The annual Downtown Lofts Tour returns October 2-3!
This year, guests will have the chance to explore a wide range of living spaces and decorative styles each unique to its owner. From a young couple's chic loft decorated in a monochromatic white palette, to a sprawling family compound that spans the upper floors of three adjacent buildings, variety is at the heart of the tour. Absorb the carefully balanced blend of styles, colors and accents in the vast loft of an interior designer, and then be wowed by another home that takes a black and white color scheme and with a splash of red. No matter your own style you are sure to find something you like in this year's great selection of loft homes.
