Industrial style

The industrial interior style is inspired by the rugged look of urban factories and warehouses. A hallmark of this style is the frequent use of raw, unpolished materials such as metal, wood, and glass. When we talk about industrial interiors, we don’t mean cold and uninviting factory spaces, but rather a stylish and timeless aesthetic. Discover how to give your home an industrial look.

What characterises the industrial style?

Would you like to create an industrial interior? Then make use of exposed pipes, concrete walls, and raw, unpolished materials.

Industrial, exposed details: Think of ceiling pipes, concrete walls, weathered wood, and metal beams – nothing is hidden, and everything is meant to be seen.
Raw and unpolished: No frills. This style is all about simplicity, with bare walls and furniture that is primarily practical.
Mix of materials: Metal, wood, and glass are often combined. This creates a bold yet stylish look.
Soft versus rugged: To avoid a cold atmosphere, add some softness: a rug, cushions, or a fabric room divider can make the space feel cosy.

Which colours suit the industrial style?

The industrial interior style mainly uses a neutral colour palette, such as black, white, and grey. These can be combined with muted tones like dark green, brown, or terracotta.
