Industrial Style Furniture & Shelving to Get the Urban Look in Your Home

Industrial style furniture has surged in popularity, becoming a favourite for those looking to infuse their homes with a raw, urban edge.

An urban home often takes a more minimalist approach, enjoying a spacious feel that complements city living. And, through the blend of industrial and minimalist styles with materials such as metal and wood, you can achieve a rustic urban feel that ensures your home does not lack in character.

A lot of homes are designed with this particular style choice in mind, but if you are looking to turn your home into an urban-orientated space, you can make a few tweaks that can transform the decor.

Characterised by its blend of metal, wood, and utilitarian design, industrial style shelving and furniture can transform any space into a stylish, contemporary area.

 

Here are certain furniture pieces that can have the desired effect to achieve an urban look in your home:

 

Freestanding shelf units are a key decorative piece

 

Where an urban home often enjoys a sparser landscape, ensuring your space isn’t too lacking in decorative pieces can be achieved through a freestanding shelf unit. It is the perfect solution to enjoy displaying photographs, plants and ornaments without overwhelming the area.

 

A freestanding shelf unit can also be made into a statement piece in the room, if you prefer, depending on where you place it and how you decorate it; you can make it as minimal or as loud as you’d like.

 

Our Modern Oak 4-Shelf Freestanding Unit has warm brown wooden shelves with a black metal frame, and it would be an impressive piece to enhance that urban feel in your home. We also have a corner freestanding shelf unit for a more subtle piece of industrial furniture to add just a gentle touch of urban chic to a room.

 

Wall shelf units can enhance your walls

 

If you don’t have the space for a freestanding shelf unit, or would prefer to decorate your walls instead, a wall shelf is the ideal choice to incorporate an industrial touch to your decorative accessories.

 

Again, you can display plants and ornaments and achieve that minimal, industrial interior style at the same time.

 

Our Golden Oak Wall-Mounted Shelf is ideal for adding an understated touch of industrial charm to your walls, and our 70cm Rectangular Wall Shelf Unit in black is a stunning choice of industrial style shelving to uniquely achieve that urban theme with its stark and eye-catching design.

 

Enhance a space with an industrial table  

 

An important piece of furniture in a room is your coffee table, as this is often a centrepiece for a social area. When designing a space to be based on an urban theme, bigger pieces of furniture must follow the trend in order to set the tone of the room.

 

Our Set of 2 Vibrant Oak Round Nesting Tables have a warm wooden top with black metal legs, offering that homely yet minimalist touch – and we also have this design in a console table, perfect for hallways and subtle decorative displays.

 

For a more eye-catching piece of industrial furniture, our Set of 2 Black Criss Cross Tables with Glass Top has a simple yet unique design and would provide the perfect touch of individuality to an urban-themed home. 

 

Find urban chairs that add a touch of character

 

When considering how to create that urban look, many of us can be at risk of taking minimalism too far. A home without character is less inviting and less homely, which isn’t what an urban home prioritises.

 

With stylish seating, you can instantly fill your home with more personality, and it can create a focal point that centres your space for entertaining guests.

 

Our Set of 2 Alridge Dining Chairs in Suede Brown is the perfect combination of industrial and chic, with dark black metal legs and a warm brown coloured seat. Having these chairs placed around your dining table or having them as chairs in your living room would provide enough style and flair without taking away from the urban feel.
