New York-style Lofts in London

New York-style Lofts in London

An industrial style, warm exposed brick, classic New York charm… It’s no wonder that New York-style Lofts are a favourite choice for shoot locations. However, we can’t all hop on a plane and shoot some scenes or set a photoshoot in the big apple itself. Luckily, we have some striking NYC style lofts – right here in London!

Spratts Factory

an industrial loft, with crittal arched windows, exposed brick walls, a metal mezzanine staircase and wooden flooring. The layout is open plan with a living room, dining room and kitchen in shot. The flooring is wooden and plants are scattered around the space.

Starting strong, Spratts Factory is a truly impressive shoot location. As a large warehouse conversion in East London, it offers expansive high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling arch windows and industrial elements like exposed brick, metal beams and dark flooring.

Tribeca

a living room with one exposed brick wall, concrete beam and light wooden flooring. The space features a cream sofa, two accent chairs, a marble fireplace flanked by two wall-lights and dried flowers atop.

As a cosier New York loft option, Tribeca’s industrial interiors combine warm lighting, warm wooden tones and a creative vibe. Adding character and depth, the kitchen features a ladder, checkerboard flooring and eclectic decor. 

Quebec Wharf

a loft apartment with exposed brick walls, crittal windows and wooden flooring. The space features plants, a record player and record storage, an accent chair and two hanging pendant lights in white.

Dehav Loft very much embodies the features you would expect to see in New York lofts. With New York style industrial windows and wide, open-plan 1200 sq. ft. space, its small contemporary-style kitchen and large, bright yellow sofa add plenty of character.

Dog Factory

a contemporary loft space set across multiple levels dived by white walls. There is a tall narrow crittal window letting in natural light. The forefront of the image shows a dining table with three plastic eames chairs. On the table is a sculptural piece of wood and tulips in a glass vase.

Dog Factory blends industrial features with a more contemporary, polished style – moving away from a rustic-feel and more into luxury. With an interesting design, the loft features a three-walled mezzanine with cantilevered balconies.
