Tips for an industrial looking interior

The industrial look is completely trendy. Countless living rooms are enhanced with the help of sturdy furniture that perfectly match this style. Yet it is sometimes difficult to find the right balance when creating an industrial interior. Which colours go well together and how do you combine the different furniture items from our range in a stylish way? There are a number of things that are essential in any industrial interior. Need a few instructions? Here you will find some essential tips for your industrial home.

The right materials

The materials make an industrial interior a success. Unprocessed, robust and tough materials in particular are doing well in this trend. Think of various types of metal, and also leather and untreated wood. Visible brickwork also  perfectly fits this style, for example as an accent wall. In addition, choose industrial furniture where these materials are combined: a leather chair with metal legs or a wooden table with an iron base. You thus keep your interior playful, while the style forms one whole.

Robust lighting

You can create a great atmosphere with lighting. That’s why it is so important to choose the right lamps for your industrial interior. Don't be afraid to make a statement with your lamps: large, striking and robust are all part of this style. For example, go for openwork hanging lamps, where the source of the light is clearly visible. Large floor lamps also suit this living style, such as an industrial spotlight. Would you rather keep it as simple as possible? Simply give your home more atmosphere by decorating it with different light bulbs.

Play with colours

Usually the colours of robust furniture are very dark and understated. Black, brown and grey are usually the main shades. This can make your home look a bit gloomy, but that is easily resolved. Create light accents with a light grey rug e.g. or by keeping some walls in your home white. A bit of colour is never wrong. Create playful colourful elements by decorating the room with accessories. Green, blue and red all do well in this interior style. Vintage accessories in particular give your interior even more flair, such as an old clock or a classic radio.
