Industrial style has reigned in interior trends for several seasons now. Young and open-minded people, as well as restaurateurs and hoteliers are particularly fond of this décor. We will tell you how to introduce this style to your interior with one element.
You’ll find a bookcase in almost every home. There are lots of different uses for it. If you are looking for something modern and original, go for one that represents an industrial atmosphere. It can be made only of metal or its combination with wood or even sometimes glass. Metal gives austerity and uniqueness, glass gives lightness, and if wood is used, it is only natural looking and often specially aged by patination, brushing, waxing or rubbing. Most often they are high and impressive structures, and above all it is a piece of furniture without a closed back, which gives the impression of extra space.
Industrial aesthetics harmonizes most with loft spaces. That is, raw and minimalist spaces, with vast areas, large windows and high ceilings. Concrete walls, red bricks and lack of division into rooms are common determinants. Natural light and cold colors dominate there. This type of premises were usually created after transforming abandoned factories, warehouses or production halls. It is in lofts, where the industrial book case will prove most useful
Fortunately, modern fashion allows you to combine many styles. Thanks to the principle of contrast you can play with the form. In the living room, where you have a big fluffy carpet, lots of cushions on the sofa, and bright and warm colors on the walls, you can easily put a modern bookcase. It will stand out and catch the attention of your guests
If, in time, you want to put more industrial elements, you may be tempted to make a matching wall with decorative or architectural concrete. Another idea is to buy accessories such as: steel or metal lamps, ornaments in geometric shapes, an old clock or go a step further and install bare bulbs on the ceiling suspended on a braided cable
