LONDON LOFTY!

September 27, 2010
  • Share

Dining room in a London loft with high ceilings, elevated windows, a glass second story log, wood floor, a floating bench under a bookshelf and a wood table surrounded by white chairs

Keeping it simple is the decor theme in this London loft apartment. All white pretty much with touches of color here and there…letting the architecture do the talking…high ceilings, elevated windows, a glass second story loft wall and even a spiral staircase.

No frills but it works. A lofty idea…keeping things simple. Hmmmm…

Kitchen in a London loft with white cabinets, floating shelves, silver counter top, a white island with glass top, white stairs to the second floor and a wall of plants

Home office in a London loft with glass floating shelves and a desk and a clear Philippe Starck chair

Bedroom in a London loft with a picture window, white bed with arched headboard and black and white pillows

My favorite picture is the small home office made from glass open shelving and a clear Philippe Starck chair…almost invisible. Good idea.

Happy happy Monday! Remember…keep things simple!

P.S. Thank you readers and COCOCOZY FACEBOOK PAGE followers for weighing in on this past weekend’s UGLY OR PRETTY? I enjoyed reading your comments…insightful and very amusing! If you haven’t already, check out what the Facebook fans had to say!

P.P.S. Got a cool new Blackberry which makes it easier for me to tweet…so now, on top of everything else, I have decided to start tweeting more too by the way…check out my most recent tweets regarding my choice of clothing to wear to work and a very weird and bizarre “design” find!!!!

    I am really tempted to paint my living room stark white. Like an art gallery, but I’m a bit frightened too!

    I am usually not a huge fan of modern spaces but this loft is very livable and less stark than others. The Starck chair is perfect.

    The simplicity of the design and the abundance of white really makes the colors that are present really pop. I think it makes it look kind of fun. I would probably run into that clear chair 5 times a day though.

    I love love love this post (and all things grey)! I’ve been reading your blog for a while – but this is my first comment. Where are those grey poufs from in the first shot?

    Thanks! Jayme.

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
