Why is it so seductive? The unfinished walls, the non-fussy accessories and the nonchalance that is implicit in the industrial look…
Whatever the attraction, the key to getting industrial in your home is to not hold back. Industrial is raw, rough and exposed and you can’t get edgy while you tip-toe around the frilly pillows. So go on, industri-ALL… I dare you.
The tips:
Add warmth to the room with throws and rugs but keep them in neutral tones and simple designs
Metallic contrasts well with exposed wood and adds a modern element
Quirky art is perfect in industrial rooms because the bare, otherwise bare walls act like a gallery to show the pieces off
Introduce large, statement light fixtures in these rooms because the open plan and sleek edges compliment more fussy hanging pieces well
Brown suede or leather carries through the natural, minimalist look whilst adding softness and texture.
