According
to Anaïs Nin, “We don't see things as they are; we
see them as we are”. What do people see in Lofts that makes them
love them or hate them? When it comes to
lofts I have seen people only in either extreme.
Lofts mean wide-open spaces,
floor-to-ceiling windows with city views and doubly high ceilings.
In most cities, empty downtown
warehouses get converted into such urban chic residences with leftover accents
to the building's industrial roots: lots of concrete, exposed pipes and air
ducts, and unfinished floors.
In Miami, however, condo developers
seek to recreate such spaces with new apartments designed as lofts featuring open
plans and wall-to-wall windows.
There are the occasional
industrial-style lofts in buildings west of Biscayne Boulevard towards Wynwood.
But by a look at what's on the
market right now, those more authentic lofts are snapped up fast. * Some notes
taken from the Miami HoffPost Miami.
