The industrial living style, tough and robust

Industrial living is tough

The industrial style is a style that does not fuss. Neutral with striking accents is key. This applies to the entire interior, but also to all individual pieces of furniture. No frills, but big eye-catchers such as a large lamp, an iron staircase or an old metal cupboard.

The basis of the industrial style starts with a neutral basis. Think cooler colors such as black, white and gray tones, army green and brown. Colors of materials such as concrete, lime, clay, and stone fit perfectly in an industrial interior. These cool shades also make your interior appear larger. In addition to basic color, the choice of materials is also essential to implement the industrial style.

It is actually very simple; everything that is "natural" and "tough" fits into an industrial interior. Think of metal, steel, leather, concrete, bricks, and wood. Playing with these different colors and materials produces the most exciting interiors. A steel dining table against a rough stone wall, a wooden kitchen with a concrete worktop or a concrete floor with a large, coarse leather armchair. Less is more.

Combine raw materials into one

What you also have to dare is not to finish everything perfectly. Alternate smooth finished surfaces with a rough brick wall, iron pillars or wooden beams. If you don't have a rough brick wall in your house nowadays, there are also many beautiful wallpaper rolls with rough walls or brick walls. Also, the electricity cables, water pipes, and pipes do not have to be tucked away as deeply as possible in the wall. With the industrial style, it is the intention that these can be seen open and exposed. It all doesn't have to look finished, the rougher the better. The cables and pipes provide some texture in the open space.

The basis for an industrial interior is therefore neutral. The eye-catchers in your interior are created with large elements. Think of a special staircase but your furniture can also serve as an eye-catcher. Continue the natural use of materials to complete the industrial style. A large beautiful leather sofa, a large wooden dining table with steel base or a large steel cupboard. Key = real and large furniture. The furniture must not all be tightly lacquered or shiny new. Weathered, old and a dent here and there bring the furniture to life and thus also give your interior that tough look. Make it one whole.

LED Lights in the industrial living style

Do not opt for everything in one color or material. Vary and see what fits well together and what also fits in with your type of industrial style. Browse flea markets or antique stores. You will probably find the eye-catchers there that can give your interior the finishing touch! Are you afraid that a cool base and large furniture provide a chilly interior, then there is always the LED lights that bring atmosphere to your home? There are many different types of industrial LED lights. Consider large, robust lamps such as factory LED lights. These LED lights immediately give your interior a tough and rugged eye-catcher, but also bring a lot of atmosphere to your home. Attach these coarse metal LED lights to your ceiling with a chain or steel cable to complete the look. If you already have many large and coarse elements in your interior, opt for a lighter model such as a wire lamp.

These days you have a lot of tough filament LED lights that take these LED lights to the next level. Filament LED lights look just like the old pear and are completely hot in 2017. Just like LED lights with a concrete look. These also fit perfectly in an industrial style and you also see a lot like a table LED lights or floor LED lights. All in all, real mood makers.

Finally, choose the home accessories. With accessories, you can give your interior more color, balance or a warmer feeling, if you find it just too cold. You can also easily change your accessories so that you can quickly change the appearance. In the winter you often just want a warmer look. Then opt for warmer colors such as beige, red, brown, dark blue, etc. In the summer you often want a more fresh look, then choose pastel shades such as light green, light blue or light pink.

With these tips, your industrial home can no longer go wrong! Remember; less = more and daring is the keyword. Nothing is wrong as long as it is your own house and style. That is the most important!
