Old Warehouse in Montreal Transformed into a Dazzling Contemporary Loft

We have seen plenty of old buildings, classic homes and neglected structures being turned into gorgeous modern homes in recent times. But most of these astonishing renovations combine the old with the new and offer a unique blend of contrasting styles. Yet this fascinating loft in Montreal by ActDesign as a former refrigeration warehouse in a hundred year old building is revamped into a dashing, contemporary home. The ingenious home does away with brick walls, plastered surfaces and other traditional elements that one might expect in such a transformation as a sleek, ultra-modern look ambiance takes over.

The key requirement that shaped the overall contours of the interior and its appeal was the extensive modern art collection of the homeowner, which he wished to display proudly around the house. A horseshoe plan was adopted for the open plan living area and the superb living space, contemporary kitchen and smart dining area come together seamlessly. Each space flows into the next even as warm wooden textures, bold splashes of red and comfy decor in black add visual and textural contrast to the space. A home office with glass walls makes sure that there is no obstruction visually even as it offers a peaceful work area.

The walls come alive thanks to the amazing modern art collection on display even as sliding doors lead towards the cozy bedroom. Glossy surfaces, brilliant lighting and a cheerful atmosphere turn this home into an exquisite, posh getaway!
