fantastic!! that light is amazing.

my jaw dropped when i saw the photo at the top of the post and i think i might have passed out partway through the slide show. wow. i'm... yeah. amazing.

I agree with hessibell, the same thing happened to me.

Whoa. Incredible.

Other than the enormous square footage, this is my dream.

I like the natural light and expansive floor plan. P&H, thanks for sharing.

How unbelievable rude that you would post such an amazing find on a day when I simply cannot be filled with house lust. Meanie!

Great space and taste. Not to in any way detract from the amazing work they've done, but when you have exposed brick and great hardwoods, you're ahead of the pack already. The home I recently purchased here in Indy has both and the simplest of accents seem so much more special surrounded by wood and brick.

I love that courtyard.

Created an account just so I could comment on this. Amazing. A dream. Great work.

So cute! I love this loft.

The living space and study work for me! I think they're great.

I don't like the cluttered kitchen area and the blah bedroom though.

But I love the exposed brick, hardwood floor and architectural details. 8.5 out of 10 for me!

Gorgeous. Love your choice of minimalist furniture; it gives sophisication to your industrial space, not attitude for its own sake.

Love love love the original beams.

And... that old school tv. Congrats on not buying a newer one 'just cause.'

For once, I love everything. Can't fault it. Beautifully simple and very unique. You're lucky to have such an amazing home, and you've done a great job with it.

My only complaint is that I'd love to see a floor plan!

one of only many things i love about this place - where did you get that throw blanket on the sofa - the one w/ the text in black & white?? i want it.

I absolutely love this space! Great work!!!

I second the question about the text throw: it looks like bus blinds gone textile, gorgeous. And where-oh-where is the rotating stove, or am I simply not looking properly?
A perfect space. I am particularly taken with the photograph above the bathtub!

Leaping lizards, color me jealous! The thing that turns me off from most modern loft conversions are that they end up making me feel cold and lackluster. Not so in this space (to the nth degree)! Very warm, love the furniture and placement and, well, everything.

The only thing I don't like (petty, I know) is the cowhide rug. Seriously, when will that phase be over?

Those brick walls are just splendid hey, beautiful space!

Wow...I'm absolutely speechless. It's simply stunning! And your dog! Gorgeous!

I can almost feel the sun on my back as I look at that kitchen and dining area....

I should love this, and there are lots of individual things I like. But overall, it seems as though so much of the space is wasted. Is this often the case with lofts? For instance, the bathroom with the two sinks and no counters--why? If I had over 5,000 square feet for two people I would have the mother of all bathrooms, with tons of counter space and storage. Conversely, the kitchen seems cluttered rather than similarly spare and the bedrooms seem not to make the best use of their space. But the light is beautiful, and the courtyard is really lovely too.

Wow. That is gorgeous. Unfortunately, I do not have exposed brick walls, wooden beams or lotsa square footage but wow I am envious of yours. Love the kitchen, love the walk in closet. Love the old mechanical hardware that you left in. Love it, love it, love it!!!

Stunning. The kitchen alone is a jaw dropper. The courtyard is spectacular as well. Gorgeous.

I'd like to go to a party here, but I couldn't live here. Vast spaces, no coziness, lack of basic functional features.

I love the openess and clean lines. Sure doen't feel like something in the midwest!

Super jealous! Amazing amazing loft, and in soulard!

Tallulah is awesome.

I especially love the front and the patio. What a great place for entertaining. I think the other area of envy I have is the open closet space with a center island for storage, yes.

Love this place! Are the black and white photos your own? If not, where are they from? I love them!

I gasped out loud. In love!!!

Love this! I live in this area. You would be surprised what we St. Louisians have done with the old buildings in the Soulard area, where this gorgeous loft is located.

I love the brick, love the deck and covet that bathtub most mercilessly.
I would have preferred more counter space around the sinks in the bathroom and less clutter in the kitchen, but hell, they did a choice job.

This is gorgeous. It's not really my style, but I would love to be in this home. It's cheerful and has tons of light.

Wow, how stunning! Beautiful!

the only thing i don't like is the knotty pine... but i'd get over it

Exactly what sunan said!

Superb! I admire your choices, especially with your limits - 75 dollars per square foot.

I have never seen that gorgeous lamp put to more perfect use.

Would like to know where that cities throw/blanket comes from.

Great pictures and lovely space indeed.

this house is making me write my first comment at AT, though i've been following the site on a daily basis for over a year now.

this is the one tour, from probably hundreds i've strolled so far, that i never wanted it to end.

photographs convey a serene and happy house.
poetic. thank you.

with all that square footage you're going to need more people to move in! :) or have some babies!....Beautiful home - love all the sunlight seeping in. I grew up in a 5500 sq. foot log cabin home so I love all that wood. However, not the biggest fan of the ductwork. Overall, an amazing tour!

Another speechless customer over here. I bet you throw some amazing get-togethers/parties in this space.

I imagine if it were mine (as we all like to do) I'd go bolder on the furniture, as I am a color freak. Take advantage of the mammoth amount of space available.

The kitchen and dining area are so warm and inviting. I love the white gallery-style walls. And to have enough space to pull your bed out from the wall - luxury!

Your pup must go nutz running back and forth from one end of the loft to the other. Lucky girl!

Oh, and that courtyard! I would turn it into a jungle. Sigh... thanks for the daydream material.

Well, damn. Daydreaming here as well. Fantastic space.

Overall, I really like the home's volumes, light, and the furniture combinations. It doesn't feel too big to me, but I don't know that I'd call it cozy either. (BTW, should lofts really BE cozy?) It feels comfortably lived in!

I was curious though why there needed to be a bed in the major space - behind the TV wall - is this the guest "room?" And while I think that the furniture is really beautiful in the master bedroom it seems so drastically different from the rest of the house. Mixing a few more modern, but sympathetic, pieces into the room would make it feel more a part of the rest of the house. Maybe two colorful pieces for some extra pops of color?
I also would love to see pictures of the office spaces since they were part of the project too.

But like I said already, wonderful home. Bravo!

W.O.W.
Dream home.

Where are the white couches from? they look a lot like the hutton sofa from room and board but much nicer.

I am thoroughly confused as to why this is so popular. It's big open white spaces with modern furniture thrown around in what looks to me like a rather cold and jumbled way. The brick, wood, and space are nice, but the rest of it is just ... eh.

Thank you for letting us enjoy your house. Would you be able to tell what kitchen rails and paper towel (plus wrap and aluminum) holder you have in your kitchen? Do you find them functional enough to recommend? Thanks!

I have to agree with elvedon... I would expect a very thoughtful design from an award winning architect. Seems jumbled and awkward. The shell of the building is very nice. I would like to see a floor plan as well.

Torture.

i love it too. give me an old workable warehouse anyday. It just seems so liveable. Love love lurrrrrrrrrrrrve.

That is some mighty sexy exposed brick.

i see the wood, but where's the fireplace?

So want to live here. Everything is so beautiful and comfortable looking. The only think though the bedroom feels kind of cold with no rug and such small furniture.

Great job!!

The exposed brick it do die for!
Kudos for doing all the work and sticking to your plan!
Way to represent The Lou!
From one St. Louis native to another - THIS IS RAD!

Where did you get the sliding door?

That courtyard idea, keeping the brick walls, is so simple and yet so brilliant. I'm extraordinarily impressed.

There's not a hair out of place in this home. Which is one reason I could never live in something like it-- but it's perfect. You could create a catalog from it, and I mean that as a compliment. :-)

Thank you for showcasing St. Louis City. I live in St. Louis and we've been getting a bad wrap lately:( The loft looks effortless with its juxtapose of different design elements. I love it!

The courtyard idea is the neatest. Could you please tell me who makes those black windows? They really make the space.

holy sh*t! Perfection.

Lovely loft; I love the size of the place and all the light. However, it seems that the home seems very masculine, with too few feminine influences in it. Does anyone else think so?

Absolutely spectacular, I feel at home, would love a loft like yours. Great job.

decogirlmontreal

Excellent loft. Love the exposed woodwork!

I think it's gorgeous. I think the kitchen may be a little cluttered because people actually cook in there. I would come for dinner anytime.

I don't see any clutter in this kitchen. All I see are the basic things that normal people who cook on a regular basis would have. The kitchen looks pretty organized and clean.

Oh my gosh. This is my dream.

Could anyone tell me what store that set with the razor and shaving cream brush are from? It's near the end of the tour in the master bathroom.

My boyfriend has been looking for one for a while, and that one looks perfect to me! :)

@hellokimmy

Shouldn't be that hard to find. I know a store in Belgium that sells them

http://www.koordenwinkel.eu/shaving/shaving-sets-c-4.html

but I think you must be able to find them in any decent shop.

Awesome home.

What vendor did the sliding glass and metal door come from?

I'm so glad you posted this for many reasons but the main one is that we have a similar furniture arrangement in our living room, and have wanted to add a floor lamp similar to the Acro Floor Lamp but have been wondering... HOW do you hide the cord? Unfortunately we can't see in this photo...

Tallulah needs a cute dog bowl stand. :-)

I'm envious. I would love to live in a place like that!

Love your space. Love your sense of design. The bedroom with the brick walls is to die for. I would only change the white walls on your stairwell. I think it competes with your white sofas and is kind of distracting in the photo - maybe not in real life. Thanks for the inspiration.

Wow - you've got a great place there. The walls - the floor - the natural light! I love to see a vacant building re-purposed. Thanks for sharing!

It's nice to see when talent/know-how and resources come together to produce something like this loft. Too often you find people w/ talent and no resources or resources and no talent. I found myself asking the photo of Tallulah - out loud - if she realizes what a great place she lives in. She didn't answer me. I don't think she talks to voyeuristic freaks who are addicted to AT and covet other people's beautiful homes.

I was just home this weekend visiting some of my old stomping grounds and Soulard was one of them. It has been a number of years since I've been there so I was very happy to see that the area is still being renovated and people such as yourself is purserving a beautiful old neighborhood. Beautiful job. It makes my heart thump.

Love this to pieces. So beautiful! This is the kind of modern that I love... it's just done so well and still feels organic, comfortable, livable. (As opposed to the kind of modern that is centered around white plastic furniture and bright colors...) This is fantastic.

Hi all--it's Hali and Phil writing. Thanks for all of your comments, they've been so fun to read!

A couple of answers:
the sliding door was custom made, the black/white throw came from modernseed.com a few years ago, the knotty pine flooring is a replacement for the original clear pine flooring that was heavily damaged by fire and water, the furniture in the guest room was all made by Hali's grandpa and the bed pre-dates standard mattress sizes and is a little short for adult use--thus a guest room, the windows are from a company out of Kansas called Win-Vent, the wood burning stove somehow wasn't pictured--you can kind of see it in one of the photos to the right of the room divider that separates the living room from our sleeping area...

Yes, Tallulah LOVES running from one end of the place to the other!!!

FYI...Having an architect as a husband who is a true minimalist has definitely put the kibosh on frill and feminine, if you know what i mean!! :) It's a great place to entertain, yet a very comfortable place to live. Thanks again.

Simply Beautiful. Nice Job!

Gorgeous.

beautiful but a bit boring. albeit it's one of the best posts i've seen on this site (which is perhaps why i'm trying it so hard) but it lacks that final push for me... it's nice when a home gives some sense of the owners' personality-- while there's a lot of thought to its design, there appears to be a struggle between minimalist architecture and personal style. it seems very serious through its order and furniture selections. Everything is SO tasteful i want to see some hint of a flaw-- i'm dying to see one conversation piece or something kitschy stashed in the corner.

I do like it quite a bit and there is little to nothing to find erroneous, but I am a contrarian. the restoration and design are well done.

What an amazing home! This is definitely inspirational for me as I am going to be starting to convert rundown industrial lofts into living space.

Can you give info on the book shelves? Wonderfu space by the way!

AWESOME in every way.

Yes, I would like some info on the bookshelves as well. Are they bent angle iron or sheet metal? I'm looking to do something similar in my place, and I love how minimal and low-profile they are.

Beautiful space!

Can I live there too? I love all the architectural and design elements of this open space! I would love to call this home!

ok please spill the beans... how do you keep those glossy floors so clean?... and with a dog and all!

My dream is to live in an old farmhouse in the country but in my secret life, this, this is the place I would only allow myself to live in in the city. The wall. The floors. Perfection!

I love the kitchen...the whole place, really. I'm so glad to see all that rough brick looking so cool. I have a lot of it in my home and have been thinking it should be painted or whitewashed or plastered. Maybe I'll leave it alone.

I can't help wondering who cleans all that space, though. And what your main heat source is. And how private it is with the high ceilings and glass door. Can't help it, I'm a practical person.

This is fantastic. Love it!

Heaven.
