Speaking of industrial style, what do you think of first?
Is it a traditional rough and hard iron sheet? Exposed pipes? A mottled red brick wall? Coarse-grained concrete or unpolished old wood?
The industrial style that many people come into contact with first comes from bars and restaurants. The friends of the Imperial Capital can meet the serious industrial style and should thank 798!
From the above description, you can generally understand that the industrial style is not acceptable to everyone, but it must be said that this versatile style has its unique charm.
When the industrial wind began to pour into the home space, not only the old elements began to change in shape and raw materials, but also diversified building materials such as glass, leather and cement paint were brought in, making it begin to appear more exquisite light industry design. After reading this article, maybe you will have a new understanding of it.
How did the industrial wind come from?
This will be the first industrial revolution, and these industrial heritage countries have accumulated a large number of young artists.
Because of poverty ... they found an old factory/warehouse that had been abandoned for a long time and rented it at a very low price as their residence.
Or because of poverty ... money must be spent on the cutting edge, and a penny is spent as two cents. I don't have that much money to paint walls and floors, so I can simply paint walls in dirty places. However, the original brick pattern could not be covered at all, leaving a mottled red brick wall.
Anyway, the floor is not dirty, smelly or moldy, so there is the current "original ecology" cement floor.
Some old machines that can't be used in the factory can only be left there because they can't be removed and moved, and the original lights of the factory are used as much as possible for lighting.
Furniture, etc. , you can use the original facilities in the factory as much as possible. Waste parts were pieced together to make tables or chairs. If you can't put them together, you can go to the garbage dump at the door or go to the flea market.
What if there is no decoration?
I can only pick up some inexplicable "garbage" and piece it together into a bunch of shapes that everyone can't understand. And then call it ── modern art.
This is the birth of the industrial wind.
Industrial style was born in a special era and environment. European and American countries, which have accumulated a lot of industrial heritage since the first industrial revolution, have very unique conditions to breed this style. I didn't expect the whole world to create a "careless" industrial style.
It is different from all other styles, and it is not beautiful that everyone can understand.
The retro tone of craft style may bring warm visual feeling and warm experience, and the crisscross of minimalist lines can also create a non-monotonous space. Although it is full of playfulness, it can be mixed with some tenderness in toughness, so that the rough texture becomes a delicate expression.
However, from the beginning, our apartment was very different from that in Europe. It will be more terrible than learning from others if you imitate hard and don't understand other people's culture and environment at all.
How to create an industrial style at home?
Pay attention when you start choosing photos. First of all, no matter how beautiful the industrial style you see in cafes and bars, you can't move directly to your home. Commercial space is different from residence.
Then, beautiful photos may not be suitable for your home, some of them look really emotional ~ but beautiful photos are different from actually living in it.
Don't wear industrial style all over your body, only extract one or two elements of industrial style you like, especially the rest place, to reduce roughness and increase the warm and comfortable atmosphere, and you should have enough comfort when sitting and lying down.
Remember the three main points of industrial style. The first is to highlight the retro features and show the sense of the times. The second is the application of various industrial materials. The third is that the industrial style is not necessarily a deliberate pursuit of "untidiness", nor is it just loft.
Note: As I said before, you only need to extract one or two elements of industrial style, so you don't need to use each of the following points, just pick what you like and suit your home.
Focus 1: pipeline exposure+iron metal
At first, poor artists had no money to make fine ceilings and repairs, so all the structures were exposed and became the best decoration.
Open-wire hydropower is not slotted, although you will see the pipeline and the whole lamps are exposed, but open-wire can also be very stylish.
The stereotype is that the exposed pipes are not beautiful, but the exposed wires can also be very attractive space decoration after design, which also saves the engineering and cost of the ceiling. You know, the ceiling is a big expense.
In addition, iron metal originally belongs to the legacy of the factory/old warehouse, which can greatly enhance the aesthetic feeling of the space through modern design.
This collocation can be seen in many cases.
Point 2: Original Textured Wall+Original Textured Floor
0 1 brick wall
The essence of industrial style is to show the natural appearance of space. Many people especially like red brick walls, thinking that the walls of rough houses can be used directly.
If it is an old brick-concrete structure house, there will be brick walls exposed on the foundation wall. Check the current situation to see if there is sand falling. If the foundation is good, you can simply repair it and brush a layer of transparent varnish. If the situation is not good, please give up decisively and don't be persistent. ?
It is difficult to have red bricks in new houses now, but there is something called artificial cultural bricks, which can have the effect of "primitive nudity". Coarse with nature and unique charm is a great weapon to add a sense of literature and art to the space. It has red, white, black and gray, and the colors are also very rich.
Floors, whether wood floors or similar cement floors, can be matched with brick walls, and there are many choices.
Usually only one brick wall is needed to produce the indoor effect, and there is no need to have brick walls on all sides. An apartment like the one below is different from our country and cannot be copied.
The following pictures are for reference.
02 cement wall
In addition to brick walls, cement walls with the same original texture are also one of the choices.
In some cases, it will present the double original effect of cement wall and cement floor. Be careful, the concrete floor should not last too long.
It is basically impossible to build a perfect concrete floor. The cement floor will crack, turn yellow and turn black. It can only be said that prevention should be taken as early as possible in construction projects. In fact, there are many smarter choices, such as cement waterproof floor tiles, such as epoxy flooring. ......
* Epoxy floor
In the following case, cement walls and imitation cement floor tiles are used.
This house is located in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan Province Province. The owner is a couple and their daughter who is in primary school.
Husband and wife have different expectations of space style. The man is an iron and steel engineer, who has a strong interest in metal and iron parts and advocates the rough cement industry style. The hostess is a stewardess, with a delicate mind, willing to contact with various cultures and new things, and looking forward to the simplicity of Japanese style and the humanistic and scientific texture of Northern Europe.
Many people worry that all cement will feel depressed, but in fact, it will not feel this way when designed. When designing dynamic line patterns, designers give priority to the openness of space and visual penetration, so that outdoor natural light can be sprinkled into the room with the passage of sunlight, and the gray space presents different feelings over time.
If the material of cement floor tile is a bit "fierce" for you, it is also good to choose wood floor, such as the warm wood industrialist below.
03 white wall
No one said that white walls can't create an industrial style. As long as there are other elements of industrial style at home, such as open ceilings and classic furniture, it will not prevent you from enjoying this unique experience.
Point 3: black and white ash+brown logs
The industrial wind born of poverty and changed by poverty mostly presents the primary colors of building materials, and rarely sees colorful colors.
Dark colors are mainly used to set off natural and simple industrial colors. In the overall color matching, black, white, gray and brown log colors are the main colors.
First of all, feel the minimalist (cold) black and white ash:
Not many young people can accept this style. If you choose black, white and gray, you should pay attention to your housing pattern, have a good sense of transparency, and don't screw it up, otherwise something called "depression" will follow.
Most people prefer this log-colored industrial style, which is warmer and more humane. The picture below shows a house, the walls and floors are original cement textures. However, a large number of wood colors are used in the room, plus some bright furniture embellishment, which will not feel dull and indifferent, but has a soothing power.
The following one is different. White brick wall+colored tiles+retro leather sofa is a relatively light industrial style. The room adds femininity through wooden furniture and green plants, and the atmosphere of life will be stronger. Suitable for friends who like industrial style but don't want to "push too hard"
The following light industry design style is suitable for girls, with wooden walls and cement-like floor tiles. The room is mainly wood color and clean white with green plants. It has many elements of industrial style, but there are different ways in color. Industrial style is not necessarily rough, tough and minimalist.
We have finished talking about the three key points of industrial style, and the next article will continue to talk about the key points of furniture selection. Remember to come and see it on time ~
