This second-floor loft has a relaxed urban feel. “Downstairs we have the living room, which is a little bit more formal,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn. “But up here you’re kind of away from everybody. It’s a lot more expansive, and you have the vaulted ceiling above you.”

A navy wool area rug with smaller black-and-white cowhide rug on top defines the loft seating area with vintage lounge chairs, custom-painted vintage coffee table and a pair of leather poufs. “I love the idea of this loft being a little more industrial than the rest of the house,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

The two vintage lounge chairs with rust-colored textured boucle pillows fit the classic-meets-modern vibe of this home. “I think these are from the 1960s, if not early 1970s,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn. “We kept the original woodwork exactly as it was and recovered them in a classic plaid.”

A redesigned plug-in scented oil warmer on the wall uses natural essential oils to continuously distribute diffused fragrance throughout the loft.
