop was intentionally designed to more monochromatic – plain white walls, charcoal grey concrete floor finished in a high gloss, and simple, retractable blinds. Existing sliding barn doors were eliminated to provide additional wall space for art.

On the second floor, the neutral wall and floor coverings create a sense of continuity with main floor, once again letting the artwork make the main aesthetic statement.

Dramatic blue wallpaper was used in the master bathroom to create both contrast and escape. An unnecessary vanity area was transformed into a practical mini-kitchen with refrigerator and espresso maker for easy access to morning wake-up drinks and evening nightcaps.
