INDUSTRIAL HOUSE: A HOME WITH COHESIVE EXPOSED MATERIALS
Home design often reflects the character of its occupants. If it follows a Scandinavian style, you can be sure that the homeowners are minimalistic and not fond of home decor. If it embraces Shabby Chic, it's likely that the residents enjoy a more colorful and sweet atmosphere.
So, what about industrial design? This design concept is less commonly chosen by homeowners because it demands more effort during construction and requires regular maintenance. Nevertheless, some still opt for industrial home design. Those who choose this style aim to create a naturally warm atmosphere in their homes. Warmth is achieved through materials commonly found in industrial homes: wood, metal, and unfinished walls.
