The industrial style is taking over kitchens with metal and robust finishes

Industrial style pays homage to workshops and the world of industry in a cool, yet homely environment. The conscious selection of particularly strong materials such as iron, steel, concrete and stone represents an urban interior design style. It’s therefore no surprise that the industrial style also makes you think about loft apartments. Use the style to harmoniously combine sensuality with sober functionality.

The trend is characterised by a colour scheme comprising black, grey and rust tones. In designing a cool industrial-style kitchen, the factory atmosphere of exposed brick walls is highly prominent: wall and flooring manufacturers provide a wide range of interpretations of real materials, with and without patina. Signs of use are very much permitted in the industrial style. Vintage pieces such as metal stools and workshop lamps therefore complete the desired look that pays homage to old places of work. This differentiates the industrial style from the concept of minimalist living spaces.

In trendy kitchens, this combination of rustic finishes and cool, contemporary technology creates a unique statement: raw chic meets modern design. Shelves with a black, metal frame, like those in warehouses, are not only functional but also represent a casual style. Concrete is another key part of the concept – whether on the floor or the unit fronts, the authentic look invites you to reach out and touch it. Rust effects, usually from the manufacturer’s colour range, can be optionally added to popular unit finishes.
