Customer Reviews

I used it for my business plan

I found this at the bookstore and some lofts shown in there really fit my visions for my business. People know about lofts but don't always get to see what's inside them. This book presents really well the different kinds of designs and architectures that are available. Even though it's 2008 now and the book is from 2001, it's a great display of techniques and a good starting point for further research.

well worth the money

the author, Felicia Eisenberg Molnar, mirrors the clean minimalist sense of design in some the photographed loft spaces in her text. ms. molnar's words explain the realized mission of architect, designer, and client devoid of the fuzziness and fussiness of many books on interior design. the reader is walked and talked through converted industrial spaces and shown how they have been transformed for the humans fortunate to inhabit them.

Tomorrow I start pricing lofts

The writing is inspired--succinct and descriptive--not a wasted or overblown word. The photos and illustrations are mouth-watering. This book says if you are the least bit adventurous, look into loft living. If you are truly creative and not afraid to admit it, you must live in a loft.

Finally Someone Gets It!

Well written, designed and researched! A must resource for any one dealing with use of space, interior design, color, lighting and of course LOFTS. Will keep this on my shelf as a reference for a long time. Also makes a great gift.
