The Industrial Design Trend

5 years ago

Construction finishes, inspired by industrial architecture have become a strong trend in kitchen surfaces. The tactile, bold appearance of raw concrete, poured plaster and rust are very visually appealing and these looks are becoming increasingly popular in interior design.

The modern materials give different layers and depths containing various shades, reflecting the raw textures in the natural changes of stone and industrial materials over time.

These finishes work well as kitchen worktops, and can be achieved using quartz. The rough look is however, non porous, highly heat and scratch resistant, and easy to clean and maintain.

With 5 furry idiots a fringe on anything would count a half life of nanoseconds in our house. So, no, not something I would consider. Ever.

@Jaya Garella I wasn't 100% sure what you meant by 'the bras'? haha. none of the tiles on the mock up pic are anything I have specifically chosen - they are the least offensive on the app I had which is a house mock up program and not specifically for bathrooms. I would need a splashback with a sink unit though as that back sink/wc wall is just a wood frame at the moment so will need plasterboarding. Part of me wants to avoid the grey as although I love a rich grey, the rest of my house is off black by F&B so very dark and moody. In the tiles in a small room it might be a bit drab? I'm also struggling to find patterned tiles that I could put all over the bath wall and bath that wouldn't be too much ie too large a pattern or too small. I would then have to have maybe a wood effect (vinyl or tile) on the floor as I think pattern on the floor and bath panel and large wall might be too much? You don't see the bath wall when you walk in as the door opens to the left and hides it. Trying to find some industrial glam images of alternative options as I'm a bit stuck in a rut with it and my bathroom fitting team is a bit old school so not up on design! haha

I don't think the style is complicated TBH. If you wanted to simplify the colour you could do the island in the same,colour which tends to work better with relatively narrow rooms. In terms of balance are you referring to the warmth of the colour scheme on one side with brick and wood? If so, you could pick a warm encaustic tile splashback or you could do the banquette in the kitchen colour and just add some warmth for accessories? Or were you referring to proportions? If so I think the shelves add balances to your plan and you could go a bit bigger (or more) wall lights over the table?
