Abstract: The article discusses the psychological background connected with the formation of the loft. Loft (Eng. Loft – «attic») is an architectural style formed in the period of the 20th – 21st centuries in New York and is applicable to the interior decoration of the attic type residential and office premises. The loft style is characterized by unprocessed brick and concrete walls, metal or wooden furniture. The loft is a converted premise of an abandoned factory or other industrial buildings for living. The psychological conditions of the loft formation for people mean the creation of a feeling of stability and a feeling of reliability. The problem of industrial territories that find themselves in the city limits exists in many developed countries. The European solution, implemented in recent decades, is a radical transformation of industrial zones or their withdrawal from cities.

Keywords: loft, industrial cities, industrial territories.
