Industrial Design FAQ
What is Industrial interior design?
Industrial interior design is inspired by converted lofts and warehouses. It celebrates raw, unfinished materials like brick, concrete, metal and reclaimed wood, often with open layouts and exposed structure.
How do I make my living room Industrial?
Start with a worn leather sofa and a coffee table in metal and reclaimed wood. Add cage or exposed-bulb lighting, open metal shelving and a palette of gray, black and rust. If you have brick or concrete, leave it visible.
Is Industrial the same as Urban Modern?
No. Industrial is raw and utilitarian, with exposed brick, pipes and concrete. Urban modern uses a few industrial accents but adds smoother finishes and a more polished look.
