Unplggd: A Minimalist New York Loft

Name: The UNstudio Loft

Location: Greenwich Village, New York

Size: 550 m2

Designed for dual use as both an art gallery and a loft living space, the undulating walls and curvilinear features of the UNstudio loft caught our attention as a dream space for anyone who collects art, books and loves the minimalist aesthetic. Our tech side appreciates the use of 18,000 LED lights illuminating the ceiling and shelving, while our favorite room is the stunning office space with flowing worktop and a city view to die for.

As noted, the look isn’t for everyone, but for those of us aspiring for a more minimalist aesthetic, there’s a lot to admire about the space. Most notably the interior architecture itself “framing” all the decorative, art and printed elements into the forefront. Also, we’re envious of the LED lighting system, which can be programmed to change to various degrees of warmth or cool, depending upon the time of day and weather. We like the idea of integrated interior architecture light therapy! And of course, we always love any space where we can’t find a cord or cable in sight.
