Downtown Los Angeles Live-Work Lofts Compared To Residential Studio Apartments

 

What confusing array of choices when it comes to Downtown Los Angeles Live-Work Lofts, Studios, Apartments, Industrial Lofts, Commercial Buildings and Residential Buildings.  How do you Choose what is right for you?

Toy Factory

Decide what amenities you want is a good place to start.

This L.A. Loft Blog post will attempt to help clear it up so that those who want to live, work or live and work in the same place can find the right loft, condo or apartment space for them. Then we will list the buildings with lofts for sale and for lease.

Apartments vs Condos

In New York, an apartment in any condominium, co-op or building with several residential units.  In Los Angeles, the word “apartment” usually refers to managed rental buildings and their units that have one owner per building.  Because Southern California has very few co-ops, most units are only called “apartments” if it is a single owner of the entire building, and the units are all rentals.  The building and its units are called condos if they are individually owned. #dtla

Studio vs Loft

Size matters. When it comes to a place where we live or work all day, or sometimes work all night, we need to find the right fit for our use and for our budget. In most residential units in Southern California, when someone says “studio,” it usually refers to a studio apartment, which is a very small rental apartment or condo unit without a separate bedroom. The architecture is very small and open, with the bedroom and living room one in the same.  In Downtown, small lofts are not usually called a “studio” because Downtown is home to many photographers and other artists who are using their live-work loft as a professional photography studio or art studio and because most lofts are open lofts.  Most lofts do not have separate bedrooms.  Small lofts are usually referred to as a “small loft”.  For lofts in Downtown Los Angeles, small is usually around 500 to 700 sq ft, a medium is around 700 to 900 sq ft, large is around 900 to 1,100 and very large would be around 1,200 or more.  These are all subject to the interpretation of course, but these are the common numbers for many renters and buyers of Downtown L.A. lofts.  Are you a big Loft Space Person or a Studio on a Postage stamp in the center of it all.  What would you choose? Leave a comment here.

Live/Work vs Residential

Live-work lofts are all the rage because of their popular open architecture, industrial style, and character that is considered hip and modern when the kitchen and bathrooms are updated with stainless appliances and granite countertops. Many renters and buyers of lofts use live-work lofts almost exclusively for residential purposes. Many others are using lofts for creative work such as photography, painting, graphic arts or music. Musicians need to know that live music cannot be played loudly in any residential or live-work buildings in Downtown Los Angeles. Heavy industrial, construction and other loud noisy industries are also generally not acceptable in any Downtown Los Angeles live/work building.

In Downtown Los Angeles, there are exceptions to many of the rules. All buildings will vary on what type of work they will allow, how many customers may visit etc. None of the live/work lofts will let you have a cash register in your unit with a line coming out of the door.  But even the residential properties will let you have a business client or two come every day for consultations etc. Here is a complete list of live work buildings around Downtown L.A. for sale and for lease: #artsdistrict
