A modern loft bathroom - how to arrange it?

August 2020
A modern loft bathroomA loft bathroom is a dream of many, not only owners of spacious interiors in post-industrial buildings. How to arrange a loft bathroom? Is it possible to try this style in a small space? Read our guide!

A loft bathroom is the answer to the needs of lovers of austere, minimalist style, which has already been in our interiors for good. Lofts are definitely different from warm and cosy arrangements, which still dominate many apartments. However, concrete, brick and cast iron can also look very stylish and industrial design can be synonymous with good taste and taste.

Loft bathroom - how to arrange it?

The choice of style in the bathroom is fundamental. Especially the decision to furnish a loft bathroom should be made at an early stage of interior design, because this style is characterized by exposing structural elements that are most often hidden in other interior styles. A modern loft bathroom should have exposed ceiling pillars and beams, exposed fragments of the wall or installations protruding from the wall. The style of the lofts are concrete surfaces (or concrete-style), raw finish, gray cement and minimalism. It is best to look for inspiration in factories. What to choose?

The focal point of every bathroom is the bathtub or shower enclosure. In a loft interior, the style and material of which it is made will be particularly important. BLACK LINE is a collection of SanSwiss shower enclosures with industrial elements in matt black. It is a perfect combination of maximum functionality of the product with minimalist aesthetics of form. Such a cabin in a loft interior will look great - especially if we put on an open walk-in model, which is associated with the openness and austere character of post-industrial interiors.

Having such a strong and stylistically distinct point in the bathroom space, it is enough to complement it with appropriate elements: a loft bathroom cupboard, combining metal and wood, industrial lighting, e.g. Eden light bulbs hanging on cables, and microconcrete or cement textured or brick-like tiles for wall finishing. In this way a loft bathroom can be created even in an ordinary block of flats!

A small loft bathroom - is that possible?

The loft style was born in the 1950s, in the United States. As a result of the recession, many companies ended their operations at that time, which left empty warehouses, factories and production halls. The first tenants became artists, creating from huge, raw, empty spaces of apartments, studios and exhibition spaces. One such artist was Andy Warhol, who founded Silver Factory on the premises of a former hat factory.

However, we are not all lucky enough to have a high interior in the former factory hall. Does this mean that we should give up our dream of an elegant, minimalist loft bathroom? Certainly not!

A small loft bathroom, if we think about the project well, will be both functional and aesthetic complement to an industrial-style apartment. In a small space, a shower cabin is certainly the best choice. Check out our Industrial Shower Cabin Guide.

In a small loft-style interior, discipline and attention to minimalism are important. The expressive form of the shower enclosure should be the focal point of the loft-style bathroom, with no excess of accessories. One of the modern finishing materials – micro concrete, which will give a small bathroom a raw and minimalist look - will work well here.
