Curved white armchair
Round shapes, neutral colors and upholstery are basics when it comes to decorating in a minimalistic manner!
That’s why you’ll NEED a curved white armchair for your loft living area!
It’s advisable that you only get one of these as more could overcrowd your space too much. Place it next to your sofa and make it face the coffee table. Or you could also place it in a 45 degree angle. The choice is up to you.
Either way, you’ll be able to close down the space a little, which will make your loft seem less open.
Here’s a top-tier armchair from Amazon.
Simple white sofa
Whether curved or a traditional one with wooden legs, a simple white sofa will look so great in your loft apartment!
Any type of sofa corresponds to a minimal loft apartment design, as long as it’s neutral in color, simple in texture and materials and doesn’t have accents.
Here’s an excellent curved sofa option from Homary.
And a sectional one from Wayfair.
Neutral colored throw pillows
Of course, minimal doesn’t mean boring! You can decorate to your liking, but make sure you don’t go overboard with too many colors and textures! Keep the focus only on the most essential decor items that add to functionality and your own comfort as well!
That is why throw pillows are allowed. Get yourself a few lined linen throw pillows in neutral colors and VERY minimal pattern.

Tula coffee table from Croft House
This coffee table is an absolute staple for a minimal loft apartment! With its roundness, it not only contributes to toning down the harsh edges of your super rectangular loft apartment, but perfectly matches that minimal aesthetic.
Modern area rug in neutral colors
How would any space be complete without an area rug? Well, this is acutely true for a loft apartment decorated especially in a minimalistic style.
Since lofts are excessively open, you’ll need quite a loft of room dividers to create a sense of purpose for each area. And one of the most simple and affordable natural room dividers happen to be area rugs!
So if you get one in neutral colors and minimal pattern that can still make a statement, you’ll be able to reap the rewards of both an obvious border for your living area and a clean, consistent style.
This rug is our best recommendation. It has minimal ombre pattern and corresponds well to that authentic minimal style!
KCO light fixture with glass globes
This minimalist light fixture is the perfect match if you’d love to lend your loft apartment a bit of a sparkle but want to do it within the confines of that minimal loft apartment design!
It’s goint to be the new focal point of your loft apartment. It has just enough movement to not be boring, but also fit the criteria of a minimal loft interior.
The outcome will be unimaginably beautiful!
Romina standard table lamp set
Table lamps are not a requierement and also not very commonly used in interior design styles. Why? Because they are highly functional and aesthetics are more appreciated.
But not with this style! Minimalism loves functional items. They add to the space both in usability and can elevate the look with their simplicity.
So go grab yourself this table lamp set ASAP!
You can place these separately in different areas in your loft apartment, like the loft bedroom and the living area, but for maximal effect keep them together. It’s best if you get yourself two round sideboards as well and place them next to both end of your sofa with the lamps on top.
Minimal decorative flower vase
Decoration is definitely not forbidden, but you’ll need to do it in style! To avoid overcrowding the space with clutter, confine yourself to only the most necessary decor items.
And who would say that vases are not necessary? If you accessorize them with flowers and plants, it’s even better.
You definitely won’t need a set of vases for a minimal style, 2 or 3 will do. Also make sure that the vases of your choice are neutral in color, have super clean lines and are rounder in shape. The most simple ceramic vase is going to be more than enough for the purpose of decorating your loft apartment in a minimal style.
Put your vases on the coffee table, behind your sofa or in a few corners for that clean and natural look.
Textured minimalist canvas art
This tip is optional! If you feel like you already have a lot going on in your minimal loft apartment, ignore this. But if you’ve been decorating in a consistently simple manner, you can allow yourself a nice minimalist canvas art without making your minimal loft feel cluttered.
To create a cohesive design, if you’re thinking of accesorizing your walls with a painting, definitely consider textured canvas art!
Although a minimal design doesn’t really prefer textured art, this one is not going to hurt at all since the previous tips didn’t include any texture at all.
It’s best if you use the painting as a backdrop in your living area -of course, if you can. If you don’t have walls behind your sofa, try applying it onto an accent wall near your living area.
You can find quite a lot of excellent textured minimalist canvas art pieces on Etsy. Here’s our favourite!
Bubble candle
Candles can serve as highly functional items in making your loft apartment smell good. So if chosen right, they are the perfect fit a simple, yet evergreen design.
Bubble candles have exciting shapes, but this doesn’t ruin the big picture. Get yourself a plain white one from Etsy here that’ll elevate the big picture in the most subtle way possible.
Black or white rectangular concrete tray
Since your coffee table is already round, it would be a crime to place a round decorative tray on top of it! Do you actually need one, though? It’s up to you, but having something to organize your decor items is super helpful and can lend your loft apartment an even more sophisticated look.
Especially concrete trays! These simple items emit lots of elegance and will look so good on wooden surfaces!
Place your candles and a vase here, and you’re done!

The best way you can do it within a minimalistic design is to first get a tall stoneware vase in neutral colors and possibly without texture. Place this either next to your sofa or into the corner next to the TV stand.
