With all the fickleness of fashion trends, some styles manage to stay afloat for decades. And the loft is one of them, because every year it only acquires new features and details. A loft-style kitchen is at the same time unusual, creative, practical and multifunctional. Here the advantages of the industrial style are fully revealed. And we'll tell you how to use them!
Features of the loft style
The loft fits most harmoniously into functional rooms, because the style itself is initially industrial. Therefore, it will come in handy in the kitchen, especially if you properly arrange communications and choose household appliances.
A loft requires open space, so fitting it into a small and cramped kitchen is problematic. Otherwise, it is completely eclectic, so you can combine rough textures, elegant minimalism and catchy, flashy accessories.
Loft is open communications: ventilation, wiring, boilers, household appliances, gas pipelines. The main thing is to take care of the insulation, but you don’t need to sew everything into walls, boxes and hide behind facades.
In loft interiors there is a lot of deliberate roughness, negligence, and untreated surfaces. This is convenient and practical for the kitchen, because work and life are constantly in full swing here.
Advantages of the loft style in the kitchen interior
- You will not need to think about how to hide pipes, beams and numerous wires from prying eyes - all this is a feature of the “industrial style” and will only add originality to the kitchen interior.
- You can arrange the furniture at your discretion, based on personal considerations regarding the ease of use of certain items (for example, the loft style allows the placement of a stove or sink in the center of the kitchen).
- Kitchen furniture may have scuffs, rust, cracks, but at the same time fit perfectly into the interior, giving it even more originality.
Color spectrum
Loft-style kitchens are dominated by calm and restrained classic colors: black, white, gray, brown. And bright colors are well suited for accents, textiles and decorations. These can be acidic neon shades, or fashionable deep complex tones.
Black kitchen in loft style
For spacious and large kitchens with wide windows and plenty of light, a black finish would be an interesting solution. It always looks noble, elegant and stylish, and against its background any bright accents look completely different.
White kitchen in loft style
If you like lighter and brighter interiors, white color will come to your aid. With its help you can create a cozy and elegant loft kitchen with an emphasis on popular Scandinavian trends.
Gray kitchen in loft style
The variety of shades of gray opens up almost limitless space for experimentation. A stylish and bright interior can be achieved even in one neutral color scheme, combining dark graphite with steel, and cold bluish with warm taupe.
Green kitchen in loft style
Noble dark green shades are a stylish neutral background for an industrial style. It is lighter than dull black and brighter than calm gray, and against its background, aged wood, copper and bronze accessories, cast iron and forging look advantageous.
Brown kitchen in loft style
Brown in the loft is used not only in the form of natural wood. Terracotta shades of raw brickwork, fading into red, are combined with matching accessories and textiles to match.

Loft style kitchen furniture
Furniture for kitchens in the loft style is laconic and functional, made of wood, glass or metal. The lower tier of sets closed with massive doors is combined with open upper shelves. This way, all the heavy utensils can be hidden inside, and small appliances, jars, spices and copper utensils will become practical decorations in their own right.
A bar counter with massive high bar stools, an antique cabinet, and a separate kitchen island will fit well into the loft. A large wooden dining table with epoxy resin inserts looks interesting.
Loft country house projects
Construction companies create a variety of industrial-style projects for customers whose priorities are laconic design, lack of fuss and the ability to breathe deeply. A custom-made loft-style country house often includes various styles, from minimalism to country. Often a loft becomes an old building that is rebuilt, restored and turned into both spectacular and comfortable housing. During construction, techniques are used that emphasize the industrial direction in housing design:
- Materials
. Foam and gas blocks are often used for construction and renovation - an economical way to enhance style. Indispensable attributes are aged wood and concrete. The metal surface should have a matte appearance, without a bright metallic sheen, preferably with noticeable marks of patina or rust.

- Color
. The basis for color solutions will be the color palette of an industrial premises: white and black, as well as shades of gray, blue, brown, red, khaki. Bright accents are allowed, but only in the form of large fragments.
- Details
. A traditional farmhouse with a gable roof and a chimney will be transformed by panoramic windows, metal structures, corner bay windows and massive sliding doors. In the exterior decoration, vertical siding looks good, emphasizing the simplicity of the design.
Decor
The best decor for a functional kitchen in the loft style is carefully selected furniture with beautiful handles, fittings and other details. Fancy metal lamps, floor lamps with lampshades, forged elements and cast concrete accessories will complement the picture well. Pay attention to wooden frames and stands, bronze hooks on wooden bases, and steampunk style elements.
Conceptual features of the loft direction
Loft is a “guy” without complexes. He is not ashamed of his own proletarian origin. Interiors in this style are characterized by:
- large, industrial footage,
- rough, industrial materials,
- open, without internal partitions of space,
- engineering units, communications, pipes and shafts not hidden from view,
- tall, often floor-length window structures,
- strict, “factory” palette,
- non-standard, unique decorative items.
It turns out that loft is a style variety in which the form determines the content. However, as time has shown, it is possible to apply its features, creating a symbiosis of industry with art, not only in large rooms. But also in standard apartments, even in an ordinary kitchen. After all, the main thing is to convey the philosophy of style, not the letter, but the spirit!

Curtains and textiles
Textiles and curtains in particular are not a mandatory attribute of spacious and bright industrial premises. But still, not every kitchen can do without them - this is not always practical.
The most harmonious are the same industrial collections: blinds, interior shutters and roller blinds of all types and shades. If you prefer more classic interpretations, pay attention to the floor-length curtains made of thick fabric on a simple metal frame. They are inappropriate near the work surface, but are good in the dining area or kitchen-living room.
Avoid excessive decor: lambrequins, multi-tiered curtains, lace napkins and decorations. Leave maximum functionality: hooks, potholders, stands - only the essentials. And you can add coziness with the help of bright sofa upholstery, colorful decorative pillows or chair cushions.
Materials and design
The main advantage of a loft is its versatility, so the materials for such an interior can be almost anything. This allows you to make the kitchen completely individual and unique. No strict classical style with clear canons gives so much space for self-expression.
Floor finishing
If you still have old wood flooring on your kitchen floor, you can simply tidy it up and coat it with a protective compound. This solution is ideal for a loft; it is inexpensive and looks stylish.
Tiles, porcelain stoneware, stone slabs and arbitrary combinations of all these materials look good. The main thing is to choose wear-resistant and non-porous coatings that are resistant to moisture, because the kitchen is always directly connected with dirt, stains, moisture and grease.
Ceiling design
If the ceiling height allows, leave open pipes, ventilation ducts and other communications: this immediately sets the appropriate atmosphere in the loft kitchen. If there is not enough space, pay attention to suspended structures - cassette, slatted, plasterboard.
There is no room in a loft for a perfect, flawless whitewash, and even classic stretch ceilings are rarely used. But you can safely install any lamps to your taste, and not worry about where to hide the wires and hangers.
Wall decoration
To decorate the walls in loft-style kitchens, the most simple and concise materials are used: paint, stone, brick, concrete. Keep in mind that overly textured surfaces are more difficult to clean from dirt and grease. Therefore, it is better to leave the bare brick wall further away: for example, near the dining area.
You can safely combine different textures: painting with stonework, tiles with wood. Use bright accents: a red brick wall on a concrete background, colorful posters and modern paintings, abstract geometric panels.
Advantages and disadvantages of the loft style
A loft-style kitchen is an ideal solution for people who keep up with the times, live dynamically and uninhibitedly.
The urban beauty of the concrete jungle, replete with metal, concrete and glass, has nothing in common with the pastoral serenity of cozy country houses.
When creating such a style, it is necessary to discard all conventions and not be afraid to implement the most incredible and shocking ideas using non-trivial materials.
A loft-style kitchen will always look bold, modern, unusual and fashionable.
Advantages of such an interior:
- Any communications that are present in the kitchen (pipes, beams, brickwork, etc.) can and should be left as they are, without wasting effort and money on disguising them;
- When equipping such a room, you can not adhere to generally accepted rules and arrange all interior items at your own discretion (for example, place a stove or sink in the center of the kitchen);
- All used interior items can have the most unpresentable appearance - scuffs, rust, cracks, and at the same time they will look great together, creating a unique style.
This style also has its disadvantages:
- according to domestic legislation, a loft-style apartment located in an abandoned plant or factory simply cannot be privatized or registered in it;
- a real industrial building in which a “loft” is located may have harmful fumes and waste within its walls, so the environmental attractiveness of such a home is not always high;
- a loft is usually a large room with huge windows, which is difficult and expensive to heat in winter; in addition, considerable costs will be required to soundproof it.
Fortunately, recreating the loft style in the kitchen interior is possible even in a city apartment. True, this will require some effort.
Lighting and backlighting
Light in a loft is fundamentally important, because a large, spacious room with a rough finish requires thoughtful lighting. Use suspended slatted systems that are installed zonally in islands or stretched along one of the walls. They provide soft diffused light and look interesting with metal, copper, forged or textile lampshades.
An interesting decorative technique is ordinary incandescent light bulbs directly on cords and wires. A more elegant alternative is lamps styled like street lamps, spotlights, kerosene lamps or candlesticks.
For local lighting, LED strip is traditionally used, and less often, neon sticks. To illuminate the work area, take compact built-in lights around the perimeter. You can even combine devices from completely different and unrelated collections, which will give that same eclectic effect.
Furniture in the loft kitchen
Do you want to focus on the urbanism of the interior? - Then give preference to laconic, minimalist items. They can be made from natural, environmentally friendly materials, as well as from new and even new ones, with a high-tech twist.
A universal option is furniture made of wood, aluminum and glass. Glass tabletops will soften the severity of the environment, and eco-leather seats will make it more homely and comfortable.
In principle, the kitchen set can be very ordinary, for example, from Ikea. After all, wall cabinets and cabinets are not so difficult to style as wooden, metal or even concrete boxes. And the decor will be complemented by storage systems made of meshes and pipes, open metal racks or display cases, and hanging shelves.
Idea! Loft is a great companion for retro style. Bar stools carried over from the 50s, a leather sofa, and a vintage serving table transform a simple kitchen into an atmospheric, unique corner.
By the way, when choosing furniture attributes, you need to remember that they should be pragmatic and functional. Ornate, empty, meaningless aesthetics have no place in a loft kitchen.
When distributing furniture, do not discount the shape of the room. For example, a long and narrow kitchen can be visually adjusted by arranging large items in a U-shape.
In rectangular rooms with sufficient width, it is permissible to place sets along one of the walls.
And in square rooms, furniture modules and appliances can stand around the perimeter, framing an “island” consisting of a dining table and chairs.
Apron for a loft style kitchen
A loft for a kitchen is good precisely because of its practicality and the ability to combine incongruous things. Even if you leave sloppy bare concrete walls, this doesn’t mean you can’t lay out a decorative mosaic tile backsplash. On the contrary, such a game of contrasts always looks advantageous. Untreated brickwork also looks good as an apron. Just keep in mind that you will have to constantly wash and clean it, so it is better to cover it with a glass plate. But with smooth tiles there are fewer problems: just choose the right grout and pre-treat all the seams.
Design of a kitchen-living room in a loft style
Lofts are best suited for large combined kitchen-living rooms, because at its core the style gravitates towards spacious multifunctional spaces. For pronounced zoning, use an island layout: a separate soft corner with a large sofa upholstered in leather, a suite, and through shelving.
The interior will be stylishly complemented by a decorative fireplace, fashionable concrete flowerpots with succulents, and elegant retro radiators. Leave rough wooden boards on the floor and a bright, high-pile carpet near the seating area. A full-fledged home bar with a massive bar counter made of wood or artificial stone looks interesting.
Corner kitchen in loft style
Zoning is a common technique in a loft, but instead of partitions and screens, a competent arrangement of furniture and accessories is used. In this regard, corner kitchens are good, as they allow you to separate the work area from the dining area. These zones can even be completely different stylistically or in materials, because the loft is eclectic.
Design of a small kitchen in loft style
Fitting a loft into a small kitchen is quite difficult, because it requires space for maneuver. But you can use individual expressive elements even in a small kitchen - and use them to your advantage.
With a limited budget, a loft allows you to save on finishing, and if the area is small, it allows you to save valuable centimeters. After all, bare walls do not need to be carefully leveled with a thick layer of plaster or covered with voluminous panels.
Instead of large pendant lights, leave tracks or line up a series of spotlight LEDs. This technique visually expands the room and provides uniform, comfortable lighting.
Replace massive and heavy wooden furniture with lightweight frame structures, aluminum, glass, acrylic. They fit into the loft as harmoniously as aged classics with a retro touch.
Tips for decorating a small kitchen (in Khrushchev)
Tip 1: Add minimalism
In a small kitchen, you should stick to a minimalist design. Industrial motifs remain, but there will be significantly fewer accessories.
Let there be fewer decorations in the interior, but they will be very original and noticeable.
Tip 2: Choose light colors
Light colors visually expand the space, so for kitchens up to 9 sq.m. – this is the optimal solution.
Tip 4: Choose straight, L-shaped kitchen units or shelves instead of mezzanines
- An L-shaped set is suitable for square rooms. The use of a corner area adds functionality to the setting.
- Direct or linear arrangement of the set is a solution for rectangular kitchens.
Tip 5: Compact dining area
You can install a bar counter with miniature chairs or a window-sill table that makes the most of the window area.
For a small family of 2 people, a small square table in the corner will solve the problem of lack of square meters.
Tip 7: Consider remodeling
In many Khrushchev buildings, the wall between the living room and the kitchen is not load-bearing and its demolition can easily be legalized in the BTI. As a result, you will get a spacious studio-type room, which meets the main distinctive features of the style.
This may be interesting: How to move the kitchen into the living room?
- The resulting new kitchen-living room area is an ideal base for realizing the idea.

- Thanks to the redevelopment, two dining areas can be placed in one room at once: a large one for receiving guests, a compact one for a quick snack during a lunch break, for example, in the form of a bar counter.

Loft style kitchen – photos of real interiors
It is almost impossible to reflect all the diversity of the loft in one article, because this is one of the most comprehensive modern interior styles. To make it easier for you to understand the concept and its main features, we offer this selection of photographs!
Advantages and disadvantages of one-story loft-style houses
The recognition and popularity of the loft style are determined primarily by its main positive features:
- loft home design is always individual and unique;
- This is an opportunity to show creativity;
- does not require large financial expenses;
- the absence of unnecessary items, restraint and minimalism create comfort and facilitate care;
- free space promotes proper rest and relaxation;
- use of natural, environmentally friendly materials.
While listing all the undeniable advantages of this modern style, it is necessary to note its disadvantages:
- the lack of partitions and a large area of premises create problems during the heating season, since the building takes a long time to warm up and it is difficult to retain heat in it;
- large window sizes promote weathering;
- the costs of paying for utilities are significant;
- This interior style is not perceived by everyone. It is especially unacceptable for people with conservative views.
