The way you decorate your home is an art in itself. The interior and design of each home is different and the feelings exuded by every space will also differ from each other.
One particular style that has been very popular in recent years is the loft style interior design.
A lot of people have been trying to recreate the atmosphere of a loft in their homes. This particular style emphasizes the raw and sophisticated at the same time.
The origins of loft style can be traced back to the middle of 19th century France, right after the Industrial Revolution.
At this time, a lot of factories were abandoned and these were sold as warehouses or used as artist studios.
Since they were meant to serve an industrial purpose, interior beauty was not of primary concern while building them.
However, these features and the exposed raw material around the space are what accidentally created the charming loft style that we know today. This style is cool and warm at the same time.
The materials primarily used in lofts are brick walls, wooden beams, bare cement and steel. The fittings like pipes and ventilation are generally exposed as well.
This industrial aesthetic can be achieved in a modern home by using exposed brick. Subway tiles can be used in bathrooms or kitchens as an accent.
Using neutrals and lighter shades will allow you to add the classic drywall feature to your home. Using darker colors will make the space look smaller.
