loft apartment

Converted warehouse home

A loft apartment is a large, open living space converted from a former industrial or commercial building—typically a warehouse or factory.

Loft apartments feature high ceilings, exposed brick, visible ductwork, and minimal interior walls.

Originally occupied by artists seeking cheap space and natural light, lofts became desirable urban housing: They converted the old textile mill into loft apartments.
