IS Lofts Slideshow

I stopped over to the IS Lofts this past Friday to meet owner Rocco Termini who was busy putting the final touches on his first completed loft rental. Workers were still assembling the fireplace and bringing in the furniture when I arrived, so I took the time to walk around the loft unit which will eventually rent for $650 a month.

There are some pretty cool features that have been incorporated into the design. The most incredible is the epoxy white floor that reflects images throughout the flat. There are industrial surfaces that combine with sleek finished features that both serve the design of this contemporary urban dwelling incredibly well. The view of the Electric Tower isn't too shabby either. Every loft will have a walk-up entrance that doubles as a patio... similar to the common frontage at the Elk Lofts. Off-street-parking is also a perk. The unit's first official showing was this past Saturday... check out the slideshow. If you like this project, check out another one of Rocco's right down the street.
