Not just lofts, L.A. lofts. How could they be the same as anywhere else? They have to be "as colorful and creative as the city itself.". And as the publisher blurb continues to say, L.A. is the world's dream factory, lofts there are a reflection of the owner's idiosyncratic personal style. 20 owners have their style showcased in this book; one with a 30-foot upholstered bar for a kitchen counter, another has a former bank safe for a bedroom, yet another is styled after a Shaker farmhouse. No minimalism here. In addition, each chapter features a unique project for the home, such as refurbishing vintage picture frames. Published by Chronicle, hardcover, 192 pages, 200 color photos, due in June, $31.50 at Amazon.
