Industrial furniture: Furniture with industrial charm

Unplastered walls, exposed pipes, rough wood and minimalist furniture: A facility with industrial furniture and an industrial style is characterized by industrial elements such as concrete, metal and rough wood. This living trend with a workshop flair is very popular and gives your own four walls an urban character with the industrial furniture.

It was created at the end of the 1970s. At that time, artists in New York began to use old, empty factory buildings as living and working spaces, unintentionally creating a new living trend. The furnishings left behind by the former companies served as furniture and serve as a model for today's industrial furniture. It was not foreseeable at the time that the charm of the old halls would one day become a living trend. The advantage of the large halls for artists was primarily the space they found. There they were able to work on their works of art and be artistic without hindrance.

Industrial furniture: functional, pragmatic and robust

Since the old factory halls on which the industrial style is based are large, spacious rooms without walls, the style is characterized by an open spatial structure. Unplastered brick walls and exposed pipes give the rooms an imperfect, rough and coarse industrial look. Matching colors are black, gray, brown, orange and red. Splashes of paint, chipping paint, patina and rust complete the industrial look.

Only a few pieces of furniture are used in the rooms. Industrial style furniture is straightforward, pragmatic, rugged, simple and functional. There is nothing here that is not needed. The furniture is minimalist and often impresses with a look that looks as if it had been poorly constructed and a special feel. They are also extremely robust, stable, resilient and long-lasting.

Commonly used materials are:

• metal
• Wood
• leather
• concrete
• Riveted steel elements
