In the heart of Amsterdam’s canal district, on the second floor of a characteristic 1990s apartment building, you’ll find HD Loft: a unique 160 m² apartment, entirely laid out on a single level.

What immediately sets this residence apart is how un-Amsterdam-like it feels. Rather than a traditional layout of small rooms and enclosed walls, it is a bold loft with a raw, metropolitan character and a distinct New York vibe. The robust, fully concrete structure forms the powerful foundation of the interior, giving the apartment a strong and honest identity.

No less than 60% of the façades consist of floor-to-ceiling glass, allowing the interior and exterior to merge seamlessly. The views are spectacular: on one side the canal, on the other a view of one of the Nine Streets in the heart of the city. The abundance of natural daylight enhances the sense of space and emphasizes the open structure of the home.

The layout truly lives up to its name. Long sightlines create an impressive spatial experience, while large sliding doors offer flexibility in how the spaces are used – from fully open and loft-like to more intimate when desired. The centrally positioned core forms the heart of the apartment and enables a circular routing: you can walk continuous loops throughout the space. This not only enhances the dynamism of the floor plan but also reinforces the feeling of freedom and flow.

At the same time, the aesthetic is understated and refined. The interior is defined by a minimalist approach, with a carefully curated palette of materials and subtle detailing. The atmosphere is warm and serene, clearly inspired by Belgian interiors: natural tones, pure materials, and a strong focus on balance and proportion.
