This loft marked a dramatic departure from the clients’ previous home — a shift from classic grandeur to something more open, modern, and understated. With its generous volumes and clean lines, Abrams Valenti introduced a design approach that brings warmth and texture without interrupting the flow.

A long porcelain dining table grounds the main living area, paired with indoor-outdoor chairs built to handle everything from weeknight meals to craft projects. In the adjacent living space, a low-slung sofa on acrylic legs seems to hover, softened by tactile fabrics and anchored by an integrated, illuminated side table. A cluster of three multi-layered, irregularly shaped stone cocktail tables on metal bases creates a striking, sculptural composition. New lighting throughout—including a cluster of ethereal, fan-shaped pendants crafted from an innovative, rice-paper-inspired material and suspended at varying heights—adds a delicate lightness that beautifully complements the loft’s multistory scale.
