More Industrial Inspiration: Guest Edition

After my previous post talking about industrial inspiration for my next room makeover project, I've been inspired to explore further on how this look can be achieved in any room of the house. Today, we are in for a treat as we have a guest post by Joanna from Design Shuffle to help us with more ideas on how to integrate industrial elements in our homes. Take it away, Joanna!

Hello, I’m Joanna, a blogger for Design Shuffle, a premier source for interior design information and designers portfolios. I am fortunate in that I spend my days finding the most beautiful images of interiors the web has to offer. I put them together and then share them with blog readers such as you.

Thanks to Weekend Escapades for letting me share with you today!

With the popularity of city loft living, industrial spaces have become more and more desirable. With expansive square footage, these “homes” can be intimidating when it comes time to decorate, but many designers have risen to the challenge beautifully as you’ll see in the spaces below. We’re sure you’ll come away with lots of interior design ideas.

If a dream loft isn’t in the cards for your near future, you can easily bring industrial elements into your home. Furnishings such as a wood and metal table on wheels or a distressed table with aluminum chairs will give your room an industrial feel.

  

Not quite sure of the origins of this space, but we love it. The worn leather seating and rustic cabinets and tables look perfect in the industrial style room.

  

Modern glass touches and furnishings make this warehouse space updated and fresh. Brick against a fresh coat of white paint really makes the wall and shape of the windows stand out.

   

Here is where that industrial style table we were talking about above comes in. Take a traditional and feminine room and give it a sassy edge with industrial accents.

   

An old factory sets the stage for a glamorous bedroom design with lots of personality. Can’t you just imagine jumping into that comfy bed for a mid-day nap?

   

Over 6,000 square space of industrial strength living space didn't keep the designer and owners from creating a warm and livable home.

   

Need dining room design ideas? Sleek modern furnishings and ornate chandelier play nicely with weathered brick and worn concrete floors.

   

This is another way to add industrial touches to a room in your home. Old post office cubbies, aluminum chairs and vintage commercial lighting go a long way in creating a chic decor. Does this space inspire interior design ideas of your own?

   

Another luxurious bedroom is brought to life in rather harsh surroundings. Concrete walls and heavy steel beams add to the character of the space.
