The industrial-loft style for small spaces

Lo stile loft-industriale per ambienti ristretti

Among the trends of the moment, the industrial style is always one of the most appreciated and chosen for furnishing city homes all over the world .

The industrial-loft style is inspired by the residences of New York artists between the 50s and 60s, starting from the recovery of former industrial spaces for residential purposes , but increasingly also artisan workshops or commercial spaces.

It's not often you find a house with open spaces, like a real loft, in our cities. It is possible to create your own loft even in smaller spaces while remaining consistent with the style listed above.

The peculiarity of these "renovations" is that they showcase the structural parts of the building , leaving brick walls, pillars, beams, etc. visible.

The dividing elements are reduced to a minimum to give an open space effect .

As for the choice of colours, white, grey, brown and black are the main shades. The walls are painted white, except in the kitchen area and in the study corner, where two niches, created by closing existing openings with the rest of the building, were painted with matt black enamel.

A cold material such as metal (that of the glass wall frames) must be balanced with wooden elements such as the bases of the kitchen containers, the table and the bench in worn wood.

The result of the renovation recalls the past of this space and blends with a vintage style decoration enriched by some design elements, which give the most appropriate finishing touch.

The secret to furnishing an industrial style house , in fact, is to maintain modern and clean lines, minimal furnishings and finishing everything with some vintage-looking elements .
