Industrial style decoration

April 8, 2020

The industrial style in the decoration is one that is characterized by combining classic, modern and rustic elements. A style that does not go out of style and that allows to combine different materials such as metal and wood. This urban decoration can be carried out both in open and wide spaces and in small rooms. It has a casual elegance. The tones that prevail in this style are sober and uniform, such as brown, gray or black. In this Qechic tip we want to help you create very creative and original industrial-style spaces.

Create environments and locate furniture

In the industrial style we must take into account the order and balance. Furniture should be located so that ample walking space is created. This aspect will also allow the natural light that enters through the windows to be used to the maximum. You should consider what materials to choose depending on the amount of light you will receive. We will choose materials in their natural state, such as wood or concrete for areas with more light or decorative elements, such as iron or leather for darker areas.

Sober and rustic colors

The colors that predominate in the industrial style are usually natural tones of the raw wood, without varnishing, painting or pickling and gray, yellow or dark green tones. The walls and ceilings of the areas with this style take advantage of rustic finishes, such as concrete walls, brick or large beams. These elements are protagonists and are easily integrated. In addition, they have very simple maintenance. When you have one of these elements, so characteristic of this style, you can start introducing decorative objects that accentuate the industrial touch. You can opt for leather sofas, tables and chairs that combine wood and metal, or iron lamps with large bulbs. It is at this point that brown and metallic tones will predominate and when we should consider betting on some element in yellow, red or green to provide a touch of different color.

Industrial style, practical style

By using furniture with raw or unfinished materials, we achieve a decoration that does not require special treatments and care. Furniture with polished cement, original woods where you can see the beta or natural finishes and forging, iron or metal do not require maintenance. In certain furniture such as tables or chairs we can find the combination of materials such as plastic resins, with iron structures. In this case, the material will not matter if it has a timeless design and has neutral tones such as ocher, earth or metallic.

Timeless style with contemporary design elements

This style allows us to choose chairs with leather and design from the 60s and combine it with a glass table with a more modern style. This is the basis of this type of decoration, being able to merge elements that provide a bohemian character with a lot of personality. The rugs we should choose should be rugs made with harder or rougher materials in neutral and dark tones. We can choose natural materials such as jute fiber for this complement.

From Qechic we encourage you to discover all the furniture and play to combine it to achieve this style so marked in the world of decoration.
