Welcome to ArtLofts
ArtLofts is a purpose-built work/live development created by artists for artists.

Functional (metal, textiles, paper, wood, ceramics, glass, and/or plastic objects),

Combine multiple rents into a dual-purpose art studio and
living space with collaborative work decks joined by open air breezeways and
anchored by a commercial exhibition/sales gallery and multi-media digital
lounge. Ideal for individual established or burgeoning artists on their
own, with roommates or families. These 28 single and two-story industrial
studios offer flexible space for working and living with concrete floors and
open beam ceilings swathed in a lustrous white finish enhanced with high-end
materials in the kitchen and bath. Designed to be in tune with the canyon
setting the signature saw tooth south pitched roofs support the solar array and
create dynamic vaulted ceilings to foster creativity and comfort with natural ambient
lighting from the large clerestory windows.

in a fingerprint less matte black exterior with soft close hinges and drawer

California coastline and canyons. Just 5.7 miles to the 405 and less than
12 miles from John Wayne Airport. Come experience one destination that
perfectly blends the best of art, entertainment, and nature at a one-of-a-kind
new build development.
BEAUTIFULLY FINISHED
A LIFESTYLE BEYOND COMPARE
EMBRACE YOUR BEST LIFE
Reducing multiple rents by combining not only Work and Live for an artist and student but also providing on site exhibition space reduces expenses and nurtures a small collective of artists and students that may otherwise be priced out of the costly and supply constrained Laguna Beach market creating a unique cultural experience unmatched anywhere.
ArtLofts will be the newest stop on the LCAD shuttle route connecting the property to the South Campus, Main Campus, Big Bend, and Club Laguna. This is a free service only offered to students and you are strongly encouraged to use it when traveling between these destinations. The shuttle stops approximately every 45 minutes and runs from 8am to 10:30pm Monday - Friday.
