Lessandra & Sam's Montreal Loft — 100 Years Old, Zero Interior Walls

Lessandra and Sam's loft in Montreal's historic Old Port occupies a 100-year-old building with massive sun-drenched windows, exposed brick, and absolutely zero interior walls dividing the living areas. The rustic kitchen is a major focal point, featuring Portuguese-inspired azulejo tiles, a checkered backsplash, and terracotta counters. Throughout the open floor plan, the couple mixed decades and styles — a thrifted mid-century Marcel Breuer cantilever chair, a coffee table that's traveled to four countries, and rice paper lanterns paired with retro 1970s seating — for a distinctly Soho-loft feel, built entirely on Facebook Marketplace finds and family heirlooms.
