In the mid-20th century, many large factories, workshops and warehouses in major cities worldwide were turned into loft or open-plan housing, and since then, the raw vibe of cement, beams, pipes and unfinished surfaces has taken off. Unvarnished with an edge, the look has its own character, yet the mostly neutral palette of greys, blacks, creams and bronzes work as an ideal base for adding your own personal touches.
When it comes to creating a loft- or industrial-style aesthetic, surfaces play a big role in evoking an authentic feel. Capture the look effortlessly with Cosentino Silestone’s new Loft collection. The series consists of five variants, each inspired by an iconic neighbourhood known for its distinctive industrial style.
