It is more about having open large spaces and abrasion look

The name, industrial home decor style may sound like having a house look like a factory but contrary to that it is the essence of it that makes for an industrial style. It is the concept of large open spaces, decorated with reclaimed objects, metal, concrete, wood, and junk texture that defines this rugged decor theme.

Moreover, it is effortless and easy maintenance owning to its key features of exposed brick walls, monochromatic typographic prints, factory windows, shaggy rugs, visible iron piping, and wooden floors.

Unpolished brick wall It is the first step towards building an industrial home décor. Don’t go smooth colourful textured walls in the house if you want industrial style. Instead, let the walls or a few of them unpolished or exposed brick walls. By doing so it adds a rustic feel to the interior and let the walls be in burnt red colour or just tone it down to a white distressed colour.

Use distressed material Don’t use plush fabric. Decorate your concrete walls and rugged tables with restored building objects, repurposed furniture, accessories from flea markets and even try and add parts of a bicycle or some old machines like a sewing machine or an old typewriter. Use furniture that you can give repurpose, like using furniture from antique shops made of wood, aluminum, iron, steel, tin, stone or copper.

The choice of colours Pick neutral colours palettes in the shade and tone of grey and can give it touches of black, white, and earthy tones. But if you are not big on keeping it black and grey, you can add moody layers with hints of darker tones or soften the colours into a cold scheme, like wooden colour or mid-to-light tones. On choosing the art that will hang on those walls, use vibrant art as it will give the required contrast to the dark or soft tones of wall colours.

Metal elements Sincetalking about setting an industrial home décor it is important to make use of more metal in the décor. Let show the basic functional pipes, vents, or old structural beams. In terms of adding the shelves use repurposed ones, make use of pipes for lighting, basins in old style and likes.

Minimal accessorizing But remember, to keep the house with minimalistic accessories. Keep the surfaces clutter-free, accessorize using large abstract wall art, metal structures, etc.

With the raw look adding comfortable couches, large windows with beautiful natural lighting with a house in copper and glass, the industrial-style interior can be easy.
