Title: Couple Transforms Historic SoHo Loft into Maximalist Oasis
In a city known for its sleek modern apartments, Brock Forsblom and Jeremy Heimans have created a unique living space that pays homage to the past while reflecting their vibrant personalities. The couple’s journey began when they stumbled upon a historic SoHo loft with all the charm of a bygone era – exposed brick walls, tin ceilings, and a spacious layout that once housed artists and creators.
After purchasing the loft in early 2020, Forsblom and Heimans embarked on a renovation project that would transform the space into a maximalist oasis. Drawing inspiration from their love of vibrant patterns and eclectic design, the couple enlisted the help of architect Henry Ng and collaborator Jacob Esocoff to bring their vision to life.
Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, Forsblom and Heimans took their time to carefully curate each aspect of their home. From a kitchen with a rock garden and a window overlooking a soaking tub, to a flexible dining room that doubles as a guest room, every corner of the loft tells a story of creativity and innovation.
The main bedroom, covered in emerald green wool salvaged from a fashion collection, offers a decadent escape from the open living spaces. Meanwhile, the living room, bathed in Barragán’s signature pink, serves as a vibrant gathering space for the couple’s friends and family.
As guests explore the loft, they’ll encounter a growing art collection, handmade ceramics, and mementos from the couple’s travels. Each piece tells a story and adds to the eclectic charm of the space, making it a true reflection of Forsblom and Heimans’ adventurous spirit.
With their SoHo loft, Forsblom and Heimans have created more than just a home – they’ve crafted a living masterpiece that celebrates the past, present, and future of design.
