Loft living is a large-scale open space where rooms within rooms are designed with furniture, color combinations, and focal points. The lofts of the past that put you in the mind of an industrial warehouse turned living space with exposed bricks and pipes have evolved into more comfortable, spaces with a welcoming homey atmosphere. The large area can be challenging to design and decorate but exciting to experiment with multiple colors and textures. For example, mixing contemporary and traditional furniture together or vintage pieces with country-inspired accents work wonderfully in a loft space.

Area Rugs Mark The Spot: The cool thing about a loft is that you can control how different spaces within the loft will be designed. Plus you can change the space whenever you decide. One of the easiest and effective ways to mark the spot is with an area rug. Our Viera Collection area rugs with a distinct high low profile offer a vintage look with a contemporary edge and will set the foundation for a room within a room. Their timeless styling will blend perfectly with other elements like furniture and window treatments in the room, too. 

Sensational Sectionals: A modern loft provides enough open space for plenty of seating and entertaining. Sofas, loveseats, recliners, and accent chairs are all options to consider. A sectional, like our Atelier Grammercy Two-Piece Sectional with Left Arm Chaise, offers a stylish approach to loft living. The left-arm chaise is eye-catching and provides a practical point of interest. The two pieces can be moved as needed to work around other furniture in the room.

Anchoring Tables & Accents: A coffee table or cocktail table provides a much-needed anchor in a loft space. Select one that is designed with multiple elements like our Four Hands Irondale Coffee Table. Modern metal framing complements the traditional styled quilted top and works great with any motif. It also follows today's trend of mixing and matching styles. Display a coffee table in front of a sofa or in the center of the room to achieve an organic aesthetic. Leave the top totally empty for a minimalist effect or display a flower arrangement or our Abila Wooden Tray to give miscellaneous items a decorative home.

Stand Out Accent Chairs: Accent chairs come in all shapes, sizes, and designs. They almost double as art within your loft-style home. The decorating sky is the limit with accent chairs. Select an identical pair to set side by side as part of the main seating area. Or select a chair that is totally different from any other furniture in the room. Our red City Light Accent Chair sizzles with style. This is a growing trend and one that adds a distinctive edge to loft spaces. Add even more interest to the stand-out chair by displaying a floor lamp or a faux plant close by. 

Today's loft is all about surrounding yourself with beautiful furniture and heartwarming accents that make you happy to be at home.
