In 2024, LOFT won “Best Supplier" in the Build To Rent (BTR) sector at the Love to Rent Awards, and Founder Benjamin Hall was recognised as the BTR “Industry Shaper” by the Association of Rental Living, but why?
Our promise is simple yet profound: transforming spaces, protecting the planet and empowering lives.
Benjamin commented after his ARL award; “LOFT stands at the intersection of design, technology, and human experience, we are not just observing the future, we’re actively crafting it - our company is leading the evolution of living sector interior design and furnishings.”
The LOFT Eco-system
LOFT represents a paradigm shift - we're not merely a furnishing company; we're a residential design ecosystem, offering:
- Comprehensive, niche-sector products, services and coverage.
- Scalable, adaptive, furnishing solutions, designed for blended living.
- Technology-enabled imagery, a bespoke digital ordering platform & FF&E asset tagging.
- Unwavering commitment to sustainability through LOFT Renewal.
- Innovative social value initiative designed to End Furniture Poverty.
Industry Shaping Solutions.
The contemporary residential landscape represents multiple diverse living models - from transient urban professionals to multigenerational families, from international students to digital nomads.
Each segment carries unique aspirations, challenges, and psychological differences. The traditional one-size-fits-all approach to furnishing and interior design has become obsolete, creating a critical market gap that demands an industry shaping solution.
A Paradigm Shift: People First Design.
Over the last 21 years, LOFT has developed an integrated ecosystem that doesn't just observe these living models - we decode them.
Our "People First Design" philosophy is a mantra that goes beyond aesthetic considerations, delving deeply into the psychological, technological, and sustainability dimensions of contemporary living.
Technology: Our Invisible Architect.
Our digital backbone isn't just supportive - it’s predictive. LOFT is developing AI-powered space optimisation tools, virtual design consultations, and real-time sustainability tracking, representing our commitment to technological innovation.
We do not just design spaces for residents; we are engineering experiences in partnership with developers and operators.
Sustainability: A Moral Imperative.
Circular economy is not a buzzword for us - it’s in our operational DNA since 1976, when Co-Founder Robert Hall first started his quality used furniture and antiques business, we have been recycling and up cycling pre-loved furnishings.
Our FF&E procurement strategy, carbon footprint tracking, and waste reduction strategies demonstrate that design excellence and environmental responsibility are intrinsically linked.
As we approach 2025, LOFT stands at the intersection of design, technology, and human experience, we are not just observing the future, we’re actively crafting it - our company is leading the evolution of living sector interior design and furnishings.
