There is an increasing interest in the industrial look for interiors of the home especially in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. It takes the look of a turn of the century factories and lofts and brings it into home décor. With the lack of affordable housing in large cities, people moved into old factories and lofts to make a living space.
The walls often have red brick, metals, and dark paint. The furniture often has a pipe or metal look with a solid upholstery usually in leather. It is never complete without the old looking light fixtures with the Edison bulbs. Encourage is the use of recycled materials.
This is minimum design without cluttering the surfaces with anything. Space should mostly be bare and open. Accessories include large wall art and metal structures recycled from a junkyard.
Exposed pipes and ductwork should not be covered. Vintage photos placed in old metal frames can be placed on the walls or tables. The industrial style is simple but relaxed.
