The heyday of style began in the first half of the twentieth century in New York, where free artists set up their homes and workshops in abandoned office and industrial buildings. There was no repair in these areas, so the rent was low. Later the premises were estimated by the American elite, as a result of which such housing became inaccessible to ordinary people.

From the English language "loft" is translated as "attic", but this does not mean that modern apartments must be located under the roof.The main thing - the appropriate interior design: the presence of communication systems and pipes, bare brick walls, wooden floors, simple furniture, a minimum of decor and defiant or luxurious things.
