Following are some of the best examples of warehouse to loft conversions to take place in the US.
Publisher’s Print Shop in San Francisco
Many of the best real estate renovation projects with warehouses involve mixing elements of the old industrial world with the new, more comfortable one. This 1910 building in San Francisco was recreated by a designer called Steven Volpe. It benefits from 18-foot ceilings and huge wooden columns that make it particularly attractive as a loft space.
Although the building opens up to the side with glass work, the shrubs outside and the red brick work help to create a more appealing look. Additionally, the columns inside the building divide the space into pockets that are ideal for zone-based design. If it wasn’t already a home and apartment space, this environment would have been perfect for an open-plan office design.
