Industrial Decor, it's not Alternative...

Finding its origins in the 70’s in the wake of a great exodus of industry from the great leviathan buildings of victorian times. Industrial furniture feels like a cousin to the sparse, functional Scandinavian designs. They were adapted to fit these exposed brickwork apartments. A new style was born. Rising in the remnants of the previous industrial decor left by the working inhabitants of the past.

Into the late nineties and early 2000’s, with inner city loft conversions and redevelopment homes continuing to soar in popularity. With the ever growing need for city centre living spaces, trendy new districts were created from old brown sites. 

The Industrial Furniture style, has stopped being seen as a risky, or edgy theme. One that, in the past could polarise a space. In fact, it has shown itself to be a proven concept. One that is most definitely here to stay.

No longer a Fringe Concept

Although once taking inspiration from those industrial buildings which are now home. This aesthetic has begun to appear in the decor of homes from country houses to leafy suburbs. This doesn’t take anything away from this gorgeous, and different type of furniture.

Whilst this is no longer seen as alternative or “out there.” This is because it has in fact, become accepted as a mainstream style. A heavyweight one in its own right.

Now they're truly established as mainstream, there has been a huge increase in the range of products available in this style. With the result that there's a far greater availability of well priced products.

The metalwork on these beautiful wooden units also increases their durability. Consequently ensuring that you treasure these heirloom pieces.

The bridging style of industrial furniture allows them to fit in with most styles of decor. A perfect way to introduce different tones without redoing the whole theme of your home.
