Creatives in the Arts District really like to be able to live and work in the same place. Not having to commute frees up your time for other things, say many in the community. Going home for lunch, running a load of laundry while you are in the office working. Being home when a vendor or delivery driver needs to get in during the day are all time-saving features of having a life and a job that occupy the same space.
Cutting expenses on commuting and needed a car is a huge plus on the side of working from home. Another savings to consider is more upfront. One should also extend to the amenities. If this is a business expense your choice of the building. You should wander to the less luxurious side of the street. To keep your expenses in check. Shy away from buildings with amenities like pools and on-site gyms that can save you hundreds of dollars a month on your HOA dues. Also, if you are setting up shop from home make sure you comply with permits for Los Angeles especially. Make sure you have all the appropriate licenses and keep good records. We suggest talking to a business set up professional to make sure you cover all your bases.
Downtown L.A. is a concentration of artists and free thinkers. The concentration offers residents a supportive community. In the suburbs, where everyone is isolated in their own house, the odd guy working from home with photography or music does not get much love from the community. However, makers have often commented they liked being around neighbors working on creative projects and pursuits not associated with the 9 -5 office culture.
Industrial Lofts have traditionally appealed to Makers, artists, and creatives who use a studio set up in the loft to make music or photography, even sculpture and light manufacturing. You’re getting a property that is zoned for business and often equipped for both living and working.
A more recent trend is Live/Work lite. Working from home has an expanding appeal for traditional office workers and desk jockeys. Making a living in an industrial loft is decidedly growing in the white-collar fields, A much easier separation between a home office and your home can be arranged in a loft space. It is obvious the art and the office are converging to make live-work living arrangements practical. #WFH #artsdistrictlofts
