CANADIAN HOME TRENDS CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE
LOFT'S DESIGN AND THE LAYOUT?
MARLA NAZZICONE This two storey loft felt dark and divided prior
to the renovation. The main floor consists of a large living space, dining
space and kitchen. We decided to remove the wall separating the
kitchen from the rest of the living space, opening it up and creating a
small waterfall edge island in its place.
CHT CAN YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT INSPIRED THE OVERALL
DESIGN?
MN The overall design was inspired by the homeowner’s taste. I
typically ask homeowners what inspires them in art and fashion before
asking for inspirational images of what they like in interiors. This gives
me an immediate understanding of their personal style. The space had
to feel elegant, yet bold with a touch of masculinity.
CHT WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE DESIGN ELEMENT IN THIS
LOFT?
MN My favorite design element is the porcelain feature wall. It is
definitely the focal point of the main floor and the built-in shelves
around the stone highlight books and accessories that bring life and a
bit of the homeowner’s personality into the space. Another one of my
favorite parts of this renovation was the light oak herringbone floor.
