Interior Design Explained

Industrial Living Room

An industrial living room is a great combination of rustic and vintage elements in a loft apartment. It differs from other styles in its “warehouse” look, with strong robust vibes. Also, you can blend industrial style with others to achieve a unique look for your living room. Be creative with details to make your apartment stylish and show off your personality.

The Essentials Of Industrial Décor

A utilitarian design gives you a lot of options to live in a functional and comfortable home:

  • Open floor concept
  • Raw brick, cement, and wood panel molding
  • Exposed beams, pipes, and ductwork
  • High ceilings
  • Hardwood flooring
  • Natural materials
  • Outstanding accessories and decorative elements
  • Modern light solutions
  • Creative fireplace options

You can organize your own book nook with an open bookcase to emphasize your good taste. Think about plush sofas in gray tones with decorative throw pillows. You can read and relax there looking at the roaring fire.

Floor-To-Ceiling Windows

If you are lucky enough to have large windows, you’ll have plenty of natural light in your apartment. To achieve an old-timey factory feeling, just keep your windows bare. If you don’t have the best view, opt for gauze curtains to add romantic interest to your industrial space.

Keep Your Color Scheme Simple

Opt for neutral color hues when you decorate your living room in an industrial style. Adding color accents is always a great idea. For instance, consider a dark brown sofa and armchair set. You don’t need bright color choices to emphasize the beauty of simple lines and forms.

Industrial apartments are almost always spacious. To keep that airy, open feel, opt for a clutter-free concept for your home. With minimalist color choices, you’ll achieve an airy apartment with a strong robust spirit.

A coffee table on wheels is the perfect industrial element to add character to any home. Unfinished wood surfaces enhance the charm of a neutral color scheme.

Keep Your Color Scheme Simple

With A Contemporary Twist

An industrial apartment with contemporary lines and clean, geometric shapes without additional details looks really stylish. You can add drama with dark-colored furniture pieces and light fixtures. Opt for a wooden table, a cabinet, and metal stools in a common color palette to bring it all together.

Glossy Chic

Create symmetry with a pair of chairs to emphasize the modern side of your industrial décor. You can add a pop of pattern with a geometric-print rug. Choose a few details for accents in your space. With a good book and a place like this, life suddenly seems better, doesn’t it?

An Old-World Mood

To find balance between vintage old-fashioned chic and a robust industrial spirit, opt for a leather sofa, a glass vase with a bouquet of fresh flowers, modern coffee tables, sconces with forged elements, and vintage wall art.

Hang flower-themed wall décor on a raw brick wall to emphasize the gentle character of your industrial living room. With metal-framed pictures, you can create an elegant appearance in your apartment.

Think about glass candlesticks and other light fixtures to create a romantic ambience inside your lovely industrial living room.

An Old-World Mood

With A Scandinavian Touch

If you like unusual décor solutions, think about an oversized chandelier to emphasize the lofty character of your space. To display the futuristic appearance of your industrial home, select a hanging fireplace. To get “hygge” and feel Scandinavian vibes, opt for neutral-colored furniture pieces and color accents. Think about an open-shelving system for your books and CDs.

Harmony Is Everything

To make your industrial living room orderly and harmonious, place your sofa and armchairs opposite each other with symmetry in mind. When you place shelves and lamps in a symmetrical manner, you’ll make your space cohesive.

With a few potted plants and candlesticks, you can create a sentimental mood there. Opt for neutral colors to emphasize a calm ambience inside your living room.

Harmony Is Everything

What About Your Home Office?

Think about a small work zone inside your living room. Even if you have a large window, mix it with track lighting. To emphasize the industrial spirit, keep your brick or cement walls bare.

Select modern furniture pieces with straight lines and clean shapes. Opt for a big sectional sofa where all your family can rest. Think about simple metal stools to emphasize the pure simplicity of your space.

Style Your Space

If you like floor-to-ceiling shelves, creating your own library is a perfect choice for your home. To achieve the warehouse look, keep your columns, wires, and pipes bare. Opt for black-and-white color tones to make your space simple and harmonious.

Lifestyle Industrial Design

As far as important style details, consider hanging a single picture that fits well on your raw brick walls. Think about a large green plant in a monochromatic pot. Opt for an oversized floor lamp for additional light in your home.

With A Boho Twist

If you want to create an easygoing atmosphere inside your industrial living room, add a few Bohemian décor elements. Think about Moroccan rugs and bright modern furniture pieces. Combine a gray sofa, a white kitchen island, a table and a cabinet with an earthy-colored stool and an ottoman. If you opt for a round ottoman, you can use it as a coffee table. Instead of classic red brick walls, opt for a whitewashed variant to emphasize the light character of your abode.

Modern Furniture Pieces

To celebrate a nature-inspired lifestyle, choose a wooden table, coffee table, and stools. To create contrast between furniture pieces and accessories, select an old-world area rug to anchor furniture pieces in your industrial living room.

Think about wooden windows to emphasize the sustainable character of your apartment. Opt for a large potted plant to freshen up your living room.
