Urban Loft-Styles
The Dream of 90’s Soho Is Still Alive in Cincinnati
Urban Loft-Styles, No Era's latest drop, is far greater than a collection of vintage home furnishings. It represents the collective talent of several creative professionals. The result is a highly stylized look book that is as poised and gorgeous as it is savvy and, dare I say, contemporary—a term rarely associated with vintage. Evident in every photograph of this stunning catalog is the unique contribution of each participant whose efforts deserve your admiration and support.
Imagine the raw pulse of Detroit streetwear colliding against opulent designer furniture classics including B&B Italia, Saporti Italia & Herman Miller. This interplay of styles draws from the hypnotic sounds of Hip-Hop and Trip-hop, layered with the moody ambiance of 90’s era Chloë Sevigny films, alongside a subtle nod to Miami’s global art and design influence. All of these dynamic elements clash in perfect unison against the gritty backdrop of Cincinnati's warehouse district, anchoring this concept. In Mid-west cities like Cincinnati, the dream of an artist's loft-style is still very much alive. What's your loft-style?

Summer of Loft
Anchored by an oversized, plush sectional sofa, this collection evokes the leisurely elegance of an ‘80s yacht sailing down the Biscayne Bay. This look is accentuated by airy glass and lucite elements in a crisp, tangy palette of white, brown, amber, and tangerine. Unexpected yet flawless, this Postmodern nautical theme is perfectly situated within this industrial interior landscape. Bon Voyage!
Grit & Graf
Defined by loud colors, sharp graphics, and clean lines, this look embodies the cutting edge of urban industrial design in interior aesthetics. This collection features oversized graffiti canvases and pop art murals reminiscent of Wynwood's vibrant art district. These bold artworks are juxtaposed with minimalist, industrial furniture, such as Giovanni Offredi’s perforated purple leather dining chairs, Paolo Piva’s renowned Alanda Coffee Table, and the iconic Coconut Chair by George Nelson.
Fun Fact
Did you know that the Alanda Coffee Table was intentionally chosen for the set design in the film American Psycho? It embodied the height of modernist luxury and exclusivity at that time and served as a status symbol for Patrick Bateman. You can read more about this here.
