How to decorate a loft: 5 ideas to make your loft feel like home

A loft apartment is highly covetable for many reasons: spacious layouts, high ceilings, and unique building elements that aren’t found in many residential spaces. If you have been coveting a loft of your own or are lucky enough to be in possession of one, you may be struggling to make your industrial-style space feel like home. For five ideas to decorate and personalize your loft, check out these loft-worthy decor ideas.

1. Statement lighting

Switching out your loft’s ceiling lights can do a lot to transform a room. Choose lamps made of coloured glass, metal, or natural materials to create a visual focal point you (and your guests) won’t be able to look away from.
