Little Tokyo Lofts – Page 3

Industrial Lofts tend to have high ceilings making room for a separate loft space

Lofts in DTLA are converted industrial buildings like the GE Building in Little Tokyo for example, which have been converted into apartments from Penthouse lofts to studios. The term loft started to be used to describe open-concept spaces, where the entire layout of the living space was incorporated into one large room, resulting in a market trend you’ll some purpose-built loft-style condos that mimic the open concept style of the industrial lofts without the high ceilings.

Lofts are covetable which is a big part of their appeal, from the high ceilings to the spacious layouts. But the features that make them great also pose a few challenges, like creating privacy, ensuring visual flow, and decorating it so it doesn’t feel like you’re holed up in a stark warehouse. Of course, if you love stark industrial living spaces we know where to look for that kind of loft too.

People are eagerly looking for more flexible and open spaces, Lofts owners can take advantage of the high ceiling to actually add a loft, or simply by arranging furniture create the flexible living space they desire. It is really the art of living in a single room.

Here are a few ideas on how to optimize your loft or studio living space. Open shelves in the kitchen can make the wall a feature and reduce the bulk of traditional upper kitchen cabinets. Keep your color scheme neutral from one area to the next. This helps the whole space hang together. Attach your lighting elements to the walls and ceilings to free up floor space. Create a clutter collection station. When you have everything on show it is a great help to have a place to drop things off for sorting later.

420 S San Pedro St #631 loft condo unit for sale, transformed by easy balcony bar table

Turn a piece of wood into a cute, efficient balcony table. Here’s how we made it:

Smaller balconies sometimes call for bigger ideas when it comes to making them functional, fun and beautiful. For this small covered patio balcony at Little Tokyo Lofts unit 631, the home sellers originally had two footstool-sized low chairs on the balcony. While they matched and fit well, they were lacking in comfort, utility and dignity, being so low to the floor. To lift the spirits of this balcony, and to add more function and purpose, we found the perfect bar table that fits well, and clamps right onto the top of the balcony rail. We’ve also added two bar stools and a bench. Now, the balcony can be used for drinks, food, laptop, while seating four.

From a company in Holland called Balkon Bar, this balcony rail-top bar table is reasonably priced, perfectly fits the rail — and fits the bill. They cannot ship the wood to the U.S., but the hardware and instructions can be shipped. A 6 ft x 11.5 inch wood plank can then be purchased from Lowes, with three simple cuts done at no cost by Lowes. The wood then only needs sanding, stain, assembly and installation. We stained our poplar with navy blue stain to accent the aqua gray paint of Little Tokyo Lofts courtyard. It’s easy to clamp on to the balcony rail with the hardware. Use two people with very good grips when installing onto the rail, because gravity really wants to make you drop some or all of the pieces six stories down to the ground. Check out the BalkonBar.com balcony bar table website and assembly video.

With the added value of a fun 4-person balcony, the loft is more precious than ever, and the asking price has been reduced early for Loft Blog readers! $357,000. PROPERTY DETAILS | TOUR VIDEO.
